Meanwhile here they protest the right of Palestinians to a state, the end of the Israeli genocide and an end to the killing. Scurrilous stuff.Thu, 21 May 2026 12:57:11 +0000Life is so simple here I haven't had "bills" in three decades... before that I'd always shunned debt but the only bill I have is rent and utilities. I just give six months to the wife and let her deal with it. Oh! One year internet about US 55$. 70gb mobile pm. My car is sleek Siemens subway.

Trump has destroyed that, these days nobody listens or even cares whether Trump stands falls down or issues any of his stupid tweets he's a joke and has taken the once mighty USA down with him.Thu, 21 May 2026 12:51:30 +0000I had thought that this was strictly a Farang Thing.... Obviously, I had been mistaken. Such a waste. Things do not always work out as expected here in Thailand, for newcomers at least. One of the most difficult realities to deal with, here in Asia, is unrequited love. If at first one does not succeed,.... Try, try, and try, again. Live to fight another day.Thu, 21 May 2026 12:49:54 +0000That is also over confidence...............walk into wrong room...........exit with none.........Thu, 21 May 2026 12:48:27 +0000So, you stated earlier that you thought Trump would strike Iran last Sunday.

It opposes the State of Israel on religious grounds, i.e., a belief that Jews can only be restored to the Holy Land by the coming of the Messiah. They follow a very strict interpretation of traditional Jewish law in daily life. Neturei Karta's members believe political Zionism and the State of Israel are a sacrilegious affront to God. They believe they have a biblical imperative to work for the destruction of Israel. They are convinced the best way to do this is to align themselves with or support other anti-Israel groups, including Islamists and neo-Nazis. The group was founded in 1938 and has been on the outer edge of Judaism since then, shunned by other Jews, including anti-Zionist Jews. "The more mainstream ultra-Orthodox community" has been led "to join the broader Jewish community, to disavow and repudiate Neturei Karta. Indeed, Neturei Karta’s views are not in any way representative of the vast majority of the Jewish community.

She was 45 yo then and we're still together. The reason she went to a bar was her husband died when he was 33 yo ( motor bike ) She lived by herself for 12 years and life was tough bringing up 2 teenage daughters. So when her kids moved out she went to Pattaya to look for a long term relationship. I met her 5 days later, so it was win/win. There's 2 types of ladies that work in bars, some are looking for a LTR and others it's straight forward gash for cash.Thu, 21 May 2026 12:38:37 +0000What a hell of a way to go.
