Ukraine Backs U.S. Ceasefire Proposal, Awaiting Russian Response
Yet you you have "seen" a lot more than I have. Far more progress and detail is required for opinions to be formed. -

Plans Unveiled for 900 Million Overpass Project in Prachuap Khiri Khan to Ease Traffic
Our proposed local overpass, is greatly needed, as are the others that have been completed or will be shortly. Creating true interprovincial highway, without the cross traffic & deadly U-turns. Overpasses are the solution to the deadly U-turns y'all cry about. And the drives North & South of us are much better now. The proposed local intersection is gridlock on weekends & holidays. And yes, it will be an inconvenience for a year or so, but save lives also. Is there really a price tag for lives saved. "Highway 4 (Phet Kasem Road) and Highway 326 (Prachuap Khiri Khan Junction) is 2.7 kms from our house. At peak times, it backs up terribly, that traffic won't make the 1st signal change. I cross every day, on the way to the park (morning walk), to surf or to Makro if taking the car. MB, no prob, as there is already an underpass for that, though not as convenient now. Guess we'll be using a bit more when construction starts. Now that we need to go on that side of the highway more than 2X a month anyway. When you travel to Krung Thep, and feel lucky to average 80 kph, when speed limits range from 90-120 kph, then there's need for improvements. When highway deaths are some of the highest in the world, yea, no cross traffic & no silly U-turns will make a difference. The highway overpasses are well built. Can't say the same about some of those RR overpasses -

My Pattaya Hotel Room and the Unexpected: Not a Happy Ending
Years ago, I went to a short-time hotel in Bangkok. When I arrived at my assigned room with my companion, the maid on that floor immediately switched us to a different room since the original room I was given was still being cleaned. The problem was, the receptionist downstairs wasn’t informed of the change and ended up assigning the room I was in to another customer about 20 minutes later as the receptionist was assuming the room I was in was still vacant. A little while after things got going, I got quite the shock when someone stuck their key card in and opened the door, right as my stark white backside was in the air. Needless to say, it killed the mood a bit. After the shock of the door swinging open (mid-pump), I don’t think I was able to finish the job. Sometimes truth can be stranger than fiction in Thailand. -

There is no such thing as happiness.
There is such a thing as fulfillment. Happiness is a bizarre concept and is very hard to measure. I use the fulfillment and contentment meter. I have known people who are wealthy and have no financial stress whatsoever, and they still find a way to be miserable. We create our own paradise, or our own hell, to some extent. -

Could Trump's plan fail in a spectacular fashion?
I have news for you @Yagoda, @Cameroni and anyone else who thinks the US stock market movements are just a small correction. I am well-versed in stock markets and stock market history. The markets are long overdue a correction. This time, the 'correction' will be deeper and longer than anyone might imagine. You don't know me from Adam, but my advice would be to get out while you can. I won't be offended if you don't but you will remember my words for a very long time. As a single indication of what I believe, Morgan Stanley recently stated that the S&P500 could drop to 5,500 by the summer and then recover to 6,500 by the end of the year. Well, it went as low as 5,528 yesterday. Let's see where it is at the end of this month, let alone summer.... -
