French Olympics - The Last Supper
The Koreans LOVE to wave those tiny flags of Korea, wherever they go. Therefore, how could anyone have confused them for anyone else. I detest flag wavers, though....so....if the announcer got them mixed up with their brothers to the north, then... No harm done. -

Funding / depositing THB from Thai bank account to certain trading platforms
Here are the fees for sending money internationally on the BBL site: https://www.bangkokbank.com/en/Personal/Other-Services/Transfers/-/media/253a57cc639e46f0b9104cb1deda188c.ashx Thanks for the idea but I would like to avoid registering on different platforms in order to ask for their deposit account and then to check with the banks. Account registration and verification will be pain in the neck. -

Thai beauty queen sparks online drama over airline seat
"However, her ticket was for a standard business class seat on a Boeing 777-300ER, which does not feature Qsuite or Premium Economy seating as she had thought." So the standard business class "does not feature ... Premium Economy seating". Not much of a business class if it's below premium economy. -

Lexapro and other prescription drugs
I'm pretty sure that's just the kind of drugs that will not be OTC in Thailand. Antibiotics no problem, psychotropics no way unless you are medically connected. 40 years ago pharmacies in TH would sell you Captagon literally "over-the-counter". They would also show a pack of Temazepam for you to buy together with the Captagon as the two drugs made for a very euphoric combo. Those were the days. -

Olympics sabotage: French trains targeted in coordinated attack
'The Sun' stated that a far left group had claimed responsibility although that is yet to be confirmed. No one has any idea what particular cause the saboteurs were espousing so what was the point? The only thing these acts achieved was to inconvenience the public for no apparent reason. -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Hungary wants to join Russia if you ask Orban , they should be kicked out of EU for good. Hungary’s nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Saturday that the European Union was sliding toward oblivion in a rambling anti-Western speech in which he warned of a new, Asia-oriented “world order” while throwing his support for Donald Trump’s U.S. presidential bid. “Europe has given up defending its own interests,” Orbán said in Baile Tusnad, a majority-ethnic Hungarian town in central Romania. “All Europe is doing today is following the U.S.’s pro-Democrat foreign policy unconditionally … even at the cost of self-destruction.” https://apnews.com/article/viktor-orban-hungary-romania-eu-3ea649669de75d13b0ba3585c0e83239#:~:text=“Europe has given up defending,cost of self-destruction.” -

Landlord refusing to do TM30 ?
In some cases, condo-management handles rentals for owners, and have the needed documents. This was done for for me, before - but I also paid my rent at the condo-office. If you have a separate agent (not condo-mgmt), this is less likely - but cannot hurt to ask. -

Dating In Thailand : On Immaturity
My wife, and my ex. 56 and 60 years old, I think they are both sexy women, and I love them both, mothers to my children. Both of them are bold and confident. Wouldn't go up against either of them in a bar fight cos either of them would kick ur ass, and most likely your balls! Intellectually both of them would drop you in 60 seconds Damn it gets my juices flowing! -

BREAKING NEWS 60-day visa exemptions are now unlimited at land borders
In the recent video, the MFA guy says the new policy for visa-exempt entry can be for purposes other than 'strictly tourism'. Primarily, he talked about the DTV, but did a rabbit-trail on the new 60-day exempt, also: As to how someone can "be a tourist" here beyond a certain time - why not? They could define a number of days, and publish it in the Gazette, if they wanted. Otherwise - not working, goes to beaches, etc (i.e. "spending money" into Thailand) There is nothing saying a tourist cannot pay taxes - as we all do, with VAT, all the time. I have not seen any law/rule in the Gazette on this. As well, there is no legal reason given to immigration to deny entry on "being a tourist too long" - only for illegal-working or otherwise engaged in illegal-activity, or not having the required 20K baht, hotel-booking, and flight-out within the stay-period. Thai immigration is restricted to very specific reasons for denial - in an attempt (futile, at some entry-points) to prevent graft / agent-scams to let people in. -

The New ICE Engines..
We were considering buying one next year, after seeing what bugs get worked out in the first model year, but will be holding off a few more years until we know how the tax situation works out. In the meantime, our Hilux petrol/CNG dual fuel pickup with 400K on the clock is still going strong. -

Thoughts on the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics
Can I interest you in a Number 5? Or, what about a Or, I have it.... A Kandinsky !!! Each one of the above is a MASTERPIECE. And, you don't need to have studied art to appreciate their magnificence. I know beauty when I see it. JS Bach, for example. Beauty in both paintings and music is easy to spot. You can keep your.... Felt.- 1
