Teeth implants
So I am getting old now and have problems with most off my teeth my question is do I get a full set of teeth implants ( I might not live many more years ) Or get some false teeth? What is the cost of a full implant or just a set of false teeth? As you all know it is pretty expansive in the west. Anybody has a full set of teeth removed and had a full set planted or made up false teeth. What is the cost ? For implants or just false teeth (dentures} . So anybody done this either way let me know the approx. price I will be living west of BKK Thanks. -

Democracy has failed the US,maybe it's time for a King
Off the general topic and responding to the Vietnam protest point. Many years ago, I read a news article about the KGB and the Vietnam anti-war protests. It came out after declassification of KGB files and also claimed by an (ex?) KGB agent that the KGB was secretly involved in the Vietnam anti-war protests, helping to organize them in the U.S. of A. The KGB agent claimed their involvement in the U.S. of A. anti-Vietnam war efforts was one of their most successful propaganda coups against the U.S. of A.! And completely off topic.. In late 1971 or early 1972, a U.S. of A. Navy vessel was firing their 16 inch guns at the ( I think) Haiphong harbor and unintentionally shelled a Soviet Navy vessel. Intercepted communications had information of about 50 Soviet Navy members killed in the shelling. Apparently the Soviet Union didn't care as nothing ever came of it. -

400.000 Baht disappeared, a story of BKK Bank, SCB and Advice IT
In my case, my bank credit card and my online banking both share the same login. It's the same for nearly every big American bank. So I can't log into my bank account without logging into my credit card account. That means any online banking I do is the same as doing something with the credit card. In regards to your paranoid conspiracy, I've never seen it in practice. But go on living in fear about it if that helps you sleep better at night. -

Spain plans 100% tax for homes bought by non-EU residents!
LOL No, fella, it's quite real. Sorry, but lots of people are significantly more wealthy than you. I wanted another place outside of the US, and searched for about 2 years. I saw the property I now own and instantly made an offer. Paid cash. I also wanted to do the renovation the right way, and spent some time finding the right artisans to do the work. While I enjoy it, and visit several times a year for a few weeks at a time, I take some satisfaction knowing I am helping to preserve not only history, but the incredible skill of the folks, long since dead and gone, who cut and shaped the oak timbers, gathered and fashioned the stones that make up its 3 foot thick walls, laid the floors, put in all the fireplaces, and made a structure that has lasted centuries. I am told the original church was destroyed during some religious unrest, but rebuilt ~550 years ago. Out buildings include a massive barn and a foundry, used to make all the fixtures and iron bars on the lower windows, as well as the coopering straps for wine casks. As I noted previously, the property was once a working winery, and the structure where the wine was aged still has giant oak casks. Some of the casks fell apart over the years, so the artisans doing renovation use some of the old oak for indoor structures and finishing work. That oak is incredibly hard and quite difficult to work. I insist on using only period materials (save for modern bathrooms and electricity, and a working kitchen), so pointing is done with limestone plaster and any painting uses natural ochres. When a floor needs replacing, I source reclaimed wood. Often in the evening, before sunset, I pour a glass of wine and stroll around the exterior, continually marveling at the work and toasting the folks who long ago built the structure. I've gotten papers from the local commune office that note owners and residents going back to the mid 1400s. Coming from a country where the oldest structures are maybe 200-250 years old, I have an appreciation for things that are much much older. People in my commune swear the structure is haunted, but in all the time I have stayed in it, often alone, not a peep from a ghost. Sometimes a piece of rock will fall from a wall in a nearby room, but as far as 'strange' noises, that's it. Sourcing furniture has also been fun, and like the building itself, I enjoy studying the workmanship long dead artisans could do with less-than-ideal tools. I have brothers and sisters, but I've yet to propagate my own gene pool, so either a sibling gets it, or the state can take it over. In the meantime, I get to enjoy it for the next few decades. And no, I'm not going to post any images. I prefer anonymity, especially since there's lots of crazy folks online. If it makes you feel better thinking this is all a fantasy, knock yourself silly. I don't give a flying eff what anyone thinks. Getting back on topic, Spain might consider that there are structures in their country the average Spaniard is not going to call home. Allowing foreigners to buy and renovate historical structures, without imposing a 100% tax on the buyer, benefits Spanish society as well as Spanish artisans. -

Good question ! I to have had my CC # compromised here! Now when I use my card i dont let them swipe it and I cuff the card so the numbers are never exposed to the shops security cameras. I use the tap to pay feature mostly! I try to stay away from the swipe or insert my card transactions. If there comes a time where I must use this less secure method , I’ll use a card company’s card thats never been compromised! It sucks having been hacked .Those cameras above on the ceiling can zoom in . -

Village People to Perform at Trump’s Inauguration Celebration
Why do all Trump supporters have both the intellect and the sense of humor of a three-year-old with early stages of dementia? I guess it runs in the family.- 2
