Do you want that I should tell you who is this COOLEST dude UTUBER with his BEAUTIFUL house which he built himself in Thailand? 

 

He drives an old truck wherever he roams. 

 

His UK home is by the sea. 

 

Who is he? 

 

A very unpretentious soul is he.

 

Try as one might, you just can't find nothing wrong with him. 

 

He calls himself, James, but probably not his real name. 

 

Seems that he came to Thailand and fell in love, 20 years ago... 

 

And now, he is wishing he were in Portugal. 

 

Maybe it's not so easy to come to Asia, live here for 45 years, and then NEVER return to the West. 

 

45 Fing years in Asia, Man! 

 

Try, if you will, to wrap your pea brains around that number! 

 

It's only logical that most of you haven't a clue what I'm gabbing about. 

 

But, I never hold this against you. 

 

Do I? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the way, when grinding glass in order to produce a mirror suitable for gazing at the stars, then the heat of the grinding produces a supercooled glass fluid. 

 

Some guys just think they know something, when actually, they don't know enough in enough detail. 

 

That's right. 

 

Glass can become a supercooled fluid during the glass grinding process. 

 

Hole in One, Baby!

Jack Nicholson. 

A New Jersey original. 

 

Will there ever be another quite like him? 

 

Five Easy Pieces 

 

I would gladly give my life, just to see him do one more movie. 

 

Jack in a midshipman's hat. 

 

Jack Nicholson. 

 

He had the eyebrows. 

 

And, most of you can't handle the truth. 

 

 

[GammaGlobulin]

James, 

 

Wherever you are. 

 

You have one heck of a DYNAMITE channel! 

 

DYNAMITE!

I support that YouTuber that you should move to Portugal.

Hi, Chickenslegs, 

 

I know that you are reading this topic. 

 

Care to share a thought, or two?

I am thinking that you expose your true nature with comments such as that above.

Pea Brain, you mean. 

 

Yes. 

The bane of my existence, even from my early age. 

 

And, thank you.

If referring to tobacco smoke, there are designated smoking and non-smoking cafes indicated by red or blue signs. In the smoking, overhead extraction systems remove most of the smoke. Good for protection of staff!

I don't think it is compulsory to take part...

It's an intermediate state between molten glass and an amorphous solid. Ephemeral.

I guess I had better chuck my chemistry degree and years of experience in the glass industry in the bin, and bow to your superior knowledge,

Yes. It is neither one nor the other....agreed.

 

Did you ever work for Corning?

 

Corning, years ago, donated glass blanks to me for my projects.

 

I have only good things to say about this glass company.

 

I still recall the good old days when we were not so sure how to make glass fiber which was flexible to carry light and still be usable for the real world use of the great Internet.

 

To me, that day when we did not yet possess the glass technology seems just a moment ago, looking back.

 

Life here on this orb is just so very fleeting.

 

By the way, as I am sure that you already realize, within the next decade, Humankind will completely lose History. History will END, and this is a Known Known.

 

To me, this will be the gamechanger to end all games.

 

Wait and see, my friend.

Little in common with Luxemburg. Portugal has a 10% tax on foreign pensions.
