Trump’s Puerto Rico fallout is ‘spreading like wildfire’ in Pennsylvania
Yeah, but this was no gaffe- a gaffe is a slip of the tongue or calling someone the wrong name. This was clearly said in anger. So maybe Puerto Ricans are a bit miffed at Tony Hinchcliffe, but half of the voting public is miffed at being called "garbage". I guess he was trying to out-do Hilary and her famous "basket of deplorables" disaster. -

Thailand Postpones Start of Winter Season
No. The declaration of winter alerts NGO's and other social agencies to be prepared for warm clothing and bedding distribution. Localities prone to cold weather are visited by charities donating both. The coldest temperature I experienced was 4 degrees, that would have been January 2016. To be fair I was a guest of a Karien hill tribe family on a mountain top. Around the same time a cold snap hammered Chiang Mai, that was worse as the provision of warm clothing etc didn't stretch into the urban areas. I, and several others, bought blankets for locals. I can't remember if that was 2016 or 17, what did stand out was the number of farang pensioners who were suffering due to the extreme cold. Blankets and warm clothes are always welcome, warm shoes a very welcome bonus, especially for kids. There's nothing sadder than seeing youngsters shivering while wearing flip flops. So if any of you are looking to make a charity donation this winter, go into the second hand shoe shops first and buy up all the training shoes ( sneakers ) etc you can find. Brand new if you like. Why do I say second hand? A certain coterie of hill tribe people are not above receiving the warm clothing etc then selling it on. Cruel? Comical? or poverty needs/must? Whatever. But you'd be surprised at the social structures that kick into place during cold weather snaps. #justsayin' -

Limit on VOAs?
Considering the 60 day's can be extended with another 30, won't the airlines then accept a return ticket within 90 days? -

For the benefit of us numbskulls, please explain the U.S electoral college vote system.
I was recently reading about this and found an interesting quote which said the founders designed the electoral college because they were afraid of "too much" democracy. Ironic because if Trump wins, the U.S. will have NO democracy. -

Over 50 and Feeling the Frustration
Well, you have to have the desire. It just increases the blood flow. But it's the same with Viagra. I have found it effective, anyway. -

How often do you take Tolerance Break. Is it even worth it Lol.
I know you dont realize it, but you are the villiage idiot amongst all the members of Asean Now, George. Why are you always insulting people with your ignorant comments? It’s like you are completely oblivious that you constantly make a fool of yourself. -

No I don't believe Bangkok is cheaper than Jomtien not even close.
