Young English Football Fan Dies of Overdose in Thailand: Inquest Reveals
"Connor Abbott was found dead at his hotel room in the Phra Nakhon district of Bangkok on Sunday, September 22, last year." "Jon Heath, senior coroner for York and North Yorkshire, said the cause of death was morphine toxicity. Identification was confirmed by a funeral director, the hearing at Northallerton Coroners’ Court on Tuesday (March 11) heard." From the GoFundMe link in the York Press article: "thank you so much everyone that has donated the response has been overwhelming we have spoken with wabbots family and will be closing the page down on the 16th Oct when wabbott will be laid to rest." ("wabbot" apparently was his nickname.) So he (allegedly) died last September. I'm guessing somehow it never made the news anywhere in Thailand at the time ? Somehow his body was returned to the UK (which usually requires a sob story published in a UK tabloid with a very large GoFundMe appeal already set up and linked in the article). But it took them until March 2025 to determine cause of death ? And he was (allegedly) buried on 16 Oct 2024 ? But it's just now making the rounds of the tabloid news sites - and Asean Now ? And the GoFundMe they supposedly were closing down last Oct was created on 27 Sept 2024, just 5 days after the alleged death. Strangely enough - they were only trying to raise £2K - but it's STILL OPEN and they've only managed to con people out of just over £1K so far. "Every donation, no matter the size will help ease the financial burden on his grieving family allowing them to give him the farewell he truly deserves." Uh huh. So they could afford to have his body returned to the UK (not a cheap thing to do) but need £2K to ease the financial burden ? Question - what do season tickets to that football club cost ? -

Police Raid Soi Nana, Arrest Foreign Women for Suspected Prostitution
Well pre covid, it used to be 6-10K baht at Mixx. But once a hooker enters a bar off the street, she becomes more expensive. -

Tax Filing Experience: Jomtien [March-2025]
Thanks for the very detailed explanation. So, in all cases, a US citizen is required to report Traditional IRA taxable distributions on one's US tax return and is required to pay taxes on those distributions if they exceed their deductions. Someone seemed to suggest that a US citizen just needs to notify the IRS that they are a Thai tax resident and then one would not have to report the Traditional IRA taxable distributions on their US tax return. That doesn't seem right to me. -

Is Earth round or flat ?
If mass were not attracted to mass (gravity) why would water 'want' to flow down the hole in the first place ? what attracts it ? - would the water not float off into space ? -
