So they're from a backwater town?

So what?

I give them credit for making the move they did.

What you seem to not understand is this:

If you were to give all those who wish to move, "credit", for moving from their backwater towns in the USA....to....THAILAND....then......

Thailand would become no more than the backwater town these people are trying to escape.

HOWEVER, I fully realize that this might not mean much to YOU, since YOU are mostly concerned with your PLAN-B.....

Your Plan-B to escape Thaialnd....

Am I correct?

Well, Thailand is not large enough to accomodate ALL of those in the USA who might wish to escape backwater towns.

China is big enough...but....

Thailand is not.

Do you agree?

This is why, one should have other better motives to come to Thaiand, other than the main motive, which is to escape America, or arrive here, just to live a bit more cheaply than in a backwater town in America.

Or, am I wrong?

I can escape to China...when America's have-nots flood Thailand, or Hua-Hin....

But, can you?

This is the question.

You mean, you and Philadelphia were too big for the both of you?

Same as Fields....????

Home schooling is not something that I'm a big fan of but clearly more economical than an international school here.

Great Idea, Sir.....

Thailand is one of the richest ASEAN countries, and probably even richer than the USA.

Therefore, let's invite everyone from the USA to come and bring their children to the local schools.

Surely, the local school system has plenty of excess funds to teach limitless numbers of American students, for free.

Why send children to International Schools, anyway?

Then, I will need to curb my enthusiasm, I suppose.

Anyway, as I have so often told you....

I love Larry....

No problem, whatsoever, for me....

Did you know that I was 50-percent raised by a black woman with a glass eye?

This is the truth.

Throughout my formative years...

She died, soon after I left for China.

I won't forget her....until the day I die.

(for sure)

But, those were the days.....

Things are not the same now.

Those were the days......

Best regards,

Oh....by the way......

The Alabama song in the Original Topic?

"Alabama" is a scathing critique of the American South’s systemic racism, segregation, and history of Ku Klux Klan violence.

The song directly challenges the region to reconcile its dark past with the rest of the country.

Yet, so far, nothing in America has yet been reconciled.....

Has it?

I give up.

Tired of waiting.

I have read it, ya dufus.

Yes, I am sure you have read Huck Finn.....BUT.....

How many times have you read the The Autobiography of Malcolm X....?

THIS is the question.....

I read it thrice, and for the third time, about 10 years ago.

What impressed me most about Malcolm X (AKA: Detroit Red) was his passion for wearing ZOOT SUITS.....

"During his early years in Harlem and Boston, Malcolm X (then known as "Detroit Red") embraced zoot suit culture, notoriously calling the flamboyant attire a "killer-diller coat". For him and other young Black men of the 1940s, the oversized suit was a bold symbol of rebellion against both white supremacy and middle-class Black respectability." https://www.thoughtco.com/zoot-suit-history-4147678

And, what do you say to those who say Malcolm X was both black and also an antisemite???

Would you say, then, there is no hope for Mankind?

And, if so, then why not just withdraw from the human race, and live in the hills of SiChuan?

Even you, by now, should recognize the futility......right?

Come with me to China, we can live in the mountains of SiChuan, just we two, and be....

TOTALLY Free of prejudice and racism and bias.....

Would you be willing to come with me?

I know the way to a special place in the high mountains of SiChuan, a place with no bias nor prejudice.

Because....

Even Malcolm X was a fraud...

He loved his ZOOT SUITS.....didn't he???
