Police Arrest Fugitive After Threatening Relatives with Gun, Challenging Authorities Online
OK, I have to comment on the headline ... "Police Arrest Fugitive After Threatening Relatives with Gun, Challenging Authorities Online" The way I read the headline is, The police arrested a fugitive after the police threatened his relatives with a gun and after police challenged authorities on line. Shouldn't the headline be more like, Police arrested a fugitive after he threatened his relatives with a gun and challenged authorities online. This isn't just an aseannow thing. I read headlines like this here in the U.S. of A. as well, frequently! Maybe it's just me. I did have a late start reading, having failed the second grade the first time, because I could not read. Thank goodness that there were educators who were not politically correct back in the 1950's and had no qualms about failing a child in school who child not read. I could read by the end of my second year in the second grade and by the end of the 3rd grade was reading and understanding 6th grade literature. -

President Joe Biden's Historical Legacy is Ruined
He ruined all chance for himself and his party on the day he pulled out the file of sanctions against Russia that plunged entire Europe and ultimately the USA in economic chaos and pauperization. Worse, he turned a blind eye to the war crimes in Gaza and continued the US supply of arms and weapons. Many European nations are calling for an arms embargo and sanctions against Israel and are calling for an independant Palestinitian territory. How can any civilized world tolerate all the land grabbing and violence against palestinians in the West Bank with people just being expelled from their own homes that are bulldozed down for the jewish settlers ? There are a majority of people in Israel who are equally outraged on what their country is doing in Gaza and the West Bank. And no need to rush and claim these words are anti-semitic as they are not. -

Photo-story - Where my bike’s been
Last Thursday I took the advantage of a public holiday to take round some local hills, including Tin Hau Temple (I forgot to turn three times to starboard, so I feel at risk of capsize) and then to the Mayor’s palace for a look out over the city After a few ciders at Sid’s (use your imagination!) I headed home, and back out in the evening to the Bell& for Depavali fireworks -

Why I left Thailand
That's my point of view on life as well. As long as life keeps being somewhat enjoyable, it's worth to cling to keep living. But as soon as being alive becomes a burden to yourself and/or others, it's better to stop the medication and the doctors and leave this place quietly. About 3 years ago, my ex-wife in Belgium was hospitalised again. Every year, as winter set in, she had respiration troubles and was hanging the winter on a respiration device. This time, she signed a paper asking not to be put on machines. She died in her sleep, very quitly. Without suffering. I hope that when my time comes, I can do the same.- 1

What is one thing you learned from lefties?
If I could I would vote for Mr Trumpet, absolutely no hesitation...... but the lefties are nevertheless the only ones brave enough to protest against the war crimes in the West Bank, Gaza or Lebanon or the attack triggered on the walkie talkies and beepers which some killed innocent bystanders. So I guess both the right wing and the lefties have things that can appeal to each and everyone as per one's own convictions. -

Thailand's Expats Urged to Register with TRD for Tax, Says Expert
We know different people. I hardly know anybody who spends more than 50000 a month. (But sure, I know these people exist. ) And many people aren't here 12 months per year.
