    Hey guys,what are YOUR views on some of the posters on Utube, who post video clips on life in LOS? Some are well posted with great facts and information. Quality clips.

    Finally got a modern new tele.  Comes with dozens of apps.  And just plain  Google.  Not to be confused with paid Google TV.  Of course, all can be viewed on cell phone, tablet, laptop, desktop.  

    One can do a search on any subject.  Then as one views a subject Google algorithms can provide almost any subject.

    Some videos on 'tube can be very educational and some are just ordinary people with a camera walking around.  

    For non-Thailand I view:  Harald Baldr, Bald and Bankrupt, Simon Wilson.  Just a few.  

    Then there are Thailand dedicated videos.  The quality of subject matter varies greatly.  And yes, I have stumbled upon a few good ones and many not so good.

    They all make money from 'tube by the advertisements thrown in by Google. The income is directly related by the number of views.  And other methods.

    Why the American people have turned against Biden

    Wayne Allyn Root points out, 'Trump obviously never lost a single voter fraud case'

    Something remarkable is happening in America.

    You can see it by looking at the forensic audits happening in Arizona, Georgia and New Hampshire. Many more audits are surely on the way.

    Americans are finally seriously questioning the results of the 2020 presidential election. The light bulb has gone off. Americans are no longer afraid to say out loud that they think the election was stolen...

    Auditors Find No Fraud in Disputed New Hampshire Election

    Try as they may.  It ain't any voter fraud.

    It is? I thought it disappeared years ago. I've had breakfast at the Bus Stop, good value.  But I haven't seen any "new Golden Beer Bar".  It is now a Hooters.

    https://bangkok112.com/the-golden-beer-bar-closes/

    p.s. On the positive side, the freelancers still congregate at the Nana Hotel car park(or at least will again after the lockdown is over).

     

     

    Thanks Flash.  

    Yep.  That's my stool.  Well.   Not mine.  But my favourite daytime/afternoon Heineken spot.  

  4. Nana area.

    Got one of those new fangled smart  tele - with YouTube videos.  

    So I search/type Nana Hotel.  And voila.  A bunch of amateur videos comes up about the Nana Hotel and the Nana Plaza - area.

    Good Lord. What the hell is Hooters doing in the Nana Hotel?   My favourite stool on the end of the Golden Beer Bar - facing Nana Hotel vehicle entrance/exit  - outside/side/front Nana Hotel is GONE.! 

    Don't stop thinking about tomorrow - YESTERDAY'S GONE !

  5. There is a website someplace that explains the differences.

    As I recall.  There are 5 variants.  The cheaper one has plastic bezel and battery mechanics.  There is the Chinese replica.  The Japanese Replica.  And actually there is a Swiss made replica.  

    Have been advised to always get the silver colored bands.  Never the gold colored bands - as they turn greenish with moisture. 

    I paid $ US 20-40 dollars.  Prices do vary from place to place. 

  6. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole Trump clan, is exposed to financial ruin and that this will happen once the Russian thing hits the fan properly, and when Trumperbelle's tax records finally are made public and when the anti trade actions, the USA is instigating, start to bite and the economy tanks...

     

    Well stated !

     

    Just a matter of time.

  7. Hopefully, we can get qualified rich

    citizens to run (except Mark Zuckerberg). But without the nepotism and conflicts of interest involving the rich person's financial portfolio. The last 2 have a good chance of sinking the Trump Presidency, if the Russia prope doesn't.

     

    This has been stated time and time again. Over and over. For many elections. Local, State, and Federal.

     

    IT DOES NOT WORK.

     

    Just because someone runs/starts a successful business has absolutely no bearing of becoming a successful government leader.

     

    Older case in point.

    Governor Craig Benson.

    Start up company - Cabletron.

    Became successful and rich.

     

    Ran for and won NH governor. 2 year term.

     

    Promised to bring "business" practices to the state house. Cut "waste, fraud, and abuse".

     

    One of Benson's first acts was to tell all state department heads to cut 10% from all annual budgets. Neat. Except.

    Cut the court system 10%. The task for the court system 10 % was given to the chief judge at state Supreme Court system. There they just cut court clerks and typists.

    The result. Months and in some cases years of back log delays in court cases. To the point that Governor Benson rescinded the cut of 10%.

    The state roadways went into disrepair. Long lines at the DMV. And on and on.

     

    Upon Governor Benson's run for re-election he was asked why nothing had been accomplished in his first 2 year term - his answer was - "I need another 2 year term - to get all of the items that he had promised to do.

     

    Governor Benson was voted out and never to run for public office again.

     

    So much for a "businessman" to run government !

  8. Ah . . . . . . . .Times - they are a changing . . . .

     

    Thank you Stickman.

     

    For decades I would refer folks to the Stickman web site for a good read. Those that would listen to my Thailand travel adventure tales. Those that would dream of a trip to Bangkok, Thailand and beyond.

     

    An institution that over time will turn into a fond memories.

     

    Thank you Stickman for the adventure we all call Thailand.

  9. It should be noted that Alex Jones has admitted in a legal statement that everything he says is an "act" and not reality. Poor Alex is caught in a divorce proceeding and Alex is seeking visitation rights for young child.

    His wife thinks that he is nuts and dangerous.

    Even after Alex Jones stated that all is made up and an act his listenership continues undaunted.

    What does all of this mean?

     

    It means that the listeners of Alex don't care if what he says is an act and made up and false - they just love to listen to listen to his rants and conspiracy theories. True of untrue.

    What does that say about Alex Jones listeners?

  10. VP Pence hired a private attorney to represent Pence.

     

    NOW . . . wait for it . . . the private attorney that represent Pence has also hired an attorney to represent himself (the attorney)

     

    Yes, it gets complicated. But the attorney has hired an attorney for himself.

  11.  

    How much longer can Trump keep it up? I do think his voters might turn violent if he is impeached ....

     

    What the US needs is a successful businessman to run the federal government. Run it as a business.

     

    Waste, fraud, and abuse will be eliminated. The government will be run more efficiently. With less taxes.

  12. The Tsarnaev Brothers were Lone Wolf's (or Wolves).

    Boston Marathon Bombing.

     

    From my limited knowledge, they were self radicalized. Grew up in a somewhat middle class neighborhood in US.

    The older brother did make one trip to Russia to visit family. Did come from the rough part of greater Russia.

     

    These two did figure out how to make a b*mb. Two of them. And components for more.

     

    I have no idea if the size of the Boston ones were similiar to the Manchester one.

     

    On another note. Timothy McVeigh was a good old boy. Christian. White. USA born and bread. USA military veteran. Some have stated they (McVeigh had a partner) were Neo/natzi or alt-right extremists.

     

    One key difference is that the Tsamaev Brothers and McVeigh and partner wanted to get away - to do more. Not self destruct at time of incident.

     

    But the sad conclusion is that all of us have to live or die with fruitcakes such as these in our midst.

     

    My prayers go out to the children and families of those in Manchester - UK.

  13. "An Australian woman claims she was thrown in US immigration detention after arriving in Hawaii for a romantic getaway with her boyfriend — because officials read her diary and decided she had no plans to go home."
