  1. On Saturday, The Daily Beast reported that "just one day after several municipal deputies in Putin’s hometown of St. Petersburg called on the State Duma to try the Russian leader for treason, their colleagues in Moscow joined in and demanded he steps down because his views are 'hopelessly outdated.'" In an open letter to Putin, deputies from Moscow's Lomonosovsky district recalled that Putin's leadership began with "good reforms" but that as time marched onward, “everything went wrong.” While the deepening quagmire in Ukraine was not specifically mentioned, the authors stressed that the status quo under Putin is untenable. “The rhetoric that you and your subordinates use has been riddled with intolerance and aggression for a long time, which in the end effectively threw our country back into the Cold War era. Russia has again begun to be feared and hated, we are once again threatening the whole world with nuclear weapons,” the officials wrote. “We ask you to relieve yourself of your post due to the fact that your views and your governance model are hopelessly outdated and hinder the development of Russia and its human potential."
  2. Police Road stops for inspection Friday night 02:00 am in Pattaya.
  3. You might notice a lingering smell in the streets of Boystown at night…
  4. I had spent my 65th birthday in Thailand and was so happy I did. Hadn’t been there for four years so this one hit hard the second I saw him waiting at Nice Boys. He knew how to flirt with dazzling eyes and beautiful smile. It hurt to leave after vacation and I worried about him each day I wasn’t working. Sent him enough money to feed him mother and children and his travels. I knew he had really become sick in the hospital because the emails asking for money went silent. Cancelled trip because of CoVid in March 2020. Moved the ticket to his birthday in August to impress him and make it up to him, but he made it no further beyond July 4th when I got the call. Two years later I really am not much better Just returned for his birthday in August and merit for him at the temple. Why should I be better- he is still gone.
  5. Killed the cash cow. Friend of my deceased friend had many emergencies the past weeks. 3 am I get a call- need 3000 baht- scratched motorbike. Wants to not file police report. Next day or so girlfriend sick go to doctor. Next day girlfriend in hospital. The next day could I reimburse his mother for 3000 baht hospital trip. Pressing the limits of probability the next day he had to go to the hospital- 2000 baht. This time I asked for a picture of the receipt. He send one the next day - no patient name, date, or hospital name. The following day he somehow lost 1500 baht. Then he needed another 3000 baht for the scratch on the motorbike again. Around my final day I gave him 5000 baht as a parting gift. Wasn’t 6 hours later”could I send 1500 baht for something to eat?” I was giving him 2-3000 daily just to help him bank some money. Now he is on restricted Messenger. Hated to do that but I was in a bad mood after missing my flight.
  6. Had to message a friend in USA with credit card and passport numbers. She could buy a one way ticket for Friday morning for $966 includes insurance. I was guessing $8000…
  7. Bought plane ticket via BudgetAir.com. Couldn’t get American Airlines to register me for online check in. Missed check in (Pattaya road construction, slow taxi driver, long check in queue). Travel insurance is only good for medical reason so now I get to purchase a new round trip and throw away the return leg. Two different airlines. AA and Qatar. My niece used to work at AA (and STILL flies for free). Hoping to get advice from her but she’s in Rome vacationing and not getting my messages yet. She did say if you don’t buy from the airline not to expect much. I thought the taxi would only take an hour and leaving Pattaya 4 hours early would be no problem with three hours early.
  8. And they’re just STARTING to take anti-aging research seriously… check YouTube -actual physicians posting early trials/supplements
  9. The digital prostrate exam is not as fun as it sounds… Cleveland Clinic does an IsoPSA that gives better results and prevents some unwarranted biopsies that really aren’t fun. But dying doesn’t sound like fun either. After prostratectomy, injectable ED medication therapy 2-3 times a week raises erection recovery to 50% by a new smaller study.
  10. Eat salmon and blueberries for optimum nutrition. You might want to check out Biaural Beats on YouTube. This has been shown to reduce plaque in the brain. Personally I believe the plaque is a result of infection. Smoker? I took Chantix and got incredible dreams almost all night long. REM sleep increases the “washing of the brain” and I feel great once I got used to the 1/2 dosage my doctor approved. Not always approved by your insurance. They should seriously investigate this. But you can always tell your doctor you picked up the habit and have him prescribe it for you. I also enjoy the dreams - like HBO for your dreams.
  11. Online prescriptions/doctors. Tried one place online- no prescription and they sometimes send 12 junk emails daily for their Canadian “Pharnacy”
  12. And here I have already broken a cardinal rule of Thailand. Don’t tell them when you are leaving. Yesterday his girlfriend is needing to go to the doctor and he is visiting the hospital today.
  13. https://www.inverse.com/article/55432-erectile-dysfunction-drug-cialis-heart-failure-treatment Good news for sheep but more studies will be done. Some of us need this now. Actually prescribed for me after my prostrate cancer surgery for rehab and still taking this at my own expense.
  14. And especially when business has been hit by CoVid for the last 2 1/2 years. My friend passed over two years ago (TB) and I still take care of his “husband” who cared for him. Trying to encourage him to find a job or enlist in the army at 29 years old. Tried cutting his allowance and he just ends up in the street.
  15. Wondering with the presence of hot Cambodian boys all over Pattaya if anyone thinks Cambodian boys are less scamming of farang patrons. Fell for Thai boy 3 years ago after a 4 year absence but I feel he was well worth it. Of course they all need to eat year around…
  16. Still like chicken here but bigger nuts are hot too…
  17. Stunner working at Toyboys… Cambodian with sweet face and unusually perfect chest.
  18. First flight is delayed an hour to Dallas. Now I have TWO MINUTES to make connecting flight to Doha, wherever that is. Then on to BKK. Was supposed to leave today... Of course it's two different airlines and took ages to line up my vacation to my deceased friends birthday.

    As bad as business is for them I prefer to pay full price to them. Silly, huh? Was just having trouble at first and tried to delete post but no delete button. Quickly confirmed after I paid. Last trip in 2019 I tried really hard to look up Nai (LCR). Anybody heard anything from the old staff there?

  24. BudgetAir was just trying to sell me a prearranged visa too... At nominal cost https://visacentral.com/
  25. Kayak.com through Quatar or American only wants $1700 round trip in August. Hmmm maybe late birthday in September would be ok too. Do I need insurance or anything to get visa?
