brilliant, elegant and yet simple

not being involved in military conflict in first decade of XXI century did not prevent certain country located between Belarus and USA from attacking her neighbour and being first country post World War II to change borders in Europe by force. I , with many other hope an pray that we will be able to say the same highlighted part about certain country between Latvia and North Korea before w we close our eyes forever. But since you mentioned US and Cambodia , I'm 100% sure that we agree that USA committed many gravely since against Cambodia in 70 and 80 ties, starting with Lon Nol coup, through secret bombings (Mr. Kissinger, hope you are not cold in hell ? ) to supporting UN seat for Democratic Kampuchea fully knowing about Khmer Rouge atrocities.

That's not a point which average product of Russian schooling with their cult of war and military will take well. Picture this : Perestroyka times under Gorbatchev, Trans Siberian train stops in Novosibirsk, heavily pregnant lady and her husband are boarding, elderly couple, presumably parents or in-laws are sending them off and elder lady says " bring back son, we need a lot of border guards " . Who heard that ? among others myself looking through the window

wonder no, worry yes. It's always worrying if unpredictable and autocratic country tries to expand it's sphere of influence.

exactly, word for word, what I heard from mine on the way from new Siem Reap airport

there's big difference between being detained and freed shortly after and jailed for 6 years.

from bars ?

my thought exactly I noticed that with age I like better to break my long range flights somewhere on the way as sitting 15 hrs in the same seat seems too tiring

glad to hear you feel better , ready to take on Japan. I suspect AC set too low could be reason for your health troubles. have fun in Osaka

indeed it does !

tell them you don't like having suitcase in the same room where you sleep

also Japan and Poland, both above South Africa and Brazil ? and Belarus in level 4- do not travel ? the same level with Yemen, Somalia an Haiti ? To put it politely , that list doesn't look like being exactly accurate

Chicken with nuts plate looks yummy. Vote Trump advice generates urge to vomit though ( not related to dish just consumed)

yes and in some places don't forget to pack your baseball bat

why make life so complicated ?

not a healthy diet

I bet they are and they should. Now they have their pick who is old, possibly fragile , with doubts sown of how he will perform at end if his demanding term when he will be even older.

no, but neither I met Blanche

Patnawet already explained, my post removed

Oh, the same like Blanche from 'Golden Girls'

proof that one can be business genius and still idiot

indeed !

about 10-15 minutes, I did the walk at least twice, well past midnight and at no moment did feel unsafe, streets were mostly deserted. Remork may cost 1-2 $ max and those are easy to be found on 136th str where bar is ( for uninitiated, Space Hair is hair saloon during day and bar with hunky hosts at night, crew is different during day and at night so no haircut but the hunk)

it was something in the air yesterday. Almost the same happened to me while booking short, 2 day hop. Just before hitting 'pay now' I noticed that return date is day later so managed to correct is before paying. those things happen occasionally , once I was asked to drive family of 4 to the airport on their way to Australia. We were almost at the terminal when wife looking at the tickets (remember those ? ) said to husband " John , we are flying tomorrow , not today ". That's only beginning of the story, when they returned home , bit disappointed they found they left back door to the garden wide opened. Sort of happy ending !
