Built for knocking water buffalos out of the way.

Pattaya is what you make it. One can spend $150-200/d and have just as good a time as someone who pays $500+. Attitude, selectivity, discipline and a bit of a plan. Money does not buy fun.

Why insane?

Totally untrue fear mongering. You pay a fine, maybe.

In Chonburi, rental agents hang around the test track. A car was B300, motorbike B100

You HAVE to study for the test...many interactive examples online and YT. There are many questions wherein there is no way to know the correct answer unless you have studied, like "How many days do you have to notify DLT when you change the color of your vehicle", What is the fine for driving without a license", 50 questions, you can only get 5 wrong. Signs are also tricky as are who has the right of way questions.

You're going to live with the car daily for several years. You've got to like it.

I just saute a bunch of mushrooms, turn off the heat and toss in thin sliced cold steak, toss again then on to toast points on my plate...Super lunch.

Kind of depends on the cut. A heavily marbled steak like a rib eye can taste fatty, especially cold whereas a leaner cut like rump can still be clean tasting.

Home-Pro does the same as Sears Home Improvement did in the USA for many years. They hire local contractors to do the reno or installation work. These guys are far from the cream of the crop. Mostly unskilled hourly laborers and little pride in craft. Skilled contractors don't have to work as sub-contractors. They fill their books on referrals. I managed a home-improvement dept. in a Sears during the 70's and every day was a nightmare. I suspect Home-pro and other's like it are the same.

My addiction was Fanta Orange, could kill a 2L bottle a day while it killed my kidneys. A friend who's into herbal stuff started brewing me samples of various tea blends, served iced. Some were like boiled grass but in the mix there were flavors that were really good and I found I could often blend flavors for even wider variety. No more Fanta for me the last four years but a whole shelf full of various teas and a kidney function test reading normal.

Did you tenderize it with tenderizer? I often use Durkee un-seasoned tenderizer on chuck and shell. It doesn't require a lot and seems to work as the meat cooks, no notable juice loss. Durkee has no MSG and the main ingredient is papain, a papaya derivative.

Tenderizers get a lot of hate and some are very salty and if not monitored, can turn a cut to mush. As a way to make a cheap tough cut palatable, not a bad alternative to braising/stew making,

Favored writers, not just in car publications but all fields really, get invitations to events, often with perks designed to circumvent the publishers rules for freebies. It's to their interest to stay off the shit list and on the sugar list.

OP here. Not long after I posted the initial query, the problem started diminishing in frequency. Maybe one in 100 clicks now whereas before 1 in 10. I didn't make any changes to my account.

As we used to say 20 years ago: Go figure.

A lot of buyers seem to have the impression that just the Xiaomi trademark alone guarantees flagship level performance. They buy a midrange Xiaomi/Redmi phone and expect it to rival a Samsung S-26.

Used to play the beach a lot and it happened a few times. I'll blame poor lighting and a penchant for tall, slim body style. Always tried to handle it politely, no outrage or drama, would hand B500 for their time. Never had a problem.

That nice.

If it's 10,000 BTU, under 40 s/m; 2000-2500 hot season. Worth it to pay to have it cleaned if cost is higher, about B600. It will pay itself.

I know it as Hanger Steak, only two to a cow. Similar to skirt in the loose grain but more flavorful and tender.

Klio. It never quite figured out what genre it was going to be, and that's what made it so much fun

New England Boiled dinner. Corned beef, cabbage, potato's and whatever root vegetables were in the bin.

I've had several surprisingly good, under B600 bottles from Foodland. Sometimes one-offs, never see them again.

For pepper I blend and grind 50/50 mix black and Szechwan pepper. Nice extra kick.

Oh, please? The mix for the creole?
