If this works as shown on the promo video, it might be a good answer.....

I had one dog constantly coming after me while riding my bike, going right for my foot/ankles....I got a spray bottle that could shoot about 9ft....I then made a concentration of Apple Cider Vinegar with some light salt water.....After the first attempt & me spraying it's eyes it decided to avoid me....This dog basically attacks anything when he escapes his fenced yard..... The locals carry a 2.5-3ft sturdy bamboo stick which seems effective..... When initially finding places to walk my dog, I did too; tucked into my belt running up through the small of my back like an arrow in a quiver....I didn't carry a baton as that could possibly be construed as a weapon....

"The child's subsequent evaluation and treatment at a psychiatric hospital in San Antonio underscored the critical intersection between mental health and juvenile delinquency. His young age and troubled state of mind raise important questions about the underlying factors contributing to his actions and the urgent need for comprehensive support and intervention. While the legal system may be limited in its ability to hold the child accountable for Brandon Rasberry's death, the broader implications of this tragic event extend far beyond the confines of a courtroom. It serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities surrounding juvenile crime, mental health, and the profound impact of early intervention and support in addressing underlying issues." <>As the community grapples with the aftermath of this devastating loss, there is a pressing need for compassion, understanding, and a concerted effort to address the root causes of such senseless acts of violence. Only through a holistic approach that prioritizes mental health support, early intervention, and community engagement can we hope to prevent similar tragedies in the future.<> Tragic - This kid was off the radar until this happened - age of 7...... The "holistic" approach suggested is a nothing burger..... Not being able to hold a child under 10 responsible should be revisited.....A loophole easily exploited by youth gangs..... Note, this was an RV park, not a trailer park....

I've had trouble getting it to turn out well with the hot weather(too dense/poor rise)... I'm usually pretty successful, but not during this hot weather..... The Ideal temperature for rising is about 75f.....

The Hideaway for bagels & all the fixin's + their craft cheeses.... They have a sister store in town, but I don't know the name or if they stock the same products.... True sourdough, especially a crusty bread that is acceptable is difficult..... My wife has started making flour tortillas recently & it's been a nice addition...... Rim Ping & Makro have flour tortillas.... We don't live close enough in to use Lotus or Tops....

I tip my barber, car wash guys, & masseuse gal.....All of which I've gone to for years..... If we go to an "upscale" restaurant, I'll usually tip..... If we go to a local small eatery I'll leave it up to my wife - who usually does not.....She does surprise me & tip on occasion.... She's got her own system.... If we seek a service & they exceed expectations I will tip depending on the situation.....

I'm not sure how much of a benchmark this can be.... 4 years ago we moved about 10k from our previous 4b/3b house to our own 3b/3b house....We moved a full household of teak furniture, all appliances, electronics, plus many large potted outside plants & trees.... It was a crew of 4 + a large truck, a local referral.....The cost was 5k฿ & everything was moved with care with no mishaps or loss.... I at first tried a THE local large scale removal company (__ __ removal) & they weren't interested - they seemed to only want the big payday of international or long haul move.... If you can, Thai to Thai contacts will help find what you need..... It sounds as if a regular passenger sized van or songteau would be big enough for your stuff ...

My daughter carries a 3" facial scar from the age of 4 when she tried to pet a family Thai Ridgeback & it bit her straight onto her face..... Fortunately, the scars follow her lip lines & are now almost not noticeable....I don't trust them.....They snap a unexpected times....Always wired.... They've had many over the years & all turned mean.... I much prefer the temperament of the Thai Bangkaew.....

Thaiger doesn't exactly set a high standard....Each change they've made over the past 2 years has been a steady downgrade....The demographics of each site seem to oppose each other..... This has fail marked all over imo....

If they are brought into societal training young....

I could probably knit a sweater for this guy from what my Bangkaew has shed recently..... I saw and petted a Siberian Husky a guy was walking today.... From the look & feel of his fur it's possible it has never seen a comb or brush ... A gorgeous dog....

So, what do you get from the DIY store?......

Yeah but those walk in windows really slow down the drive throughs....Fair is fair as scooters can't drive through.... Sometimes agencies will funnel 4-5 or more people to the walk in line....I got stuck behind a pushy agent & 6 or 7 people she guided to the window then jambed their paperwork through one by one..... A couple of them had something incomplete & then corrected and resubmitted as I tried to remain calm.....

Back before moving here they supposedly allowed cars to be imported....I loved my Lexus SC400 & briefly pondered bringing it over....At that time the road conditions + lack of parts and qualified techs dowsed that thought..... And that's a fun, solid, well equipped vehicle.... I'm not sure the carbon fiber new generation super cars would have any kind of long life expectancy here....

I did manage to have a refreshing double rum & coke after walking the dog a couple of miles in the heat of the day..... Imbibing before that walk didn't seem like a good plan....

The beer I had for breakfast....

Nada planned for tonight - probably tomorrow..... That could change with a glance at the liquor cabinet, but it's too f**kn' hot for it to be inviting....

We did ours through the satellite location at the mall....They were trundling them through there.... It's a briskly busy place....

I found the same years ago before I found, & settled in Thailand..... If you want to see a few foreigners (with an "oh-sh*t how did this happen") look, go to the next Catholic church christening ceremony where they literally crank christenings out by the 100's.....

Having had many Filipino visitors in TH; the most concise statement one made regarding this was..... The Philippines could be like Thailand in 20 years with foresight, planning, & the will to complete what they start....She believed that the people just didn't have drive to complete projects.... The PI is full of projects left only partially completed and abandoned....

I've had issues, with them on 2 different vehicles (2 tries).... When the front axles dropped out of my wife's Civic after CV joint servicing in under 500 kilometers I went with the receipt to the desk & was told it was over 60 days & not covered.... Luckily she was driving slowly on a straight road when the axles popped..... I have much stronger feelings but won't express them on a public forum... They're quick on upsells with dab a lube trays, etc. They remind me of the Goodyear/Firestone shops in the US.....

Bow & arrow?

Good move - too many gullible kids & predators.... I just had to curtail hours for our mid teenager......She was getting pulled into late PM to overnight activities/groups being the norm.....

They are considered to be more photogenic in front of the camera..... More symmetrical..... But yeah, a lot, if not most - smallish....

Stalking was one main reason....
