This comes as no surprise. Those in power closed their eyes, held their breath, then threw the dice. Guess what? Snake eyes, baby!

Even better on an Android. ????

And people pay good money to sit in a hotel room watching the rain, ordering in 7/11 premiere offerings.

Phone app, laptop or pc, ALL are better than a visit to a brick & mortar shop.

This isn't the first time in recent days for this to happen. People are getting desperate, backs against the wall with nothing to lose.

Better yet, are they doing ANYTHING?

I've adopted a woman, her DNA daughter and her adopted daughter. 10k baht/month will stave off hunger and homelessness. Thailand is one of the wealthiest nations on the planet. I guess how they got that way is shameless greed and selfishness.

And exactly what made this possible? Oh yeah - VACCINATIONS!

Recently the Philippines shut their doors to travelers coming from Thailand. https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/philippines-to-bar-travel-from-malaysia-thailand-to-curb-delta-covid-19s-spread

It's not the bugs you should be concerned about, it's the heavy metals that microwaving can't remove. I've been using tap water for coffee, tea, and general cooking for years, no ill effects so far. I do draw the line at drinking water. Having a water dispensing machine in the condo complex makes it too easy to keep a healthy supply of drinking water on hand.

My guilty pleasures were Florida's Natural grapefruit juice and Casa Freitas refried beans. I believe, due to disruption in the supply chain, these items have been unavailable for about a month from the places normally carrying them (namely Villa Market). Anyone else notice their favorite items missing from the shelves?
