Just a quickie -- do the players then have to actually be in the playoffs? .

Lucky for them they don't have any other team competing for attention, and get all 7 million. Elway never liked Tebow -- kind of like you, Vic. But he kind of likes winning and the big problem for Elway is that Tebow is a winner AND puts enormous numbers of bums on seats. What McDaniel and Fox and Quinn and Orton (and Elway) did was 1-5 and chase away fans. What Tebow did was turn that into 8-7 and bring enormous cash into the Broncos' franchise. You absoutely have to hate a quarterback that does that -- turns a three-win season into 8 or 9 wins, right? Right? I'd bet a substa

Only missing the "j" in edjucation. .

Yes. And No. There are a lot of rice cookers out there today, they really have moved up several generations. A lot of them have microchips and can do all kinds of fancy stuff like, (as mentioned) cook red rice and cook joke. All of this *is* automatic, one button push just like the basic one you describe. Making it a "slow cooker" that does not boil is a piece of cake, these days. Yes, on your basic rice cooker, you can turn it on, and then immediately switch it to "warm" or some similar setting. And to be picayune, the rice would (eventually) cook but it wouldn't steam, which is

It's not really myth (but not entirely true for sure), and also it's not Pattaya, but rather it's Bangkok. The rule of thumb for an awfully long time was that the short time price was the biggest bill in circulation. So in the past 40 years that would start at 100 baht. Then the 500-baht bill came in around the mid-1970s and the 1,000-baht note in the 1990s (going from memory). Like I say, not really myth, but not entirely factual of course. .

You're very welcome for the information on exactly where to find new, slow cookers for sale in Thailand, including store department and shelf. You needn't mention it. .

Cook books and instruction pamphlets give you food poisoning? Wow!! I'm glad I don't read them. .

Well, thank goodness for the Internet. You can always get the answer you want, for sure. .

Update. Indianapolis whipped the Texans, say good-bye to Houston, talk about going the wrong way in December! I've really liked SFO this year, small market team and all, coming off years of terribleness, very under the radar most of the season. It's a long way to Lucas Oil Stadium but there are several ways to get there, and yours is not fantasy. Reminder: All games this weekend are on SUNDAY, not Monday. (Pattaya time.) Onliest exception is "Sunday Night Football" on Monday morning as usual. .

Kamagra is "generic" Viagra. .

Same name, same basic script - different product. Try one small bottle, I'm sure you'll hate it ... .or acquire a taste for somethinf entirely different. .

UK plans to ban "excessive" credit card surcharges
joekicker replied to bigdelta's topic in Airline Discussion
I'm pretty sure the minister is extremely concerned at this allegation of excessive fees on Britons travelling abroad and will order an urgent study into such possible abuse. This guy is really serious about stemming such unwarranted attacks on consumers by Big Credit, don't you know that already? He's not like those other ministers from that other unspeakable party. But on the OP: What is this "Christmas gift" then" Talk about a political windbag. Not a single fact or charge or saving, not a word about what is too much or too little, no indication of what is "just right". Adapted -
You may or may not know something about cooking. But no one is arguing about cooking except you. And to the point here is what is certain: you don't know a lot about reading. Not a person, not a post, not a SENTENCE in this thread says that a rice cooker "will ... do" what a crock pot does. In fact.... I believe you are the first person who even suggested the idea. "Look" - as the man says. If you don't have a slot screwdriver, you might be able to loosen that screw with a table knife. If your DVD player won't play the disk you picked up in America, you may be able to watch it on your

You have an oven? And you're worried about whether you can buy a crock pot? Talk about starting at the high end and working down. So you don't know what happens, you have no way to test it, but anyone who does it must be... no ,strike that, anyone who suggests it *is* an idiot. Not the best example of an open mind, I'd say. FWIW, I idiotically agree with you that *IF* you can get a crock pot, it would be nice for the dish you made up out of thin air for the OP. And if you can *not* get a crock pot, or if you don't want to shell out for one, or if you're low on storage space, t

Obviously.... well, apparently not obviously, but ACTUALLY everything that will be done with the girl will be done at immigration and not any other place. "All they can do" is fix up the problem so there isn't a problem any more. Lawyers can't do that. Lawyers can advise you on how to approach the people who can and will do it. So can immigration officers advise, only for free. But the only possible unique sole solitary group of people who can (and will, later if not sooner) actually really physically *_will do_* something are the officers of immigration. Going to a lawyer for an otherwise leg

Five days later.... and no one has walked into a bank and asked, "Do you have rolls of 10 baht coins?" .

Have you ever put a 2kg joint of meat with stock & wine in a rice cooker for 8 hours? .

Why would you expect them to be competent at visas? Tha's what parents are for, surely? If she is over her visa she WILL be charged, there is no "can" about it. She's here on a visa, she overstayed. What did you think? A poor little helpless child, they couldn't possibly charge her? And you blame the school for hopelessness and incompetence? Did it never occur to you that there are real experts in this in Pattaya? For free? At the immigration office? Answer to your question: She needs a visa to stay in Thailand. Most probable is a non-immigrant to attend her school this y

heh. Yeah, I was thinking of a 24-hour day, you betcha. .

Isn't that amazing? And of course they are suing Apple, which will settle for bazillions because it's cheaper to give the Yurps bazillions instead of fight them for mega-bazillions, like Microsoft and others. I don't know how anyone can support that organization. .
-
Yep, that's why I told him there are lots of them for sale here, too. Pretty well all the big department stores have them -- western, Japanese and Thai. It's not Wal-Mart for selection, AND you usually will find them interspersed with the rice cookers in that department. But it is un-difficult to find them. .

Sure you can. Most rice cookers stay on all day to keep the rice warm, that's the point of them. .
