Dual Pricing in Thailand applies to all foreigners

There are exceptions.  When I paid for a dozen Thai friends I was also given the Thai price at the Mukdahan tower

200728 War of the FACEBOOK Fact Checkers

My original post on facebook was entitled "SNAKE OIL or cure."
Snake oil refers to a substance with no real medicinal value sold as a remedy for all diseases. 
With that title I was questioning the validity of the linked article:

COVID-19 No Vaccine Needed, There Is Already A Cure - NewsBlaze News

After receiving the 'False Information Found in Your Post" notice, I deleted the post.

Facebook fact checkers base their decision on "global health care experts."

I subsequently checked the publisher reliability

The doctor is continuing to make the news with his declared experiences

COVID patients defend Dr. Bartlett's 'silver bullet' medicine regimen | newswest9.com  published July 9

Such experiences can not be determined as fact based on less than a dozen cases, but should also not be completely ignored

COVID-19 patient used 'silver bullet' treatment and was still admitted to the hospital | newswest9.com

It's the season when bugs want to come in out of the rain

MY OBSERVATION:   Bug spray only stuns the spider temporarily. 
                                            If you use bug spray indoors, VENTILATE !



Saw this huge spider at the opposite of the room.  I quickly grabbed for the bug spray and chased it. 

The spider seemed to remember how it came into the room, it headed towards the space below the door. 
It was actually partially under the door when I sprayed it again and it re-entered the room.  

That's when I grabbed my camera

 

I'm squeamish about such critters, finally mustered enough courage and crushed it.

It's the second large spider since yesterday (one a day)

ASO WORTH OF NOTE:  Many spiders can stay underwater for extended times, flushing a live spider does not necessarily eliminate them
