Scattered Heavy RainRoads are always extra slippery during a first rain

Insure battery operated devices are charged I mentioned 'clean your gutters' five days ago. Heavy rains in scattered areas mostly Wednesday afternoon through Thursday.  A slice of life in Baan Nong Waeng. A three minute video that could make you smile More updates of the in flight engine smoke incident Sunday afternoon Please be advised. I am posting this advertisement as noteworthy news 20% off.

สกลนคร Sakon Nakhon

Great voice, but the dance choreography needs some work

Sakon Nakhon

Drink up and get sick and puke

Fame came to South Korean pop artist Psy (Park Jae-Sang) with his 'Gangnam Style.'
Gangnam Style is the most watched Youtube video with over 2 billion hits.
The music was very popular in Thailand and was imitated

Psy is back rapping with Snoop Dogg.  
I'm not as impressed  as I was with 'Gangnam.'  
Maybe it's because of the subject matter: "Drink up and get sick and puke."

The title "Teaser..." is right.

At the end of the video a big headline: 
"coming soon."

I asked: "when?" 
 The reply was: "Maybe not"

I'm not expecting a win, but I'm willing to be surprised

Topped off my wallet this morning. 
Bags are packet, not leaving on a jet plane, 
(but I'm thinking about the jet plane that's grounded in Munich).

We're off to see a ballgame.  

Sakon FC vs Surin FC. 
Surin is #5 in the division, while Sakon FC has sneaked into 8th place.  
I'm not expecting a win, but I'm willing to be surprised.


It's a long ride to this ballgame and I may have to seek out some pain medication before this trip ends.

I'll be eating a schnitzel tonight!!!!

Stock up on beverages beforehand

July 3 is election Day.  Stock up on beverages beforehand.
Bars will be closed, restaurants can not sell alcoholic beverages.
Even though some will serve such beverages in coffee cups or camouflaged containers. We all know that.

"Extended stay visitors" to Thailand should register with their home country embassy.
Many embassies offer e-mail alerts whenever deemed appropriate.
Here's hoping it wont happen, but post election activity (July 3) is very uncertain for Thailand, with  political unrest possible.

Weather ahead:
