A sure bet
Sakon FC 3 - Phanom FC 2
I desperately wanted to see this game. I considered it a sure bet to win
Common sense told me now is not the time to ride in an overcrowded pick-up truck while I am experiencing severe shoulder and neck pains.
Instead I received regular telephone updates while resting at home.
Joey had wanted to wear his favorite yellow football jersey.
But he considered the present mood of the country and packed shirts of various colors:
Red, yellow, pink, green, blue.
Once he realized the team was wearing yellow, he knew it was safe.

SakonNakhon Computer Service just got better
For computer parts, service and information I've been visiting the friendly folks at digicomp4u.
I've been experiencing their superb services for over five years.
Have no reason to consider going elsewhere
A big plus for me is that the store owners speak English.
Stopped by the store on Friday to purchase some CD envelopes and asked about the availability of wireless cameras. They gave me the information and promised to get more.
I visited http://digicomp4u.com/ today and found additional camera information posted for me on their web board.
They are located less than a block south of the city bus station

They now have their own website.

Football players must be qualified for extra duty...
Typical Thailand Advance Notice
Special Buses leaving for Bangkok Seen On local Cable News
Don't just stand there
This one was way overdue
We are having a special football session, can you come and take some photographs?
When?
Oh, we already started!
Football players must be qualified for extra duty as cattle herders
Think it somewhat exposes the country's dilemma. For decent wages you have to move to the big city.
Don't just stand there
It's not science fiction anymore
Ain't big enough for two of each species
'Noah's Ark' found, evangelical group claims'
This one was way overdue

No political gathering tonight
I'd heard there had been a number of political gatherings here in Sakon Nakhon over the past ten days.
Estimates were one and two thousand people.
So I took a look at the provincial headquarters complex myself this evening.
No political gathering tonight. Instead the place was a bustling market, more like a flea market.
The only police action I saw was two police officers guiding a driver from his parking space on the sidewalk.
Based on hotel occupancy, SakonNakhon tourism is down 20%. ryt9.
Not as bad as Thailand's overall 40% drop in tourism.
SakonNakhon has more domestic and Asian tourism than other foreign tourism.
