Sakon Nakhon's fishy sighting

	It could be one like that one What makes me suspicious: Hundreds of people gather as a fish performs near them. Let's say it's a fish. Probably a recent import.
	The fact that the animal is 'not shy around humans' adds to my suspicions Claims that it is a native to the lake seem unlikely: there'd be more than one. You know, relatives, mother-in-law.

In March of last year they called it a Naga sighting (first video)
This March it's a "Weird Fish" (Second video-recommend turn down volume).

I wasn't convinced last year, I'm not convinced this year.
Think this can be filed along with this January UFO sighting in Sakon Nakhon.

There's an interesting story about the land these houses are sitting on.

Residents complain: Too much Dust

Filling the land once occupied by a lake continues.
Recent heavy winds had created some very unpleasant dust storms, along the northern end of ITU (road).
