Charlie Chaplin movie banned in Thailand :: !!! Probably Fake News !!!

At Thailand’s Request, YouTube Blocks Video Clip of Charlie Chaplin’s ‘The Great Dictator’ · Global Voices Even though the headline reads "... blocks video clip ..."  The video is still readily available this morning, including a short clip with Thai subtitles.     Opinion: The request to block the video probably will increase viewership.  The video will unlikely cause Thai people to revolt.  Most are not that interested in politics, rather more so in financial survival.

This could be Sakon FC's best season

Yesterday's 3-0 win with Mahasarakham propelled Sakon FC to 5th place of 12 teams according to official statistics.  If you look at the point standings , three teams are tied for third place with 28 points. The goal difference is what drops Sakon FC down to 5th place.  The team needs some high scoring wins. They are on the road for the next two games. At Chaiyaphum Sunday, 2 July, then Loei City, Sunday,  9 July.  The Chaiyaphum game is 'troubled waters,' they are number 2 in the league.  after that things look a bit more promising for Sakon FC. Loei City is winnable.    The final two games are home games: Buriram B on 16 July, Roi Et on 19 July.  Those last two games of the season could be / should be high scoring games.

And so it begins

Tropical thunderstorm began around 2 am. Thunder and lightening, my gutters were running over.  Flooding was inevitable.  One can only hope there's enough time for water to run off before the next storm. The highway is fairly new, drainage was not part of the plan  I anticipated worse this year just last month              Weather alert: The worst is yet to come
