    Going outside is like standing next to a pizza oven ... and what's with that strong hot breeze? Seems to add insult to injury.

    Hang on! If the Sun is only 39C ... why haven't we sent a manned mission there yet?

    ... except for the Irish Space Agency. They went at night time. Cooler.

    Bangkok experienced one of its hottest days yesterday when the Sun was at its most direct point over the capital.
    The maximum temperature measured at Don Muang meteorological station hit 39.4C, the highest recorded on April 27 in 30 years.
    It has been speculated that April 27 will be Bangkok's hottest day each year because of the Sun's position. However, the Meteorological Department explained that the city's temperature also depends on the cloud, wind, and rain conditions.
    The highest temperature recorded on April 27 was in 1983 when the mercury reached 39.9C.
    Temperatures in other provinces, especially in the North and lower North, continued to rise above 40C.
    The department yesterday warned of thunderstorms with gusts and hail in the North, Northeast, Central Plains and East. People should beware of severe weather this weekend.
    Meanwhile, authorities rushed to inspect a rice field in Lop Buri's Muang district after smoke billowed out from underground.
    Department of Mineral Resources officials dug 20-50cm deep into the field but found no methane. They found some plastic bags buried underground in a dump site. Officials believe a fire above the ground had spread to the rubbish underneath. It was previously feared that methane from accumulated sawdust, weeds, dry leaves and heat might have caused the underground fire.

    Maybe they should officially introduce the Siesta to Thailand. Most Tuk Tuk drivers have a handle on it already.


    EDIT: On second thoughts ... Nah. It would just drag the working day out more. Best to get it all over and done with.

    Lao Khao would be a major contributor for that among some Tuk Tuk drivers . .

    I think patriotism and nationalism should be avoided as much as religion and prayer.
