That's a really big snake!
Hello boys and girls and others, it's a perky 28 Canadian degrees across East Nong Bon in eastern Bangkok.
And it's going to rain all get-out this afternoon, the last Monday of August, 2022.
SONGS OF PRAISE
The celebration continues of Birthday Number 90 of the Queen Mother, formerly Queen Sirikit.

Thailand's ruling junta has finally issued a strong warnimg against internet users who are streaming, and even charging to see the American movie '13 Lives'.
The film is based on the 2018 rescue in Chiang Rai province of the Wild Boars soccer team and their coach.
Streaming the film is a direct violation of the Thai copyright law, said Jittima Srithaporn, the director-general of Thailand's Department of Intellectual Property aka DIP.
Civil and criminal charges will apply.
'13 Lives' is the third major movie about the rescue.

 White House effort to stave off fall Covid surge with new boosters faces uphill battle.

Also on Sunday
Thailand's junta-controlled Department of Disease Conrol confirmed the country's seventh (7th) case of monkeypox.
The victim is 37-year-old Bangkok resident, who lives alone - but told health investigators that there was that one time that she visited "an entertainment venue populat among foreign tourists".
After that, nothing happened for three weeks and then the blisters broke out suddenly - on her hands, arms, face and private parts.
The victim and three close relatives are in an isolated hospital ward.

PRINCESS DIANA DEATH
So, courtesy of Limey TV and the creepy-crawlie tabloids, the entire world knows that Princess Diana didn't die in a car smash-up in a tunnel. Nah, she was murdered.
What will happen now is anyone's guess.

The camera angle is a little skewed, but that python found in a tree in Din Daeng, northern Bangkok, turned out to be more than three (3) metres long. About 10 feet in Normalspeak.
There is video, of course.

The U.S.A. media (i.e. Washington Post) bologna about nuclear secrets and national defence information at Mar-a-Lago from "'people familiar with the investigation" and "experts in classified information" and "former senior intelligence officials" and "a person familiar with the investigation" were all ("all") B.S.
 Tough position for the Washington Post, which must confess all its Trump-Mar-a-Lago horsehockey was nonsense from the Federal Bureau of Instigation =OR= the Washington Post must try to continue the flapdoodle it has been selling for two weeks.
They are trying to back out, but it's danged difficult.
