If it is Saturday in Sakon Nakhon, Thailand it Must Be...

Saturday in Sakon Nakhon means different things to different people. To me a big part of Saturday is lunch, Isaan style.
sticky rice, somtam (papaya salad, Lao style), gai yaang (BBQ chicken) and of course beer Chang (Remember only you can Chang your life).
Sitting at the park side restaurant talking to acquaintances and watching the world go by.
For others they like to start their Saturday with a bit of a bicycle ride around town and good on em, they are a happy and healthy bunch as well.

3G signals in Bangkok, both TRUE and CAT were loud and clear. Bandwidth seemed a bit jammed. We departed the terminal at 1100h and I twitcast it and less than an hour later here it is

15 seconds at the Thai So Museum Sakon Nakhon Thailand






I started using the Viddy Application for Android Beta That I was sent. Yes I guess it is a bit of a rip-off of Instagram, but the is something I like about it. And 15 seconds of something you don't like watching is a lot less painful than 15 minutes. The Thai So Museum is located in Kusuman in Sakon Nakhon. I will be posting the story about the exhibit later
Any how in less time than it took you to read the post here you go.
Let me know what you think.
thanks

buddhism is big business in thailand


And business is good


Seems like a whole lotta times is spent chasing the baht than thinking about the buddha at many thai temples. Some nice rides for managerial monks.
More of my adventures at "high ranking" wats coming soon

Isaan Live Podcast Episode 30-1 (video test)

This is a test to see if itunes picks up the mp4 feed. Also the That Phanom festival will be taking place over Magha Puja. It is the biggest event in Isaan Buddhist or otherwise and if you can visit it I suggest you do.



AS this is a video file it may take some time to save

Isaan Live Podcast Episode 30

The 1st of the New Year, about Isaan Live Broadcasts and more

05.01.Isaan Live Trials and Tibulations

last night's "Isaan Live at 5", our 2d attempt was not as smooth as the first. After more than 30 minutes I found out I was broadcasting audio ony. The 2 segment embedded worked and a 3d went audio only. I am sure we will never figure out the exact cause, although I think it might have been a speed issue with AIS the provider on this end. What I plan too do for now is to broadcast 10 minute segments with about 2 minute breaks to check for comments on twitter, then back live. I hope this works. Please bear with us as TIT and there are bugs everywhere
