Real news, its on BKK post as well... When I saw it, was ready to bet this was going to make headline on a TV email.... Anything to up post counts of TV posters...

Smart move though, and they can be put to further use afterward: fill them up with sand and reinforce the dams to prevent further floading...

Once the floods subside I feel sorry for the poor chappy (or rather, the poor chappy's chapped chappy) who decides to empty out the sand and put them to a further and originally intended use...

As a medic with an Australian battalion in Vietnam, my brother carried condoms to issue to his platoon when needing wade through deep swamps. There are some hideous opportunist parasites that will enter the blood stream via the genitals. That is in fact what I thought the news item may have been about.

You have some extreem hatred eating away at you for taksin so much so that you have missed a coup and an election. The man is no longer P.M. What did the guy do to you, spill your beer? You really do have to get over him as it is not healthy yo have this built up hatred and resentment.

Right. He's got a sister to be his puppet PM. Of course people aren't over Thaksin because he ain't over!

Overnight blackouts known to cause mini baby booms, something similar I suppose.

Nothing else to do, might as well have a shower in a raincoat.

Right you are. In 2003 there was a power grid failure in the Northeast US. Nine months later bingo, baby booms.

Amazing ignorance, A power cut in your own home is hardly comparable to being rehoused on a pallet on the main road ( which is also flooded)

It's not exactly like being snowed in at a ski lodge with your honey, is it?

I was also looking for the 'Not the Nation' link....

Condoms can be used to collect water from a clean source when no other vestibule is available or has floated away....

The wellington boots provided by a previous aid effort may be too large for some of the children. Rubbers can be put over little Johnny's feet to keep them dry...

When boiled in water the latex condoms soften, increase in elasticity and can be stretched over ones head. An excellent method for the hi-so's and high-fro's to keep their bouffant hair style dry....

Condoms being of a non-porous nature prove to be an excellent measure in blocking drainage. This investment by the government ensures drainage blockage, further flooding and further aid efforts from which they can squander further income... clever !!!

there was an amazing email about condoms in China on you tube. There was everything quoted and more. I recall; a teat for feeding baby, inflated made a ball game; water wings,shower header, source of lubricant,ice pack, ice lolly mold,gloves.......

Well we know what one of the volunteers has on his mind. Wonder if he is paddling around in his boat, making home visits to pass out the relief items?

Thai newscast I have been watching show those doing a lot of the sandbagging to be younger women. Doubt if they will be real amorous at the end of a day of throwing sandbags.

Science and technology minister Plodprasop Suraswadi admitted the government was fighting a losing battle.

"We can't stop it raining and it's difficult to drain water into the sea. We have done everything we can but it's not enough," he told reporters.

If only we had more boats and their propellers we could have turned the tide and resolved this flooding situation.

Gotta keep your powder dry. And your yabaa.

Ka, Somchai I'm bored lets do it,

as we float past the wat on the roof of our house,

and in the shelter we are sharing with 150 other people,

with only the clothes on their backs and no viagra or deoderant.
