olympos Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Poor guys, god bless! Reminds me Bangkok last year in October-November. You know i started already shopping long-lasting food and other items such as candles and toilet paper. End of last year we had the flood 3 weeks inside Bangkok. And past-flood another 4 weeks no bread, no eggs, no fruits and no fresh water and no Coca Cola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year we have Yinglak - she already has promised no flooding in Thaland this year, I hope it's not just another politicians promise that they never keep... I live in Pak Kret, in our house we had 22 peoples living as their hoses were flooded, but on this side of the river we were not flooded... I have some friends in Manila and I am actually a bit worried, because I didn't hear from any of them... I am almost sure one went to the province she came from, but the other being an orfan, really don't have a lot of options... . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in California and a day without an earthquake is almost like a summer without sunshine. Anyway, we're sitting there and the place starts shaking. I ask Ked, "Hey, did you feel that?" and she says, "Yeah, what was it?" I tell her it was an earthquake and she takes a dive under the table. Well first off, doorways are your best protection in an earthquake but it was at least a minute since the earthquake. I couldn't stop laughing. But, if you're Thai, you never get earthquakes. If you grow up in California, they're a weekly or monthly thing. From her perspective, she's thinking the movie 2012. She thinks we're sliding into the Pacific. For me, I've lived through two of the biggest quakes in US history. Unless the refrigerator is bouncing, it's not even worth getting up for.

olympos Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 She thinks we're sliding into the Pacific. Bill, for you sliding into the pacific would'nt be a problem at all because especially your body has a positive buoyancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
