Beating the Rain

Thursday, October 15, 2009 By kevmille

It is just 5 PM but I could tell from the dark clouds that it would rain within 20 minutes.  My appointment was at 5:30 PM but I decided to see if I could race to my destination and remain dry. I raced down Le Van Sy only to face gridlock after gridlock of slow moving motorobikes.  Can't they understand that it was able to rain cats and dogs?  "Please get out of my way!"

Update: Electricty problems with EVN

Saturday, October 10, 2009 By kevmille

Well, it has been 16 days since I complained to EVN about the 895 kWh bill for last month.  Two days ago they sent about 3 workers to look at my power meter.  They spent about one hour and a half to see if there was a problem. Before they started the tests, they tried to tell me that since I was not home, the EVN guy who reads the power meters could not write down the … [Read more...] about Update: Electricty problems with EVN
