BOOM! Lightning strikes...

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

BOOM! Lightning strikes...

Direct hit to the lightning rod on the building next door - nice! The cat is a little wide-eyed now.

Why is it that some rods get hit more often than others - better earth?

1. Height. Highest point gets hit.

2. Material. Better conductors get hit more often if there is a choice.

3. Other factors such as wind and rain/humidity play a part too.

Have to keep the CIA guessing, Snowden needs whatever help he can find.

And yes, I did take those photos of Hefner's GF's boobs, but it was in the interests of rational insecurity
