Zepol vs Windex

Ξ December 8th, 2005 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Humor, Maria Luisa, Whatever |

I think the movie was My Big Fat Greek Wedding… not sure. The bride’s father kept handy a bottle of Windex that he used for just about anything from pimples to plumbing repairs. I suppose he also used it for windows. At various times, he sprayed just about everyone… or threatened to. Duct tape has the same reputation for many people.

Honeymoon… Final chapter

Ξ December 4th, 2005 | → 1 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Food, Humor, Maria Luisa, Travel, Whatever |

OK… So I am a bit late writing about the last part of the ‘moon. Sue me.

After the few days we spent in DF and Taxco, it was time to again board Mexicana… also known as Mexi-arrogante… for the short flight to Cancun. As you might glean from my comment, Mexicana is not my favorite airline and in fact are probably toward the bottom… not bad considering this was the first time I have flown the airline. They work quick to impress!

Dog Eats Nica

Ξ December 1st, 2005 | → 1 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Ewwwwww!, Humor, Whatever |

Things are heating up between Costa Rica and Nicaragua over the incident the other night whereby two Rottweiler guard dogs were losed against a Nicaraguan who was alledgedly on private property with mal intent. There may be some basis in this as it was

  1. The middle of the night
  2. Everything was closed and locked for the night
  3. The gentleman in question was well-known to our elite fuerza publica as a bad person not respectful of the law.

Taxco! Oh, and remind me to never get married again

Ξ November 23rd, 2005 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Whatever |

Sheesh… It appears I simply cannot take any time away from my business. Since returning from the honeymoon, it has been 14 hour days and I never get a chance to write in my blog. I did have time though to add some of the photos from our trip to Taxco, Mexico and you can see them in the gallery here or just browse the gallery here. There are also a couple of Cancun photos… more coming.

Pointy Shoes – Rant Alert

Ξ November 2nd, 2005 | → 5 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Humor, Rants, Whatever |

Costa Rica lags the US in women’s fashion.

Sometimes, lag is not the right word. Sometimes Costa Rica simply ignores women’s fashion in the USA. Often, this is a really good thing as the ladies of North America seem to queue up like lemmings to blindly follow whoever comes out with whatever is the dumbest, most offensive, least attractive item that a woman could possible wear. Some items I am sure, were designed to simply humiliate women because there is simply no other reason for their existence.

Sadly, the absolutely fantastic ladies of this country have lost all use of their mental facilities and are now buying (and worse… wearing) those incredible and stunningly ugly pointy toed shoes. Good Lord… am I the only one who sees this?

Honeymoon… Day 2? 3? Mexico City and Taxco

Ξ October 14th, 2005 | → 3 Comments | ∇ Costa Rica, Food, Humor, Travel, Whatever |

OK… So I screwed up. I am not sure why I thought we could properly visit a city of maybe 24 million people in four hours… but I did.

Mexico City is special. I have always wanted to visit, but was scared away by the numerous traveler’s warnings.

Honeymoon Day 1

For some reason, I thought it would be a cool idea to leave really early the day after the wedding. You know… get to Mexico City early enough to actually DO something. Well it seemed like a good idea at the time…

Although I have met a ton of other blogger type persons over the years, nearly all have been by email… until this past week.
