the moon, the wispy clouds, Jupiter…no sign of Uranus and probably a good thing. A public backlash in the Park…sign up tables, posters and folks upset about the possible commercial uses of the Palacio de Capitanes Generales…good..it’s too nice a building for adding commercial spaces to the lower level…petitions abound..go sign one..I would and i may yet do so..bring my DPI card, as a residente permanente pensionado…por que no?
what a perfect evening…Piano Mike setting up early for a 9er at Ocelot..Moriah has a great gig teaching english over the hill..pays good $$..go Moriah!…support Dad in his old age…’ran into the other party of the botched/screwed up Caffe Bourbon mess today…nope, no mention and I didn’t ask…he was talking with the superb Victoria C…back from Norway..’class act/lady.
the place on 1st calle poniente. #9A, across from La Merced? I promised not to mention him..packed to the rafters..folks on the street waiting for a table…typical..comparing notes with Piano Mike re the current economics of the bar/restaurant scene here..we’re both of the same mind that come Jan the first there’s gonna be a few missing faces/joints/operations..even Crash Harriss of La Pena del Sol has cut back staff/hours and he reports that he’s getting 2-3 people a day looking for work..it’s the economy,stupid…where have we heard that before? wanna buy some greek drachma or italian lira? hey, how about those euros? 2012 might not be what the Maya predicted but it sure as hell looks like some kinda meltdowns, here and there.
as mentioned on Face Hole, I’m looking for weird/strange Antigua factoids..gathering material…got sum? dim sum? credit given where credit is due…doo doo..wop wop…passed a local restauranteur and his latest popsie about 5:30, headed into the o so dead El Sereno(4th ave norte)…if one didn’t want to be seen in public, this is as good as it gets…Ricardo’s Tabacos y Vinos having a great night…new Aussie guy, first day on the job…the marvelous Marvel on hand(i wish)…tomorrow? 11/11/11…wtf does that mean? the asteroid passed us, the world is slowly being trashed and….fill in the dots..I give up..
