another day of laughs, absurdities and ‘can you believe that?’…in a nutshell, that sums up life in Antigua, where the weird is commonplace, the insane is a daily event and….well, isn’t that why we live here? The National Enquirer couldn’t top a single day in this jacuzzi of chisme, history and/or past/present scoundrels.

La Noche du Chefs approaching this Saturday night..will I go? there’s a couple of tickets reserved…for whom? and a new vendor signed up…Aylin/Enlaces! and I can’t believe that i spaced a print run of 25 copies this week..it’s cool, they’re paid for but…is my memory that bad? yeah, it looks that way…Mateo of Cashbar on the streets early, in a hurry..going somewhere..Carla B, Jerome/wife at Ocelot for the happy hour, Shaun relating a ‘grizzly story from the US…and you think that people are dumb here?…nope..the You Ess of A has a monopoly on ‘stupid’..probably the water, the McD’s and the TV programs..
