I had an invitation to cover the launch/inauguration of the new and improved Antigua City Bus Tour yesterday…considering all the preparations and the people involved I was expecting a big whoop te do…but..no, not even close.

what a perfect rainy/thunderous kinda day…lunge around in the old brocade smoking jacket and swill rum…and a big thanks again to Michael Rayment and Reid Choate for suggesting that wondrous cure-all know as Gabatina…Reid says he’ll be back in December: maybe another road trip to Gualan and the mired Land Rover? the Perfessor is reportedly back next month, and that’ll be time enough to destroy some more brain cells and concoct any silly Beige Bomb fueled and fired expedition to the Outer Limits of Guatemala.
a big shout-out con prayers to Barb the K, recovering from some serious surgery up Chicago way and now looking at some post-op radiation ‘treatments’…i don’t see ’em as treatment…that sounds good…ack..sorry, Barb, get well and come back. Your brother needs you to keep an eye on him.
I get depressed when I walk into the Ocelot patio these days: Ixcot is a mausoleum, what was Pangea is still padlocked, the little ex-Lounge is now a dead Budweiser outlet…thank the stars for ever present and semi-full Lava upstairs.
the ‘leather dudes were in town this morning….some even had babes with them…big snarling bikes, walking around holding their helmets and nothing else…no ice cream, no cappuchinos…guys…we need your money!
