Mercedes Balacano, long time integral part of the main stay, core group of Reillys here and there, leaving us for Icedland…no, Iceland next month…’something about a job in some town outside of Rejkavik, with a free plane ticket…leaves us in March, with a last bash/shuttle at Reilly’s-Guate…as i said to her, she’s the Mercedes of women…I confess to having spent a long Memorial Day weekend in Rejkavik….no places/reservations around San Francisco, so why not..8 years ago, +/-…it never did quite dark and all i remember is this club Exotic, where Eastern European babes were working the poles..and the Czechs and me.
a long conversation with Alex Long of Fusion, who’s mini-mall of Nido Antigua got popped last week or so..the perps bypassed Fusion’s alarm system and helped themselves to some specific items, mostly electronics…TOSA, inside, got plundered mildly and no, the thieves didn’t take any of the Tibetan ‘singing bowls.’ So, now we’re up to eleven burglaries this month in Antigua? on the other hand, the PNC did have two minor victories: they busted a local band of extortionists, who called themselves the ‘Piwis Locos’….did Pee Wee Herman start something or what? oh…a truck load of drunken CONRED employees bumped into a few cars over the weekend and totalled the pickup….’must’ve been an interesting Monday morning office meeting.
some of our annual ‘snow birds’ are leaving…Hogan, next week, followed by a slow exodus thru May….the laughter level at the park and at the Lush Hour at Ocelot will be diminished, sadly…
one for HBT…. http://www.examiner.com/article/escape-from-semuc-champey?cid=db_articles
I haven’t been to La Salas’ Monday Night Salsa fests but if Mikhail’s Navy at Lava is any clue, salsa is BIG….20+ folks troop in, every Monday night to shake their…whatever it is they shake..I’m just luck enough to sit in my chair, must less get up and shake something..
what else? the 2nd Annual HBT Fishing Derby is probably on for this week…’might be short a passenger….might be looking for a master baiter, so if you’re…uh, ‘up’ for this, call Parlama and check in or else with HBT… and yes, I missed Antigua’s den mother extraordinaire, Carla B and her Monday Night Pub Crawl…hey, it was a toss up between going to Mass or A.A…or hitting the Sunshine Grill for a piece of pizza to take home. Answer? C…
and, the night that I found Jesus…..on the bar at the old Reilly’s..with Don Marco..how apropos, no?
