this cool gray evening…maybe it’ll rain or at least take some of the canefield smoke outa the air….’came thru G City last Sunday at mid-day and their air pollution was as bad as I’ve ever seen it, nuff to make my eyes smart(sting, not smarter).
‘intestinal fartitude?’….yeah, some kinda bug got me…’mighta been the grape juice from a roadside stand out by Zacapa but everything seems to be under control…upper 5th? La Casbah has a new sign over their new pub…Sangre taking a page from a bunch of other places, now advertising “Salsa Lessons!’…..wow..
Rich the Neel mentioned something or was it I, about another race this month at the Cofino track out by Escuintla…27th or 28th….think ‘Spandex!’…I might be in the mood by then, given that next week or so is Tax Time(yep, got rid of my desires this morning to write fiction)and then, maybe, one last jaunt with the Less than Hardy Boys, before some of ’em go back north for the season.
in the mean time…..http://www.examiner.com/article/guns-rum-and-pigs
speaking of leaving, John Korte, long-time Antigueno, is finally packed and leaving us on Tuesday next…they found their ‘dream home’ in Panama and as with a couple other old-timers here, they’re up to here with Antigua. It’ll be amusing(if you’re not a land lord)to see which businesses still keep their doors open after the close of Semana Santa: checklist…stiff the suppliers, don’t pay the staff and fuggedabout the rent, it’s 4 months overdue anyway..
finally figured out where the new Pit Stop Cafe is gonna be…a couple miles outa town, on the way to the City…the big curve with the paintings/furniture outside? yep…might just work…told one of the players that maybe carhops were the ‘ thing’…..picture this…shorts, bare mid-riff, saucy little cap and a name-tag(no on the roller skates)
y’ know…I think I am feelin’ better….tomorrow will be the proof…80 or 100? why would someone take just a few letters from the hood of Henrik’s spiffy new Range Rover? what would they do with them? an ‘n’ and a ‘g?’….if they’re anything like Jaguar parts, they’re expensive as hell(BTDT)..CU you around town, tomorrow, +/-
