as with my application for a job as a ‘Brazilian Bikini Waxer’ I was declined…little, if any references, they said. And yes, the town is chock-a-block full of Christians, in matching t-shirts, coming to save the pagan babies. As usual, there’s a few heavily obese and at least one member of an ethnic group, proving that Christ loves everyone.
So…the new 800 lb gorilla in town? San Martin Bakery….corner of 5th ave/6th calle…interior work, new electrical work and some say that Sept 15th is the date…others? Dec 15th…I’ll go with the last date. What this does, perhaps, is to cement that part of town as ‘Ground Zero’ for business…where in the hell they’ll find parking spaces is another unknown.
So, some in, some out…Jackson’s back from Spain, looking good…Richard the H off to Germany, Portugal and the Phillipines…Max Gonzalez of Lanquin in town, briefly, looking happy/healthy…no word of John, altho I didn’t ask.
and no, that wasnt’ El Chapo in the park today…well, maybe…
Isadore’s long running Land /Rover restoration project over, except for the ‘papers.”…2 and a half years? even by Guate standards, that’s a bit long…and was that Wendy Wever in town, hanging with Angie?
and yes, finally..a bit of rain now and then…I’m still running on last years umbrella, so I’m ahead $-wise…and the race today? never saw so many runners…even Flor the Magnificent was there..and she is, btw..the old Cargo Room, now Samsara the Indian restaurant? looked like they had reinstalled Lex’ old torch on the outside…and where the hell is he?
ok, fine…it’s a quiet rainy Sunday…there’s a book, a fire to be set and another glass of whiskey…adios, hasta manana and all that.
