Wendy F….king Wever!….back, seen at Angie Angies this evening…back for a month and looking tanned and good…Turkey agrees with her and yes, i warned a few bar owners…’be on the lookout for Miss 1-800-Tequila…an old joke…what’s up with Cashbar? ‘free drinks from 8-9 and 5q drinks from 9-1am?…are times that hard here in A-Town?…
‘ran into Ron Fortin, Mr Saxophone, around El muro..yep, he’s playing tomorrow at Ocelot(evening shift,early)…with the looming departure of both Piano Mike and Nelson, minus also Ignacio…there’s a hole, musically speaking that could be filled..
where do the ‘christian groups’ go in the evenings?…just wondering…if it isn’t for salsa lessons, bible study or ‘come to Jesus’ meetings, just WTF do they do at night?..gotta be boring as hell, whatever it is…maybe they play chinese checkers with the Mormon missionaries..maybe they practice the missionary position…i applied for a job at a church once, for the ‘m’ position but they didn’t call back..
ah! bocce ball!….went by the new Nido Antigua mini-mall..Alex Long’s new idea next to Fusion..in back is this great as yet undeveloped space…so…I said…”bocce ball courts!’….could be…some time, some how…go by and put in a word, if that’s something you’d like to see…a simple eye-talian game…but fun…not a lotta rules, and even you could do this…tell Alex I said to go ahead on this idea..
the June edition of ‘Our Man in Antigua-stan’ is gonzo…whoopee..the July version hits the streets tomorrow…’get yours while the getting is gooder’..Christmas, you know, is just around the corner..assuming that 12/22/12 or so really isn’t the end of the world…order now..i need the $$…
‘stopped by Sabe Rico and their new ‘chocolate room’…superb and they’re going head to head with Fernando and the Choc Museo…totally artisanal Guate chocolates and they all look great..go by…try to leave without buying something…I did, thanks to a pop at Travel Menu, interspersed with a final final at dos Reilly’s…5th avenida’s evening restaurants mostly full…Caffe Bourbon doing gooder, Tacodiscontento empty…same o, same o…Sangre? why bother? one wonders(I do)if the change, i.e. Djinn..moving across the street, as Ricardo did with Tabacos y Vinos, will improve biz? in his case, yes..big time..is it all about location/feng shui? will the upcoming belly dance-off at Gaia do anything? film at eleven..
