PBH / colombia (travelguide, pictures) / post

Any explicitally opinionated people out there?

Hi everyone, Colombia Reports hopes to do a big upgrade in a few weeks, bringing more news than now, a different look and introducing OPINION. We are looking for a big mouthed ex-pat that speaks English fluently, who will want to contribute. Who of your collegue PBH-ers do you consider opinionated, interesting, funny and obstinate enough to do this? I suggest you all drop names. Mind you, you don't have to agree with the guy or girl, we just want him or her to stir up some discussion.

I'd do it but I'm too big of an ass, too obstinate and too opinionated. I would piss off every reader and the website would go bankrupt - we'd all be juggling ramas de fuego on la ochenta in order to make rent.

My vote is between 2 people; britabroad or Kelder, both are witty, intelligent, and would be perfectly capable of winning any argument and pushing the right buttons to draw people into saying what they want.

Bingo, Colombiareports, you hit PBSH on the head, take your pick there are about 10 people that would qualify in the Olympic hot air category, watch about 10pm and later, the no lifers come out

I would put my own name in the hat, but I think tejasmarcos is a bigger asshole than me so maybe he would be the better man.... ;)

The "lovemedellin website" is a piece of crap made by some moron who has only been to Medellin once...you'd be better off reading the Lonely Planet advice from a guy who never even came here!
