I don’t like one bit the way USA is heading, everything us bleeding heart liberals worked so hard for in the 60’s is going down the drain. They've found hanging nooses (symbols of hatred) and swastikas in one of the most prestigious university in USA, Columbia University, located 10 blocks from where I reside in the most liberal, diverse city in the world. In other states ( red states) this is no big deal, is the norm BUT NOT in NEW YORK FOKIN CITY
I’M OUT!!!
Ok, I could leave within months instead of waiting years for retirement but that would only be possible if I move to Medellin, Envigado to be exact.
My wify has a brand new fully paid for apt; all I have to do is pagar por servicio and maintenance. But, what does a modefoque like me who loves the beach, noise, chaos, heat, dancing, laughter, lots of people and traffic gonna do in the middle of the jungles and mountains.
I’m not trying to be a regionalistic prick here; I really question how happy I’ll be living there. I doubt I’ll get any free cachaca chucha , they can’t stand dark costeños.
Where would I go on weekends, parque Lleras and then where?
Jefe Cafétaria? To see how they make fokin coffee, then what? is that it?
If you go outta city limits, them FARC modefouqes will take my car and leave me stranded in the middle of the fokin jungle. Where do people go? Will I be stuck in that city?
While in Barranquilla, I have family all over the fokin place, parties and clubs all over that noisy, congested chaotic curramba. One weekend I’ll head to Cartagena, just one hour away or Santa Marta, Parque Tyrona also one lousy hour away. Drive up and down the safe Caribbean coast to Rihoacha or Cobeñas
The traveling possibilities are endless.
Don’t know what the fok to do, which city is best for me? I welcome all comments from cachacos.
I already know why gringos love Medellin, for the endless free chucha.
Thank you!!

john_stark says on Nov 6, 2007, 05:44: Polls show that most Americans agree with you. I think nearly 80% said the country was headed in the wrong direction. I think we're about to see some big changes in the near future. I just wish we'd see Cheney swinging from a pole like Mussolini.

b bruce says on Nov 6, 2007, 10:08: Elmo, sorry to hear things are so bad in NYC. But I think just a little over reaction! How did you feel when the Clinton Adnministration burned all those American Citizens to death in Waco, Texas? A direct violation of the Constitution using federal troops to attack and murder american citizens! You must have been on the computer addressing PBH how great things were here at that time! The date April 19, 1993. Hey, here's a great idea! Take your NY Senator who is from Chicago, ILL. with you! She does not stand a snowballs chance in hell as the leader of the free world. But hey, the people of Medillen might buy her bullshit hook line and sinker! Then you could have a Medillen mayor who is from Chicago, ILL who worked in New York but is actually from Colombia. And a life long fan of Colombia"s national soccer team!

john_stark says on Nov 6, 2007, 20:44: The older you get the more you realize what is really the most important thing in life. It's chucha. Nothing else matters. You can have all the money and fame and fortune or you could be a bum in an alley - all that matters is whether you're getting some chucha. You get the chucha - you're happy. You don't get the chucha - you're not happy. The fisherman wants the trucha but I'll fish for the chucha.

morphus says on Nov 7, 2007, 06:36: No more hookers on 42nd street either. Just an ocasional crackwhore. If the police catch you, you're getting arrested on the spot. If you are in your car, they take take that too and impound it. It will cost you thousands to get the car back. They will put your name in the newspaper to shame you even more :)
