Summer Solstice
Happy Summer Solstice!. It is so nice to have long days. This is the most exiting day of the year for me. After living here for so long, it seams strange when in COLOMBIA the days are so short. I know that at least it is warm all year long, but I miss my long summer days. The sun going down at 6:15PM is hard to accept, such nice weather and it has to end so soon. What do you think of the shorts days in Colombia, do you miss the 8:PM still light of the northern countries?. ...
El Dulce Sabor De Una Mujer Exquisita
EL DULCE SABOR DE UNA MUJER EXQUISITA (Gabriel GarcÃa Márquez) 'Una mujer exquisita no es aquella que más hombres tiene a sus pies, sino aquella que tiene uno solo que la hace realmente feliz. Una mujer hermosa no es la más joven, ni la más flaca, ni la que tiene el cutis más terso o el cabello más llamativo, es aquella que con tan sólo una franca y abierta sonrisa y un buen consejo puede alegrarte la vida. Una mujer valiosa no es aquella que tiene más tÃtulos, ni más cargos acad ...

Un chistesito.
Muere CHAVEZ y Dios y el Diablo se pelean porque ninguno de los dos lo quiere recibir. En vista que ninguno cede y no hay acuerdo, recurren a mediadores, estos deciden una propuesta de aceptación obligatoria: que alterne un mes en el cielo y otro en el infierno. El 1° mes CHAVEZ va al cielo y Dios se vuelve loco porque le da vuelta a todo: Bloquea los elementos de la oración y la liturgia. Disuelve el sistema de asesorÃa personal de los ángeles. Subasta las nubes. Le regala un kilà ...

Here is one of the reasons why apartment owners don`t want to sublet.
THE REASON WHY LANDLORDS DON`T WANT TO RENT IS: I was told yesterday by the manger of one building at El Poblado that they don't like it when the owners sublet to other people, because of the parade of "strange women" coming in and out late at night and the "Ladies" hang around at the porteria, demanding to get paid and yelling and making commotion! ...

I got robbed in CALI.......
I got robbed here in California USA!. I don`t have to be in Colombia to get robbed. A WORD OF CAUTION to the women that leave their purses unattended at the supermarket. I was at a "Whole Foods" (health food store) yesterday and I payed with a key chain ATM, so I never had to go in my purse. Few hours later I noticed my money bag was missing, I looked everywhere, bur never found it. I had 3 credit cards, 2 ATMs, other charge cards, and my DL and other, and about $120.00 cash. I thought may ...

Minicipio de "RIONEGRO" "Colombia"
I would like to know how many of you have taken the bus to "RIONEGRO" from Medellin. This is a very beautiful area, and the weather is the best; all year round in the 70`s. Rionegro is becoming a party town on the area of Llano Grande. I want to tell you that "RIONGRO" IS ONE WORD, not two. Just like it is Colombia and not Columbia, It is Rionegro and not Rio Negro. Just look at the buses and busetas. This is just a friendly observation. ...

Estados Unidos
I just got back from Colombia. I had a great 8 weeks. In an earlier post Rubito and GS were talking about Colombia`s freedom. I hear many times in my travels, that Estados Unidos es el pais del NO. I think Colombia is a FREE country. Here everywhere you go you are told NO. On our flight from San Andres the person next to us came in the plane with a 16 oz beer!, my bf was in disbelief!!! I was laughing, this is Colombia, a free country! ...

Como esta nuestra gramatica? SABOR
Mi sobrina de 5 anos dijo:"yo sapo a mico". La mama le corrigio:"yo tengo sabor a mico". A mi me quedo la duda acerca de la cojugacion de el verbo saber (en cuanto a sabor no a conocimiento) en primera persona. Ahora la que no "sapo" soy yo!.
Alguien sabe la manera correcta?
Es interesante este verbo irregular. ...
