meu amigo quando u estará viajando a Egipto? Eu estou contente de ouvir-se que você se está mantendo ocupado!

ciao

My Egyptian friend has had a delay. Her divorce has not been "registered" properly over there, so she is still technically married there - which under those archaic laws means that if she goes there, her ex can legally prevent her leaving. So- we wait.

Until then, Peru, Brasil (Rio e Recife) and Colombia will fill my time. Life could be worse. ;)

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 09:06:

was that smile after the bad ice hahahah

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 09:17:

same problem, different incident. ;) Not that it happens that often, mind you. This foto was taken in Melgar....Ron Medellin, as I recall- vaguely. jajajajajaja I'm pretty sure I was visiting an uncle of a friend there...or maybe it was a cousin. Amazing how much bad ice there is in the world, no?

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 09:55:

I know, o how some people blame the poor ice when they have too much rum uhmm :)))).

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 09:55:

Are you sure was in Melgar hehehe

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 10:01:

Pretty sure. I AM certain that where the bad ice was. The foto? Not so sure. jajajajajajjaa May have been in Fusa-something-or-other.

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 11:59:

Colombia hahah, yes blame it on the Ice.. I always blame the glass, it's too big ha! and the wrong color heheh

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 12:00:

Obviously, we have similar problems.....jajajajajajjajaa

Before you throw me out, make sure I pay my bar tab

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 12:54:

well at least we know it's no our problem, we will be fine if they have the correct glass and good ice!!

i totally understand you!!! people now don't know anything

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 14:21:

It's rough, being so misunderstood sometimes.

The looks I get from bartenders, when I ask if they mind if I inspect the glassware, and query them about the quality of their ice machines.

I just like knowing what I'm getting into, you know? ;)

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 14:27:

i totally agree, you never know.... btw nice shirt very colorful. color zapote ;)

btw I want to try bad ice too jaja

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 16:06:

Thanks! It's one of my favorites - but of course, it's yours, whenever you want. ;) Or one like it.

I'm sure there's LOTS of the bad ice available in NY, but I haven't been there for a year or so, so I can't speak authoritatively. But here in sunny, warm, welcoming Florida, I'm an expert! Any time!

kat1 (Moderator) says on Oct 26, 2007, 16:13:

ajjaja

slguy says on Oct 26, 2007, 16:20:

I'm assuming "small" is your size? Long sleeves for that nasty Welsh weather, or short ones? Or do you prefer the huge original? jajajajajjajajaa

And what are you doing here so late, young lady?

slguy, there's a lot of value in the experience you gained from your business venture. They say you learn more from the mistakes. Next time you get up the courage to make another attempt, we can pool our knowledge to make it a safer bet for you!

slguy says on Nov 15, 2007, 13:56:

I never stopped, R77. That ill-conceived plan taught me VERY well- ALWAYS have a local partner/advisor. In fact, I'm in the process of two South American startups now. I have a short little span of attention, so I LOVE starting businesses, getting them profitable, then selling them off. My worst nightmare is having to manage ANY one business for 10 years. *yawn*

Having said that- I'm always open to suggestions. As long as no restaraunts are involved. jajajajajjaa

you've a long list of admirers. i've been around here seven years and don't have that. however, peter screwed the servers up and lost all my old/early posts under another password and told me it was too complicated to dig it out. those were my best posts, real talk about the reality of living in colombia years ago.

Lisa Zee says on Dec 8, 2007, 16:58:

Slguy: thank you for sticking your neck out for me today. I think it is time to stop the bastard. JS. should be booted out of this place, he is a disgrace to this forum.

slguy says on Dec 8, 2007, 17:11:

sin problema. I don't think of it as sticking my neck out, Lisa. Just voicing my opinion. He's a pain in the ass, and this forum would be better off without him, in my opinion.

OK breast man....I got your comment about the cruise, ajja. Well either I am a glutton for punishment or simply belive in the old adage "get back on the horse after you've been thrown off" - Maybe that's why I am on this forum. If I wanted to block or stuff bad experiences I'd run everytime I see the word Colombia - correct? Instead this site is good sensitivity training for me jaja

Plato says on Feb 18, 10:16:

Hey, what's up Captian Slguy? I'm just plain busy. I'm teaching a college course in macroeconomics in addition to my day job. I'm also teaching religion for adult education. So, I'm trying to juggle many balls at the same time.

For a while, the board turned into a "20 questions" forum with all it's variations. While interesting, I felt most of the detailed stuff inappropropriate for the public square. I'm a little old-fashioned that way. Why not have a party and find out in private, like out at sea in a boat? You see what I mean?

Hey, I know it's the internet, but I can express my opinion too. We talk about religion, politics, and why not sex? Of course. But some how, it got a little too ruanchy for me. . . one poster here was purring and so forth! It's all good, but then it became too surreal for me. I began wondering what people did with their time during the day????

Slguy, glad to hear you're doing well. I haven't seen much of the old guard posters either, but I'll pop in more often.

Warm regards,

Plato
