Toilet Etiquette in Colombia
For a long time now I have been wondering about the toilet habits of Colombians and gringos who live in Colombia. Please if you don’t live here this post is not for you. No one weekers in Colombia please. I want info from people who actually live here. 1. (most important) Do you flush the paper down the toilet? 2. If you don’t flush the paper do you fold it neatly and place it in the waste basket? 3. If you don’t flush do you just throw the paper at hock into the basket with no worries ...
Any Things goes on Freindly Talk Zone
It appears as of late that anything goes on the friendly talk zone. So therefore I would like to added my own worthless commentary to the pile. I always wonder about Colombia. Where are we headed in Colombia? What do you thing Colombia will be like in say 10 years? How will global warming affect Colombia? Should I stay in the high ground or put stakes down in Santa Marta? and since this post is about Colombia it shouldn't be deleted so what do you think about my questions? ...

ROAD TRIP REPORT-Guajira
ROAD TRIP REPORT-Guajira Well last week at the spur of the moment I decided to head out with the family and finally have a look at Guajira. I have been wanting to do this trip for some time now.

GIB post are gone
I see GIB's posts are gone to delete hell. The posts were written because there is a major problem here at PBH. It has been manifesting its self for over a good year now. No one addressed it at the proper time and it has evolved into this ugly animal. I can attest to the fact that the mods have favorites. I was part and party to one such animal about 10 months ago. Deleting GIB's post is not solving the problem my friends. I don't have solutions for you. Peter and the mods need to find a soluti ...

Chiquita liable for torture
NEW YORK (CNN) -- A $7.86 billion lawsuit was filed Wednesday in New York on behalf of nearly 400 Colombian families who say Chiquita Brands International should be held responsible for the "torture and murder" of their loved ones. With a map of alleged victims, Jonathan Reiter makes his case Wednesday at a New York news conference. Attorney Jonathan Reiter said his clients are seeking "damages for terrorism, war crimes ... and wrongful death." The plaintiffs are asking for $10 milli ...

Peter whats going on?????
Peter first of all the site is looking real good I like the clean easy to read look.
BUT, I am finding very hard to answer or add to some threads. They kind of disappear into the woodwork. To access some of the threads I have to retrieve them through my comments. I click latest or most active and they don't appear. I think the recent button you had before was working great. The new button are causing confusing. Maybe it's the demoted thing which I still don't fully understand. For me if a ...

Becoming a Colombian Citizen
I was wondering if anyone on this site has gone thought the process of become a Colombian citizen. I find it necessary to have citizenship for work purposes. I would like to hear about your experiences and your process of going through the system. I have the list of requirements from the ministary(http://www.minrelext.gov.co/Servicios/extranjeroNOhispano.asp)
