It's part of the PBH addiction!... Remember, I couldn't even resist and I was only in Colombia for a couple of weeks... Aren't you going to be there like 6 months?.... Algo asi no....

I've only been to Medallo once. Met a few paisas who all seemed to be lawyers, or studying law (as Colombia is a very law abiding nation). All of them took pride in teaching me as many pirobos as I could learn. All of them got an immense kick out of watching me go up to groups of Colombian strangers and say "Entonces que, marica". There was always an awkward silence for a second or two, while they decided whether or not to clock me. Then they would usually laugh and offer to buy me a drink.

Hola Man T, Podski, Monpi, MS, GS and all "my" crew...

I,m in pereira at the moment and its a lovely day...

I,ve been thinking of you all and what you,ve all been up to on here, meanwhile, I was extremely under the weather and lost alot of weight, which I,m now starting to gain back, surprise surprise.

Things have changed dramatically, all my plans and dreams are coming true, I am so in love with Colombia, like Billy said I,ve been between cali-pereira alot and cant help preferring cali and el valle, even though pereira is so beautiful. I have been staying alot in a finca in tulua and another in zarzal, and its a great escape, especially en mi estado.

I,ll try post some pics of the finca, please be patient with me as I am all over the place at the moment, travelling alot, visiting different families and primos, tios, tias, abuelos, you name it.

Ok honeys, I ,ve missed you alot, man t I miss your jokes and your humour, podski, have you found a lady yet?, HG are you managing to keep these guys in line? Webmanco, gracias por tus palabaras, como siempre amable..and billy ah mi amigo del alma, los quiero a todos.

Para volar, es preciso tener resistencia. -M.Lin

Mona, good to hear from you! I developed a major craving for champus when I was expecting my first one in Cali, just had to stop by the morena with the huge kettles on the Guadalupe under the great Ceiba trees every day on my way home...that's probably why my son turned out to be so smart

I'm so happy Mona surfaced and posted herself! I think she's been escaping to the fincas to get away from us!

Welcome back Mona and many, many happy returns because we've all missed you so very much.

Desi - I can see you and Mona on a thread about being pregnant and comparing notes about childbirth! You two could scare the guys away with such talk!

No, billy, I never used that one. Wouldn't have worked with my little scientist son. He would've given me a two-hour lecture onhow ridiculous the whole concept of earth opening up and swallowing people was and then a long lecture on the intricacies of the heaven and hell don't really exist and they are just invented by the rich and powerful to keep poor buggers working for them on slavery wages.

I still think military school would've done some good...or maybe not.

Jaja, we're like mother. like son, except that I'm more concise. I tried the tougher approach but to no avail...the only way to get anywhere was to reason with him. Sunday mornings, me trying to read the newspaper and him talking about molecular biology...for god's sake, at breakfast! Switching into the existence of good and evil, our favorite topic; while I firmly sustained thatthere is absolute good and absolute evil he sustained that they were just different shades of light we all have within ourselves...

With my daughter it was different...she'd get pissed off (can't a person even have a cup of hot cocoa in peace and quiet in this house) rush into her room and force me go shopping withher later...
