  1. We are doing a test run in Costa Rica in the next month or so. I’ve never spent more than a week there during the rainy season. This trip we will be there at least a month but probably longer. My only concern is getting back before the Alabama game.
  2. @Teebox good to meet you and the family. We’ve been without power for a few hours but back now. Never know who you will run into here.
  3. I forgot about Escazu which is the “trendy” suburb of San Jose. @midtownor someone on here I know has spent a little time there. I’m sure your friends would know more about some of the other mountain towns.
  4. Some of the mountain towns are cool to occasionally downright cold. I always here a lot of good things about San Isidro and it’s still les than an hour from the beach. There are other mountain towns too with good food/services I just haven’t really looked around - I’ve got to be at a marina.
  5. There is a huge plastic surgery and dental market for foreigners down there. Most of it is very legit. A lot of places are basically walk-in and would have you scheduled basically next day.
  6. Yes that’s fine. Just no job that is physically in Costa Rica.
  7. Costa Rica is really easy. Basically if you are thinking of moving to a foreign country you can afford it. 60,000 deposit in a local bank is the easy way. But you won’t be able to legally work there.
  8. Jealousy over a threesome between passengers sparked 60-person orgy on Carnival Cruise Fixed
  9. Well shit on reread of the thread you were correct. Mea culpa. Your story still sucked. I’m also assuming MikeHoncho is a sock of yours that allowed you to work the pic into a thread.
  10. Hopefully your Phish story was much better. Anyway just in case you still don’t understand it’s a wave you do on 2 lane roads as you pass someone going in the opposite direction. Hope that helps ✌️
  11. Want to know how I know not to read that?
  12. Yup. Not ever gonna top pissing on a tree on a camping trip. Not even gonna try. I dug a gold ole latrine by golly. But man his friends were fucking crazy.
  13. Fascinating story. And as usual not at all related to the subject of the original post.
  14. You’ve led a very interesting life and your posts do nothing to dispel that.
  15. At first I was thinking that was my dad’s username back on Hornfans but now I’m pretty sure it was KeepRC. So same thing.
  16. To be fair, that’s a pretty remote part of Costa Rica but yeah Playa Santa Teresa is definitely a tourist town these days. Wonder how she fucked up to catch the attention of the CR police or someone else there. Basically to get there she could have taken a puddle jumper, bus, or private van. Private van cash pay no ID. The plane would ask for ID and I’m also almost positive the bus there does too. So she did one of those 2 things if that’s how she got caught. But seems like it would have been a much quicker arrest. if she tripped up in Santa Teresa she likely was a moron and used her passport for the hostel. I’ll put it this way, there is basically no local police presence there. Americans go on extended vacations there all the time and wouldn’t attract any attention at all. She did something really stupid to get caught once she was able to get to San Jose.
  17. I mean it’s a barracuda. What’s not to like? Sure it’s a trash fish in most circles but it’s a trophy fish for idiot tourists that pay good money to go fish and end up with that and then get talked into mounting the damn thing. It’s perfect aggy.
  18. ^ @Anastasis seems like that’s about 6 months late. It’s not the variant we are dealing with now as far as I can tell. Unless they think the new vaccine will provide better protection from severe disease than the original?
  19. This. I mean at this point I pretty much assume that 1 out of 15 people I come into contact with have it. I just had it so it’s not a big concern and actually wasn’t a big concern before I got it. This variant is contagious as fuck and trying to figure out who you got it from is pretty much a fool’s errand unless you are locking yourself inside your house. 20 days would be way, way outside the norm.
  20. Exactly. my mom is still sick she’s on day 20 something now. She’s testing negative but still feels bad and isn’t getting out of bed. I hate to think what would have happened if she got one of the earlier more severe variants.
  21. Ha. I popped positive exactly as quickly as you did but mine might have even been 5 seconds. My symptoms lasted less than 48 hours and were never even as bad as bad allergies. are your kids positive too? Trust me I’m firmly in the camp of this variant is now a minor annoyance but actively getting out and around people is still something I would not do. Just to update my saga, 3 of the 4 people in my house last week are now positive and so is the person that was in the car with 2 of them on the way down. I suspect the 4th has it but he feels ok and isn’t getting tested. They also managed to take it back to Dallas (which I guess is good because that’s where they brought it from?) and infect 2 other people so far. Now 3 of the positives are on a road trip to Virginia for a move. On the bright side, we did 2 bbq dinners with friends while they were here and so far all of those people are fine. Another day or two and they should be in the clear. I’m a firm believer in outdoor spread is difficult.
  22. No. It’s insane. Dude a few days ago was walking around with his assault rifle, got stopped. It was all good until they found brass knuckles on him so he got arrested. Might be a Facebook story but this is the world we are living in.
  23. Well the other reason is because you’re football takes suck. Arch choosing us should be a game changing moment. Hopefully we take advantage of it.
  24. He’s senile and/or regarded. Do not engage.
