  1. And we gave them an out Dude basically gave up 5 runs on 1/3 an inning.
  2. I’ve got a bunch of options. I’ll send you a message tomorrow. Need to charge up my Tico phone. And sleep. Damn positive Covid test isn’t letting me go back to sleep very easily. Really depends on where y’all are going for how much to take. If it’s remote you obviously need more. No need to exchange going in they will take dollars just fine. Once you are there it’s best to use colones. Find a recommended ATM and get local cash. Pretty much everywhere will take credit cards and it’s always best to use them. Again it would be way easier to answer all that if I knew if you were going to Manuel Antonio or the Corcovado national park or somewhere else. It’s not like here, your location is going to determine your ease of access to things like banks or ATM’s and it’s going to vary widely.
  3. Not really but I see where you are coming from now. My immediate family has done probably 40 flights in the last 6 months with nobody getting it. Until my dad got it about 3 weeks ago and he hadn’t been on a plane in over a month. He did got to a conference 5 days before he popped positive. And wait for it, see below I just popped positive for the first time. Vaxxed and one booster.The timing of it makes me think maybe it wasn’t from him, but who knows? At any rate I can look back and think maybe I was feeling off 4 days ago. I had a slight headache then that went away and what I can best describe as a tickley throat only it was on the roof of my mouth. So pretty much my normal allergies. That all went away but then tonight I woke up at 1 in the morning when the coyotes went nuts. Noticed my headache was back and I was wide awake and had the free tests, so why not? Never would have tested if my Dad hadn’t been here. It took like 45 seconds to show positive so I used a binax test that also was positive. I feel fine. No fever no cough. A slight headache and still that scratchy throat thing on the roof of my mouth. Thankfully that’s it for now and hope it stays that way. Happy I got the shots and the booster.
  4. Not following your detective work here.
  5. Ha. Guess I should have looked upthread for where you are going. Yeah a car up there is probably good to have.
  6. I’m no help on this either. The parking/traffic situation is so bad there I really say it is easier to not rent a car, unless you are planning on doing a bunch of traveling. I feel like a broken record but I have a car in CR but I hardly ever use it. When I was there for 3 months this winter I probably drove 3 or 4 times. Long trips hire a private driver, bus, or shared shuttle. For around town find a few good taxi drivers and call them directly when you want a ride. Or the buses are easy. Now if you are doing say San Jose to Monteverde to Arenal to Tamarindo or Manuel Antonio and want to explore then yeah rent a car.
  7. Your guess would be as good as mine. Pretty much all the charter boats that are worth a shit are in Los Suenos and Quepos. Rhino Charger and WetAss 2 used to be considered the best up in that area but that’s been years and I have no idea how they are now.
  8. Yeah, doing stuff like this is no fun at all
  9. This team is way more loaded than last year. We bring back every newcomer from last year and we’ve upgraded the rest of the roster. Whoever was picking us in the top 5 preseason last year needs to be picking us #1 this year. Im with Derka. I’ll roll with what we have for bigs especially since Disu should be healthy. I don’t know that people realize how much we missed him last year. Give me a shooter, please. I looked and Hunter wasn’t a very good 3 point shooter in high school either so I don’t think it’s going to come from him. His shooting firm looks repeatable enough so we will see. He should live behind the 3 point line this summer. BItterwhiteasshat’s head is going to explode.
  10. Yeah that lake always scared the shit out of me in the 90’s. I can’t imagine what it’s like now. Boats and water and morons know no bounds though. This holiday weekend one of the most entertaining things to do would be to go to the boat ramp here in Port A with some lawn chairs and a cooler of beer.
  11. Dad finally tested negative yesterday and went home. That was day 14 of Covid prison. His bitch wife made him test again when he got home. I told him if it was positive he needed to turn around and drive back and never go home again. Unfortunately it was negative. My girlfriend and I never got it (also as far as we know we’ve never had it) but my house is set up in a way that it was really easy to keep him isolated. All we did was leave him food outside the door and occasionally sat outside with him on the back deck, but upwind and at least 10 feet apart. Covid cases are spiking here in Port A again. Weekly cases went from 0 to 1 to 2 and now 9. They are out of test kits at the CVS. Memorial Day spike is going to be a thing. Thankfully these alll seem to be really mild cases.
  12. We need to take away the dolphin’s internet
  13. So going by some of todays press conference quotes and info from a survivor in the classroom from this article - https://www.yahoo.com/gma/student-survived-texas-school-shooting-090000830.html Asshole goes in and immediately shoots everyone in the classroom. Cops approach locked classroom door, don’t hear shooting anymore and assume everyone is dead? Wait 40 minutes to engage and discover survivors. Holy shit. Who knows how many more might have survived.
  14. Are you regarded? He posted a tweet from a writer that listed Texas as one of 5 finalists. The tweet has a picture of Beard under “My prediction”. Jesus.
  15. Yup, it’s confusing as shit and seems to change weekly, but technically since Dad is past day 5 and hasn’t had fever he should be good to go. Just should wear a mask in public thru day 10. And that’s why I’ve told him just to stop testing. Fuck whatever his wife has to say. He really needs to get back to Austin to take care of an office move and a house issue before he goes to Europe next month.
  16. He said it was fainter today than it has been. This was his 4th test so hopefully that’s a good sign.
  17. She’s a bitch from hell. Always has been and we’ve never gotten along, had a blowup recently to the point where I will never talk to her again. She accused me and my girlfriend of trying to kill him by taking him fishing. And filming that on a drone. Whatever. She hasn’t even tried to contact me while he’s been here. It’s refreshing. My girlfriend keeps joking that Dad is faking positives just so he doesn’t have to go home.
  18. Dad is still here in Covid jail. This is day 10 and he tested positive again today. I told him to stop testing. He feels fine, hasn’t had a fever in over a week but he is still tired. His wife won’t let him come home without a negative test. WTF?
  19. 675 pound bluefin tuna caught by a friend of mine last week out of Port A at the floaters.
  20. Tell him to tie the port side too, that will keep it from hitting the dock. Also I generally like orange and white color schemes, but holy fuck my eyes.
  21. Yup to all the above. My 78 year old vax/boosted dad came to visit Friday. Saturday night he started having bad allergy symptoms which is not unusual for him. Sunday morning he was feeling pretty flu like, but low fever so I went and bought him a test as he was supposed to go home Sunday afternoon. Positive. By Monday morning really his only symptoms were bad fatigue and no appetite. As of today he’s still tired but appetite is mostly back. We’ve kept him quarantined in our downstairs guest suite and have been leaving him food and drinks outside his door. So far we’ve been lucky and I guess if we make it to tomorrow we are in fairly good shape. Fortunately we weren’t around him much indoors. 3 meals together and 2 of them were outside. We watched some sports together for an hour or so in the same room on Saturday afternoon but he was literally across the room. Never entered his room Sunday. Am I still right that 5 days from our last exposure to him is still considered good to go?
  22. Y’all are needed over here -
  23. Josh Garcia https://tejascharters.wixsite.com/tejascharters. Longhorn, great fisherman and fun guy. I’ve sent a bunch of people from here with him and I’ve gotten nothing but good feedback.
  24. I know a bunch of y’all have stayed there already and know what a great property it is, but Tulemar was just ranked #1 hotel in the world again by TripAdvisor. https://ticotimes.net/2022/05/13/costa-rica-is-home-to-the-worlds-best-hotel-according-to-tripadvisor https://www.tripadvisor.com/TravelersChoice-Hotels
