This old Hippy is Rob who is Sandy's hubby and my ex father inlaw. See, AZB said I hate everybody and I don't. I even have a Hippy as a friend! LOL As usual a nice time was had by all, some new faces and many old faces and I enjoy both!
I am retired from the Real Estate Business in the US and living by the beach on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic in Cabrera. I talk about Real Estate, Investing, Culture and adjusting to it, Travel and Women. --------------- Recently moved (October 2008)to Cabrera from Sosua and will discuss the differences now...

Ok Folks, today is Taco Tuesday and I am going to bring my camera tonight. I have almost a full car but can fit one more in is anyone in Sosua needs a lift in the Free Taco Tuesday Taxi tonight. Call me at 223-1178
Last night was Niko the Commie's birthday and a bunch of us were over at Grahame and Robins house which is on the river in Islabon right by the ocean on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic for some of Grahames English Curry which was out of this world. Some folks were supposed to send me some pictures but alas, I didn't get them yet to post. We had a great time or maybe I should speak for myself, "I HAD A GREAT TIME". Great food and great people and no petty people allowed!
.
Be at Taco Tuesday tonight if you can make it. It is right on the Ocean on Kite Beach in Cabarete, Dominican Republic. Taco Bar is all you can eat, drinks are hearty and the people are a great group of folks.
.
I got a call from Edd or as a lot of you folks know him "Rellosk". He is coming to town on Thursday and I am going to pick him up at the Airport and take him to his hotel in Costambar. It is always great to see Edd and I always look forward to his coming back into town. I will try and get a photo of him all sweaty when he gets off the plane and into the Tropical Weather wearing Winter clothes:)
.
Now I am going to take my beauty sleep so I am refreshed and chipper tonight at Taco Tuesday!
Hasta Pronto!

To all those people that commented on my websites being down I want to apologize and let you know that they are now back up and working great. Actually for the first time even the email is working correctly on all sites.
. I happily recommend:
.
JOSEPH”S RESTAURANT WHICH WILL BE OPEN THE 14th FEBRUARY TO CELEBRATE VALENTINE”S DAY
.
Meals are from 35 US dollars complete with Appetizer, Main Dish and Desert!
.
They are located on the cliffs overlooking the Ocean, Puerto Plata Airport. It is in the Boutique Hotel Sosua by the Sea and this is well worth going to and the price for what you get and the atmosphere is a BARGAIN. If I had someone that I wanted to show them that they were something special I would take them to Joseph's Grill and Grape that day! Give Joe my regards so I can get my commission! LOL, seriously this is the best restaurant in all of the North Coast when you take everything into consideration.
.
This is a picture I found somewhere of me. I know, goodlooking guy, right?
.
I am posting my picture instead of the rest of the Danish Artists Cartoons because I really don't want to do anything to bother a Muslim friend now that I know it bothers him.
.
In another piece I did I mentioned the Danish Cartoons of the spoof on the Muslim Suicide Bombers being told "ENOUGH" we ran out of Virgins and I said I didn't even think my friend who happens to be a Radical Muslim Extremist would find the cartoon objectionable. Well I have to say I was wrong.
.
Not only was I wrong but he needs his prozac now that I said I didn't think he would take offense. He then takes his comments to Israel and Jews although this has not a DAMN thing to do with the CARTOONS but he is too Extreme to get through his hate of Jews, Israel and the United States to even realize this. You can read his comments in the next bit and I am sure on this bit later when he wakes up.
.
He made an arguement that what if Hitler was put on a Cartoon smoking Jews or Sharon in a cartoon killing innocent Palestinians. Again, what does a Danish Artist doing a Cartoon have to do with this but I regress. I was reading another blog and I copied some of a list he posted and it goes like this.
Now Jews have NEVER acted like Muslims act and there is NO COMPARISON to any reasonable person but I argued his points and will continue to because to let BS STATEMENTS of his or others Stand without Comment legitimizes them and I won't let that happen!
I took this from another blog I was reading today and quote them here.
I thought these statements illuminate what has been allowed to go on without reprisals for the most part and explain any reprisals such as the actions in Afganistan and Iraq.
.
Muslims flying commercial airliners into New York City buildings killing 3,000 people from 47 countries?
. Muslims blocking the exit where school girls are trying to escape a burning building because their girls' faces were exposed? .
Muslims cutting off the heads of three teenage girls on their way to their Christian school in Indonesia? .
Muslims murdering teachers trying to teach Muslim children in Iraq? .
Muslims murdering over 80 tourists with car bombs outside cafes and hotels in Egypt? .
A Muslim attacking a missionary children's school in India killing six? .
Muslims slaughtering hundreds of children and teachers in Beslan, Russia, including shooting children in the back? .
Muslims firing rocket-propelled grenades into schools full of children in Israel? .
Muslims murdering 56 commuters, injuring over 700, in attacks on London subways and buses? .
Muslims bombing trains in Madrid, Spain, killing 191 commuters and injuring over 2000? .
Muslims massacring dozens of innocents at a Jewish Passover Seder? .
Muslims murdering innocent vacationers in Bali? .
Muslim newspapers publishing anti-Semitic and anti-Christian cartoons? .
Muslims beating the charred bodies of Western civilians with their shoes, then hanging them from a bridge? .
Muslims videotaping themselves chanting "Allahu Akbar" while they saw the heads off defenseless people? .
Muslim involvement, on one side or the other, in almost every one of the 125+ shooting wars around the world?
.
He also wrote and I will quote the following:
Everybody well knows that these blood-lusting murderers do not represent the majority of the world's Muslims. When, though, does the majority become outraged and outspoken? When do they take to the streets and the airwaves to express their outrage at the minority of radicals who are making their religion the object of worldwide hatred and ridicule?
. Muslim, Salman Rushdie wrote: "As their ancient, deeply civilized culture of love, art and philosophical reflection is hijacked by paranoiacs, racists, liars, male supremacists, tyrants, fanatics and violence junkies, why are they not screaming?" Indeed, why not? And, for those of you who offer an excuse for the supposed majority of rational Muslims who are so conspicuous by their silence--if not now, then when?
End of Quote:
.
Why can't he see that this is the way people are looking at what is going on? Why does he try to make this personal between Muslims and Jews, Israel and the United States? Answer is that he has NO arguement and has to throw BS in the air hoping that some if will stick to the ceiling and someone may buy his line of crap like the rest of them are trying to do.
I am glad I live in a country that has FEW of these people and I won't have to deal with them. Now the rest of the world is starting to understand how the Israelis felt when they had been constantly under attack and not making any headway discussing things with these people for the most part. You can't reason with Wackos in my opinion and nothing good can come of discussions with people who have no sense of right and wrong.
. Another thought that I have expressed before is that if Muslims loved their CHILDREN as much as they hate Jews and Israel there would have been peace a long time ago!
Hasta Pronto!
I have to tell you, I love these cartoons. The guy that thought this stuff up is a genious! I would even bet my buddy AZB would even think these are funny.
.
It is one thing to try to impose your religous will on those that share your religion but to try and impose your crazyness on the rest of the world is just too strange for words. These are just people that are looking for a riot about anything in my opinion.
.
The rest of the world practices Freedom of Speech and this is something you folks will have to tolerate or not be accepted into civilization as human beings.

Next case, today I was a waiter for Dori who has the restuarant at Eddy's Sports Bar in Sosua on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic. I knew it would be a busy day and he had this very nice Dominican young man working and I knew he wouldn't be able to handle the crowd so I stepped up and worked my Darn BUTT off today. I must have done 25 to 30 dinners myself and that was in 2.5 hours. He probably did another 10 to 15 dinners that the Dominican young man.
.
This was a decent day all around because he was real busy at Lunch as the European Round Ball Fans were in since this morning. Anyway I met a bunch of nice people, seemed that Dori made a bunch of new customers as there were many comments made to me that "This was the best meal I have had since I am here" kind of comments and one guy said he was going to eat there every day:)
.
After my stint as a waiter I was hanging out outside the Bar getting some fresh air and chatting with a few guys. I told them that I was embarrassed that since Dori has been opened which is only about 21 days I must have eaten there 14 of those days. The other two guys said that they were worse and they were eating 2 meals a day there most days! LOL
.
Check out Dori's Restaurant next time you are in Sosua. Try the Thai Curry with either Chicken, Pork or Beef or the Japonese Noodles with the same choices. He will cook the curry to your liking and he really tries to light me up which is great for me. Also another favorite of mine is the Thai Sesame Chicken Salad. That is a real meal even though it doesn't sound like it. YUM, YUM, Yum!
.
Tomorrow I am going to look at some real estate to purchase. I have a mortgage in the states that is paying off this week and the money is already burning a hole in my empty pockets:) You never know, I may just find something that is nice and I may just put some offers in. I am looking forward to closing on two lots this week that I came to terms on 2 weeks ago. They are located in El Batey in Sosua in a section called Villas Anna Maria. That is the section between Pedro Clisante and the main road that goes from Puerto Plata to Samana. These two lots are side by side and I have no idea what I am going to do with them yet but I will own them as soon as I get a closing date from my attorney.
.
I went up to my mini-finca today. Said hello to Billy, Goat and Butthead. I have three trees that are budding now and starting to flower. These are the most beautiful flowers I have seen on a tree. Tomorrow I will take some pictures for this blog and your enjoyment. I also have a fruit tree coming into fruit. Don't know the name but they are little green fruit that may even be smaller than limes. I have figs up my gazoo, plantanos all over the place and tons of Yuca. Maybe if Dori is good to me I will give him Escotts world famous Yuca Fritter recipe:) If you see a special on his menu it better mention my name on it! LOL
.
Well my sorry ass is very tired from working which I am not use to. I am going to play some online Holdem and go to sleep!
.
Hasta Pronto and may Gawd take a liking to ya!
PS> Post a comment and click on a google ad will ya!
This may be me tomorrow night. I am helping Dori at his Restaurant and I guess Eddy as well. Tomorrow is Superbowl Sunday folks at Eddys Sports Bar in Sosua. Food, drink and Escott as a waiter.
.
They expect a hundred people in the place tomorrow and I figured I would help Dori out.
.
Tonight I watched this Ultimate Fighting on the big screen and I was trying to count the brain cells being spent but don't know how these guys keep it up for 5 minute rounds. .
Eddys was PACKED tonight people. The whole dining room was filled to the gills and so was the bar.
.
So, tomorrow, just look for the White Gringo who doesnt have a clue and say hello! LOL
Hasta Pronto!
Bor- You really aint such a bore!
Seriously folks, a real decent guy with a good sense of humor and doesn't take himself too seriously! Good guy! I really mean "Come back Soon"!
Hasta Pronto!
These are the Indians taking Batting Practice. These are kids 17-19 years old who have been drafted and signed. After attending School they will be assigned to the Minor Leagues in the States and around the world.
Before I couldnt get these pictures to upload and now they are here twice. I apologize but I am not going to start all over again.
Hasta Pronto!
Now THIS was my waitress. I don't know how they all have such lovely smiles but they do! I love these women, always friendly with a great smile and man oh man every one of em can't DANCE and have this engine that must have several hundred horsepower on them! Comon folks you know what I mean when I say "The Bump Out", right? Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm I love these women!
I don't know if they were busy earlier but I didn't get to have my first meal of the day until 2 pm but the tables started filling by the time I finished. Great spot for lunch if you are in Sosua and going to the beach as it stands right on the corner that goes down to the beach. La Roca is the name and it is a nice quaint place with good service!
Hasta Pronto!

Hasta Pronto!
Now when I saw this I absolutely cracked up. One of my pet peeves are parents that leave their children to be parented by whomever is around. You need to take a test to drive and I truly think you should have to take a test to Procreate for heavens sake. Some people don't care how annoying their kids are to others and I always found it annoying paying a babysitter to be annoyed by other peoples BRATS in a Restaurant or movie! Watch your kids people and don't let them be a annoyance to others when you should be watching your kid!
If you have read my blog for a while you will know that I love kids a whole lot more than I like adults and I am not bitching about kids here people, I am bitching about their inconsiderate parents who should be shot more often than not.
Ok enough ranting. I am sitting in my condo which I moved back into yesterday. HORRAY!! I have a guy coming to Sosua to show me a Harley Davidson Fat Boy that is for sale. If I like it I am going to buy it! I have to get that T-shirt if I do that says, "if you can read this the Bitch fell off" What an awesome T-shirt! I will then let my hair grow and get some Tats. What do you think?
At 3-4 o'clock I am going to visit a Winery/Dystilery that was put together by Avacado Brian and his wife. One of my dreams was to own a winery but that will never happen. I had a friend in California that had one and he sent me a bunch of info and I bought a lot of books but alas, this will be plan number 9231 which didn't work out:) Plan number 823 was to buy a Harley in the States and take it to Europe and tour the continent. Sell it when I was through and buy a Mercedes to return with and sell both at big profits. Hey you never know about that one:)
Man this cracks me up. Great payback to inconsiderate parents:)
Ok, I am sitting here waiting for the Harley to show and crusing other blogs and stealing their photos for my blog. I am going to go take a shower:)
Hasta Pronto you all!
