Default Re: Loren:Mazara reaction to the jeers

Loren: Guido Mazara in a shameless response to the booing went on to say "I kind of like that...it goes to show you I am somebody. People only react like this agaisnt people who are somebody" His honorable father, Maximiliano Gomez, who died at the hands of Balaguers 12 years of terror would have turn in his grave. By the way, did you know Guido went to see Balaguer to negotiate votes for Hipolitos reelection? What a sibling?

My good man("TW"),If you choose to use the English Language,please use it correctly! If this "Guido" chap is the son of Mister Gomez,he cannot be his brother at the same time!I strongly urge you to invest in an English dictionary! Miriam

Default They shoot fireworks

because they can!
When we were kids in the DR, that was one thing that got my brothers going. Unfortunately, my brother nearly shot off his own hand. They have fireworks in the Florida keys, and in Hawaii too. My guess, it's only we from the north, where it's cold, and nobody wants to go outside and freeze their buns off, where fireworks are not customary on Christmas and New Year's.
Fireworks in the tropics! We have a dusting of snow compared to your hot. Wish I were there.

Default To PIB . Marvel??? Cultural marvel???

A marvel??? What about culture??? Or the lack of it! You are not an intellectual person in need of culture??? Or perjaps you can enlighten me!? WHere do I find the cultural establichemtn of Santo Domingo? As a comparison, when I was in Frankfurt in October, I went to the english theater and saw Death of a Salesman. Then I enjoyed talking to people visiting for the bookfair. What should I do here???

Default Already been there, Pib!

PIB! Thanks for the advice! I do appreciate it! However, I have already visited The Book Store (in Sarasota) and I just had lunch in Thesaurus, and to be honest, the selection of english books is lousy!!! Imagine, this is a city with 2.000.000 people! Gee wiz!

And I can not use Amazon.com cuz the damned postal service is unreliable!

I guess I have to accept the fact that this is a developing country, try to blend in, drink Presidente and get a gun...

Default Re: Criss Colon(AKA)Miriam Webster

The sibling thing is a reference to "Que hermanito me gasto?" which is a Dominican figure of speech.

Now, you should not be the one correcting my English. Yours is by far too elementary in comparison to mine. Schools in Southern Illinois have some of the lowest national ratings in America.

What you should invest is in a way to hide to IP address which is known by everyone here. Just check every Criss Colon posting and you will see your own foolishness.

Default Re: . Marvel??? Cultural marvel???

Well it depends on what you mean by culture..if you mean snubbing the real people to look important then thats not for me!In general I have always thought that being real..no matter what your monetary value is ..is much more important.And by the way..I haven't much money but I've had a great life. I've lived on both sides of the tracks and have learned that what you own isn't important but enjoying what you have,freinds,family,and life,is what matters most!And I love life,and this country!
