Ngäbe-Buglé Comarca, Tole, Panama

I spent the day with these fine people. Very friendly, polite, welcoming and willing to share history. We ate their food and appreciated their customs. My two friends teach on the Comarca. They get 1.5 days off a week from their teaching jobs. They travel to the Comarca on Sunday afternoons and return home late Friday afernoon. They have to bus to their work and then ride a 4x4 truck up the mountains. There is running water and a small amount of electricity. Omar torrijos' son gave them small so

Terrorist/France

It appears Europe and the Middle East have had more attacks than the USA since 9-11 and the Invasion of Iraq. Hopefully the security in the USA stays on track. Many attempts in the USA have been foiled since 9-11. I don't have any family in France but this is tragic and our prayers are with those affected.

Water Restored

The water to my condo was restored sometime during the night. These guys did the best they could no matter how skilled they are at their jobs or profession. And, at least a poIitcian showed up. I would never make fun of them when commenting on a water outage after all I live in "THEIR" country. Sadly these comments were posted on a thread I started about a water outage. Having said this, I will no longer allow these kind of remarks on MY blog or MY public post. These types of defamations were al

The Holidays - Prime Time for Crime

The holidays are upon us once again and there are lots of “extra” people in town and some who are looking for extra spending money. You don’t want to be their cash machine.   Let’s review a few “best practices” that can reduce the likelihood of coming to grief at any time of year, but the holidays in particular. DON'T LEAVE VALUABLES IN YOUR CAR. This almost seems too obvious, but in his talk at the BCP theater the other day, the new Minister of Security for Panama related how he had left his la

Old Aunts

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poke me in the ribs and cackle, telling me, “You’re next.” They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Some people just take life too seriously, were born jerks or enjoy being jerks, or are unhappy with the decision they made to move to Panama and most of all,-------(The Know It All). So, thanks for the "Peace Of Mind Button."
