Ahren Grauer

Someone built a small Cock Fighting ring in the field behind my house here in Alto Boquete opposite the highway from Plaza SF. There must have been over a hundred people screaming bloody murder from 8pm Saturday to 7am Sunday morning 50' from house. I was so loud it was rattling my windows and I didn't sleep at all. I thought Cock Fighting was illegal in Panama and there were noise ordinances?  The Police were involved in it and didn't do anything.

Sad news. I knew her very well. I'm crushed.

Moving out of Panama and everything must go! Kitchenware, small appliances, decor items, some linens, electronic gear, speakers, security systems and cameras, art work, bedding, battery back-ups, etc.

 

Sale starts at 10:00 AM sharp this Saturday the 31st. at the two story white house on the Boquete/David Hwy. across from Plaza San Francisco/Scotiabank.

Daniel give me a call la manana at 6737-4051. Your neighbor Ahren across the street.

Most of the problem is old retired drunk idiots here thinking they are above the law and drive drunk, and the stupid Panamanians that can't drive for ****!

I'm sorry to report that none of the home improvement centers carry this trim, Hopsa, Cochez, Franklin Jurado, Novey, or Doit.

It is not a trim, but a gasket or shut off for insects, bats, lizards, birds, etc

My neighbor is Ngabe and works as an English teacher at the comarca above Tole. He said the biggest problem is the spread of AIDS and 50% are infected.

Thanks, I'll make the rounds in David.

 

It's the missing link when integrating flat surfaces and corrugated panels as depicted in the attached photo.  Unfortunately it's not commonly used here.  The hunt continues!

Lack of roof to wall flashing is funny. I have built in the most exclusive areas in the US, for billionaires. Panamanians don't know how to build!

Ahren,

 

It comes down to cost and time to repair.  Underground utilities experience far less disruptions however are far more difficult to detect and resolve problems versus above ground lines. 

I see what you're saying. Underground here wouldn't be installed correctly and cause even more problems and longer outages. I get it.

What I can't comprehend is why the electrical main feed to Boquete wasn't ran under ground during the widening of the highway a few years back! Piss poor planning as usual here. Some idiot that can't drive runs off the highway and takes out a trunk line concrete power pole below los Molinos a while back and the whole area was without power for the day? WTF? 

Does anyone have a pair you're looking to sell? Or,  where would I find them at a store in Chiriqui?

Thanks in advance.

Did anyone else find this statement arrogant and out of place?....
