WryAwry

I like everybody. Thanks to Barney the Dinosaur.

My schlock runneth over ....

Hi, Penny, Do you mean an "insta-hot", as for hot beverages, or a small tank-type heater? In either event, check the available electrical service against the unit rating. Also, marginal water quality can reduce service life of immersed electrical elements, so pre-filtration may be in order along with proscribed maintenance. Bueno suerte, Dav

Mr. Huber, I'd like to volunteer myself to be the first comment deleted -- the infamy may come in handy if I ever decide to run for political office ... Dav

If I may impose myself upon all my friends and acquaintances down there in Chiriqui to try to imagine, if you will, the torrent of words and impressions waiting to spill off this keyboard .....

Having looked at some of my own contributions elsewhere, I think that about a seven-year editing window would prove beneficial .... It wuz some other dude did it, wryawry

Hola, All, I'd like to again thank Mr. Huber (not to mention HIS Boss!) for the creation of chiriqui.life. While nascent, and obviously still formative, this site is also obviously a labor of love. I have a great deal of appreciation and admiration. There's a lot of stuff going on down there. There are serious issues to grapple with, along with the more mundane day-to-day wrestling matches, problems encountered, and hurdles to leap over. Couple that with the fact that there are still many, many folks developing serious interest in Panama, and the need for a resource such as chiriqui.life is glaringly apparent. As has been witnessed elsewhere, there is also a seeming gap to be filled with people's interest in sharing commentary, observations, and opinions. We're it my decision to make, I would encourage the exchange of ideas along with the exchange of information -- within the boundaries of good sense and common courtesy, of course! I've been informed that wryawry wants to come out and play .... Bueno suerte, Sr. Huber, y mas gracias, Davitt

Hey, Doc, What's with the third-person perspective? Just curious. The wryawry

Let's hope we can all just get along!

Hola, Roger, Your voice is always that of reason, and I am pleased to hear it on this new forum. Bienvenido! Dav

Drump.

Hey, TeeDub, following the evolution of the "new 'n improved" *ning should prove to be .... um, fascinating. I wonder if Lee is gazing down, flying around up in them there clouds? Best, Dav

As goes without saying, maintain extraordinary caution and situational awareness whenever withdrawing cash. Don't put it all in one pocket or purse. A "throw down" bag or wallet with a wad of ones and some expired cards can be an effective diversion. Safety first. Don't make it easy for the maleantes. Keep your head on a casual swivel. It's not paranoia if they really ARE after you ...

I've noted that accessing chiriqui.life on my Kindle does not have the "recent content" tab at the top. Huh. Life is a series of bewildering mysteries for the technically-challenged..... D

True, but one cannot ignore the fact that this is a community-wide drama, of more than passing interest to once and future explorers ....

Howdy. Hope this is as good a place as any to remind users never to post their email addresses in mineable format. Always use the "joe at so-and-so dot com" format instead of "joe@etc.com", and save yourself grief. Signed, Your friendly tech-expert that took days to find the "New Content" tab, above. PS: Oops. Sorry, Joe. Now you'll get a bunch of spam and stuff.

... as so eloquently discussed by Barbara Kingsolver in "Flight Behavior".

And here I always thought that quote was attributable to Yertle the Turtle. Huh.

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dreaglug-glug-glug .....

Concur. Nice to see you again, Mr. Bakke.

3.675 reps, max.

There was this one time, and I got, like, 6 or seven salutations. Probably for something I stole from somebody. Anyways, it made my head explode, and that wuz the end of it. Nice while it lasted, wryawry

I yield these empty spaces to my betters. Sometimes. wryawry

... and, what do you know, I found the "new content" tab. Huh. I shoulda been a detective. Anybody got a deerstalker?
