They are extremely laid back. Their driving behavior is just bizarre. Our driver kept saying “Chupador de culo” and it always made me laugh but now that I drive my own car here some I know what he meant. Like Austin, Quepos has a bad grackle problem. These little birds have learned how to mimic a car horn because they hear it so often.

For rational, healthy people, yes.

Well we didn’t get finished today so I did not get to take @ernest_t_bassout for a cruise. I’m 99% positive we will be done tomorrow so he just needs to stay one more day. Fishing is still kind of slow but the marlin are still around. Typical day is raise 2 or 3 marlin and 8-10 sails. I’m here 3 more weeks if anyone wants to come fish.

I knew specifying cloth would trigger some of y’all. Please explain. I’m talking about going into a store or restaurant or whatever. I’m an asshole for wearing a cloth mask? You’re the one with the problem not me.

Ulcerative colitis here. I was in my 20’s when I got it and like a typical guy refused to keep up with my meds and checkups. Well, that didn’t work out so well for me and I had my colon removed about 20 years ago in an emergency procedure. A few years and 3 additional surgeries and I’ve been “cured” ever since. Just have to use the bathroom about 5 times more often than most people.

Cool. I wear my cloth mask anywhere it’s required even though it does nothing for me or you. It’s not a big deal to me. But the mask theatre is ridiculous. Walk into a restaurant wearing a mask but take it off when seated. Wear a mask on the plane but take it off to eat or drink. Sorry, that’s just regarded. Most of us have accepted that we are going to live with this shit forever and realize that other than getting vaxxed there is nothing we can do about it.

I’ve been in Costa Rica for a few months and we see that here a lot. A large majority of the locals wear masks everywhere no matter what they are doing. Walking down the street, riding a bike, in the car, in every store, etc. It’s weird and funny because Ticos in general basically ignore laws. Traffic laws aren’t even a suggestion here because nobody obeys them. Makes it really interesting to drive around here.

Yeah so they’ve been working on it for about 10 days now. Took the parts off and took them to the shop, cleaned and painted the stuff that is still good, got new parts for some of it, now putting it back together. Honestly I thought I knew a little about the engines but after watching them do this 90% of the time I’m thinking what the fuck is that? I’m glad I’m not a diesel mechanic.

A bunch of us are back to normal. Get the vaccine/boosters and go back to living your life. You should try it there’s a whole great world out there.

Progress. First pic was 2 days ago and the other is this morning. They still need to get those parts installed and then do an oil change and then we are good to go.

Met @ernest_t_bass and his 2 young daughters (no pics) at the marina last night. They’ve done the waterfall tour and zip lining and seem to be having a good time. My boat is having the 1000 hour service done right now and I’m hoping it gets finished today so we can take them on a booze/sunset cruise this evening.

Any new news on this? Friend of mine is leaving CR tomorrow to head back to Texas. He just headed into town to get his test done. Right now I’m booked to fly home in mid April and hoping I won’t have to get tested by then. Of all the stupid shit the CDC has done the last few years this may be the worst.

Lol no he’s not. That’s like ztejas calling Cunningham a 50% 3 point shooter. Sample size and all.

Bullshit wtfffffffffff. No foul?

Ok, one shot to make your first sweet 16 ever. Get er done.

Man I’m going to miss Big12 basketball.

Oh shut the fuck up. GO FROGS!

Yup. Combine that with our 10 minute drought AND the extra points they scored at the line. And we still had a chance to win it with 2 minutes left. Unreal game our guys played. And exactly why we hired Beard. Shake’s ass would have lost by 50.

I see you are regarded too. In the other year Barnes had the NPOY (I said #1 pick but regardless), he fucking went to the Final 4. What do you think might have been the difference? Same coach. so besides naming a bunch of players that played for Duke and Carolina and Kentucky and Michigan that mostly lost in the round after Durant did, you’re left with a Utah player who won a whole extra game, a dude from Ohio State that won a whole extra game, and Blow U. All of which are better basketball programs than we ever were before or since Barnes. after you cut your list off you have a player at Creighton who lost in the 2nd or 3rd round, kaminsky who was great and on a hell of a team, Hield who lost in the sweet 16 (and I loved watching him play), Mason at KU, a national champion at Villanova, a first round or 2nd round loss at Dayton, Zion - elite8 I think at Duke, Cunningham at OSU. I’m sure I missed one or 2. In other words more than half did “better” than Durant but almost all played at better basketball schools. And Ford made the Final 4. So I’d pretty much call that par for the course for those types of players. Oh, the other thing. We never GOT those kind of players before Barnes.

Trump is a disgusting piece of human excrement. If he was right it was an accident. And I’m a Republican.

And we all know how that turned out. Now do the other years.

It proves you don’t know fuck-all about what you are talking about.

Ugh, I was at that Memphis game in Houston staying in a downtown hotel with a bunch of Memphis fans. They made me appreciate how “nice” the Syracuse fans were at the Final4 in New Orleans. Memphis fans suck.

You may want to look at a list of number 1 draft picks, which Kevin wasnt, and see how they did in the tournament.

Our basketball “fans” suck. Y’all are on here shitting on a coach that was far and away the best we’ve ever had here. It’s not even close. Did the end of his tenure suck? Sure it did. But he put us on the map in a way we’ve never been before and got us in a position to hire Shakablah. Utter failure but he was turning down teams with way better pedigree than we have. And then we got Beard. A bunch of us really, really like what we are seeing. But sure let’s go back to Penders and Weltlich and Lemons and Black and Bradley. the vitriol for the best coach we’ve ever had, by far, is amazing. We’ve had 36 NCAA tournament berths since WW2. 16 were under Barnes.
