Recon

Finally made it back to San Jose for some journalism work, as per request. If I had a camera, I could show photos of the recently deserted Taiwanese Residence. I could also show the embassy, but the rats carrying the sofa above their head might disgust our female viewers. I'd love to report a diplomatic solution to Taiwan's presence in the region, but that would involve looking at newspapers. I'm on vacation, therefore recycled Tom Wolfe novels and Oprah books of the month (Cien Anos de Soledad) are about as in depth as I intend to get.

I have actually spent the bulk of my time in Nicaragua. Cheaper, nicer folk, fewer backpackers, etc. My return to Costa Rica has produced one serious downer -- my external hard drive got swiped out of my backpack. Byebye 50G of music. law notes, 1G of porn, and all my photos (3)...
