A,

What’s the difference – ther all th f-in same…. Ojala algunas son diferente!

[diego]

Yeah, it bounced, just like all the rest of em.

[diego]

Previous improper planing on their part, won’t constitute and emergency on your part – ehh Scott. Well-put post.

[diego]

Good idea and excellent post – mysticmaiden – go get em. if more people had the attitude you do there would be less people being swindled by attorneys here, as more would know that you need representation to deal with your representation.

Obviously because you replied to my post, you have not “Quit reading his stuff” (whaaaaaa) Who is bawling like a calf? So your personal honesty matches your philosophy – dependent on the situation.

At the risk of being called a “last word freak” I reply, at least you own up to your dependency. Perfect logic created by you perfect indoctrination. Have you ever heard of the previous investment trap? That’s when somebody has so much invested in to something (like an idea) that even when they know its lame they keep on with it. Figuring that they have invested so much time and effort in it they will ride it through. No matter how much it cost or how stupid it makes them look. Like a guy who pays $500 to attend a seminar, knows from the first day that it sucks, but attends the next three days anyways, losing his time along with his money. You are firmly caught in this trap. So why not return to the US where you have a ton of cowish security? Again why are you here? You have never answered that. I suspect by your rational it is to whole up with other Gringos and make your retirement benefits stretch. Cows…. They say it takes all kinds – It really doesn’t, they just happen to all be here. And now they have found my Costa Rica. Is that Cuba calling????? No? Oh it Santiago… be right there in about 3 to 4 years.

How do you pick a winner out of a field of loser. Right now I am learning towards the actor guy who has not decalred.

[diego]

ssure,

First i have to ask if this is true? Next I suspect it is, and I do sympathise with you, but Dios mio, that is one of the best and most classic CR attorney stories I have ever heard (May I directly quote you? ) My kid just walked in and asked what was going on, why I was laughing out loud?! Only in CR…

[diego]

Dear Dependent David,

This is a love letter for lost souls. Governments lie, cheat and steal – from you and to you. Get over it, accept it and move on – you are delusional with your need to convince yourself you are not being had.

Here in CR I do fine with what very very (did I say “very”) little the government provides. Further more, do I care about our government trying to bring democracy to Iraq – Nope. But you seem happy to fund it. Do I care about strung out inner city youth dependent on entitlements – Naw. Do I depend on the Government for social security – it could all go belly up and it wouldn’t affect me one bit. Absolutely not. Lack of previous proper planning on the part of others – does not constitute an emergency on my part.

Now, do I help cloth the mentally handicap 38 year old who lives across the street from me – you bet. Do I pay for a heard of kids to go to the parque diversion – si senor. Am I a “Patronal” at my daughter public school – probably give the most ($350 a month donation). They call me don Diego and I have earned Tico respect. Do you have one Tico you can call a friend? I doubt it because you bleed gringo.

Point is you and your big government can have each other. You obviously believe in each other so it’s a perfect fit. Hope your Social Security check keeps comin in… and please go back to where big government is king, they need you there as it sounds like they have been nursing you for years. I am sure you know where all the government teats are So, have at em. Me, I’m already weaned. Don’t need Big Momy to suck off of or tell me what to do. Or Big brother to watch me.

Costa Rica is just fine the way it is, or are you one of those winey gringos constantly complaining how CR isn’t like back home? Why don’t you try driving that nice SUV you have parked all the time? Don’t want to get you self-definition dirty? You seem to define yourself by big government, so what are you doing here – complaining that the electricity goes out, complaining that the streets are not paved or espousing exactly what you want to change or fix. I think you need less time at the local expat hang out and more time with Ticos. You’d learn something about freedom from the group trap (Government) see: How I found Freedom in an Unfree World, Harry Browne) – required reading for cry baby expats. Do you wear Dockers and shave every day? Do your shirts have little crocodiles on them? Does your wife pick out you clothes for the day? Are you envious of the truly free?

Here is the deal. Take the money you pay in taxes and pay it forward. Give it directly to those in need. You remind me of the guy who goes to church and tosses a twenty in the basket and feels like he covered for the week. Personalize the gift, or is it easier for an institution to do it for you because you haven’t got time to be kind or because they have given you your paycheck your whole life. You remind me of an institution waiting to happen. You and I are exact opposites, I crave freedom and you want your illusions of protections provided by big Momy’s apron strings or Big brothers watchful eye. I am the antithesis of all that.

I yearn for the days when Costa Rica was all Maverick… Five more years and the cows (Davids of the world)will have it.

[diego]

Nice side step … Kind of like a politicain???

[diego]

You are a good egg Alfred, a bit misguided but none the less a good egg. Moooooooo….

Thanks for understanding me.. I like to provoke thought and examination of ourselves and others.

[diego]

“The buyout not only rescued Bush financially but gave him the collateral for an investment a few years later in the Texas Rangers baseball team that eventually made him a millionaire.”

I am not defending Bush as a president but what about the aforementioned quote from the article you cited and Haliburton Corp???

[diego]

He is absoultely one of the most brilliant business executives, not presidents – look how much he has made for the industrial military complex. Your response about running big bussiness does not require big intelect, extensive education or any particular talent is absurd. Tisk tisk to you Sprite..

[diego]

The top executives. Obviously you have no experience in big bussiness. If it was not for executive decisions regarding capital and management there would not be any planes for the flight crews to attend… Elementray my dear Watson

Love,
Sherlock

[diego]

David, I seriously doubt that you have spent even close to the amount of money and time I have in dealing with the CR legal system. Let alone living in this country with Ticos – not isolating myself amoung the Gringos. Do you even speak spanish? Get off your high horse. As a matter of fact I am willing to bet you have no experience regarding crimianal or civil suits in Costa Rica. Care to enlighten us – I thought not. Moooooove (as in cow) on to something you have some experience in, like how to buy a fancy car or build a luxuary home or that other Gringo stuff you seem to know about.

[diego]

According to my understanding. a simple way to relive a slander charge is to print a public retraction. But the “good” attorneys of Costa Rica would never want you to know its that easy.
