[quote=”juliab”]Success!! They fixed the system for the Garabito municipality. Like always, you just have to wait a bit:-)[/quote]
Give it a few weeks.It shall surely die(that’s biblispeak) I’ve been trying to pay employees seguros for three weeks.I suppose you cant expect their ‘puter system to work when they can’t even keep hand towels in the ER bathroom in the clini…..I mean bus stop for red cross.[quote=”elindermuller”][quote=”DavidCMurray”]My understanding is that the Costa Rican government has been mandating chlorination of community water supplies for the past two or three years. How recent is your information, maravilla?
[/quote]This is true, I am member of the local water board and we have also been ignoring this law for years. We test our water on a regular basis and it is the best water you can imagine. But still, chlorination is required by law and we will have to start soon.[/quote]
LOL. Can’t break any of those unenforceable CR laws that the dolts with badges don’t even know exist.
You’ll be so old by the time they get around to that chlorine won’t even exist any more.
I’m still waiting to quit receiving the silver coinage that was done away with 3 years ago. It’ll be a sad day. They’re far cheaper than arendelas and come in more sizes than the hardwarez carry ![quote=”maravilla”]dang, David! this is the second time we’re agreed on something. i agree wholeheartedly with Bloomie’s practice of taxing the crap out of cigarettes (they are $13.00 a pack in Manhattan) and regulating how much soda a person can drink in one sitting. obviously there is a serious problem about lack of common sense or even control over what some people will consume. these bad choices put a burden on everyone and one society as a whole. if they aren’t smart enough to not drink 64 oz of Coke with a pseudo-beef hamburger, then yes, someone should make that choice for them. (i’m ducking now!)[/quote]
Oh jolly new year. I suppose you think the police are there to protect you too. LOL.[quote=”Scott”]He certainly made a very stupid decision and he paid the ultimate price for that …
My immediate reaction was the horror of his family as they watched their father being mauled to death.
PS. But does this have to do with Costa Rica though? :lol:[/quote]
Well. It’s reminiscent of the taxistas when exiting arrivals with luggage at Juan Santameria. For those who don’t know; that’s an airport a little over an hour from Costa Rica.:wink:[quote=”DavidCMurray”]Doug, how will a three month vacation in Costa Rica give anyone comparative information about the resources of the CAJA system to which they will not have access? Other than in an emergency situation, no visitor can gain access to any CAJA service much less sample any number of them.

Pretend.:wink:[quote=”VictoriaLST”]Evidently the anti-venom is both hideously expensive and in very short supply due to short ‘shelf life’ in the refrigerator. Friends and I have been discussing putting a number of families together to buy it when it is available. Sounds like a plan.[/quote]
NONSENSE. It’s 2 vials for about $50. In The Empire, you get bit by a rattler, it’s over $1200 per vial(applied by a clueless moron).Guess where they get it ?
I buy 4 at a time, every six months, and used 2 vials one time on my……mastiff.Worked like a champ.
Thank you for the reminder. I’ll call Mario(vet) tomorrow and get a couple of fresh ones.[quote=”paula1″]Hi,
Our exterior wood windows and doors are weatherbeaten and faded. Can anyone recommend a particular product or methodology for finishing? Thet were originally stained dark brown using a Sur product.
Thanks

Go talk to guys at a ferreteria that Handles Lanco products.[quote=”maravilla”]it probably wasn’t GMO if they are not allowed to import it. if it was Bt corn you probably would’ve gotten sick.[/quote]
“es prohibido” like weed, crack, breaking into houses and shark fin chowder.
Thanks for reminding us the stoned arm of duh ley will keep us safe.Buy a pool table and a couple kegs of beer. Tell the “police” they are welcome to hang out while you’re away.
Make sure you pay the cable-satellite bill.Don’t worry about internet. Farcebook and Twatter can be posted to via cellular. The rest of the net doesn’t exist in a Tico’s world. I showed a “doctora” last night a new concept. Google translate Spani to Ingli. Hit the speaker button and OMFG The word get pronounced and comes out of the speakerz !!!! Increible!!!
So much for .phd’s. I guess it’s a worldwide issue.:roll:Just don’t flush any toilet paper(nothing wrong with the septic systems). You just wouldn’t want the tourists to see TP stuck on all of the rocks in all of the rivers where the poly pipe makes a direct shot to the closest stream. The turdz blend in fine with the muddy water and go unnoticed.
Shall we now talk about normally banned fuel additives ? Palm oil ?GMO animal feed ? Plastic bags ? Lecherias ? ICE and glycophosphate ?
😯Give them 4 hours or so in warm water before planting. Germination is close to 100%.I sold a mountain of them in miama The tree is hyped, much like the “Miracle” of Pau de arco which is nothing more than Cortez Negro and the “exotic” Bocote used in knife and gun handles which is nothing more than Laurel Negro.
I think once they find out what’s actually required to set up shop and become an employer here they’d run as fast as they could.The rights of employees is just a fraction of it.
OTOH if You’re Intel, HP, Boston Medical etc, they’ll bring you in and drive you around in Lauras Audis and hand you an honorary pass like they did for Steve Case(AOL), who wisely halted his 800 million dollar plan here.[quote=”MMag”]I work in the cruise ship industry. I work a number of months and then get 4 months off to travel the world. I am planning to arrive in Costa Rica in February.
My main goal is to find a wonderful woman. NO, this is not a sex vacation. I have many CF friends on cruise ships and have been exposed to some advantages to marrying the Costa Rica female.
I’m 42 and attractive. I have lived in Mexico and South Africa for a year at a time. I”m not new to the expat thing.
I guess my main question would be what location should I go to in hopes of finding a good woman that I might we able to some day marry?
Are certain areas better for that? I want to stay away from the sex tourism areas, but I imagine there could be some geographical overlap.
Anyway, I appreciate any help you can provide.[/quote]
Don’t be swooned by these beautiful young guapas. Find a gal your age. The little guapas often look like they need to be in a livestock auction by age 30 :shock::lol:
