My motherf&#@king neighbor in Miami Shores...

When Isaida was visiting me in P.R. This is a long story and I won't really get into it yet cus' the matter's still fluid. Apparently the perp was the dude from across the street. Isaida notified the cops, the guy got arrested and spent 3 days in jail. Now he's back in the house. There's a case pending. I'm flying to Miami next week.
I just got Isaida a C2 Personal Taser. I doubt she'll have to use it.

cabron, mamabicho !

So I was heading home after a day of shooting a mntn bike race, riding the trail and eating about 5 pinchos in the town of FLORIDA in the North/Center of the island. Really, fucking town is called Florida, lots of loud motherfuckers in bikes and cars with sirens. I've no clue why these assholes are so loud...
ANyway, on my way home I get on this road, two lanes turn into one. Some asshole in a BMW tried to get in front of me, even if I stopped the fucker wouldnt have been able to make it. SOB drove around me, stopped his car and got out and said "mambicho, cabron me blokeaste" ! I put my hads up as if saying, calm down asshole. I'm trying to think of how I can get out of this if the prick pulls out a glock or something. Only way out was to ram his car and hit him...Anyway, bitch behinds me jumps out of her car and yells back "tu eres el animal cabron, que lindo conn una cerveza en la mano". other chick behind her did the same. dude got in his car and left in a hurry.
So did I. Ive been told I'm ungrateful for not thanking those fine ladies.

I dont think so....

Ricans !

Plena pa ti, plena pa mi.

I've been going to a few local spots to enjoy some kick ass plena music. Growing up in P.R. I was never into plena, bomba, salsa, merengue and definitely NOT into bachata. I'm still not into bachata and that's gonna hold no matter what. Tito Matos, musical director of Viento de Agua kicks major ass, funny, smart and a pretty awsome plenero. Here's a snap from last night on la calle Tanca en el Viejo San Juan. Isaida is blurred on the right wearing shorts.

Angels and short Ricans everywhere !

I've been meaning to write this for a while but I kept forgetting. It turns out I'm no longer the only Angel in the photo department or the shortest guy in the newsroom. There is a shooter who is shorter than me. AND two other shooters share my 1st name and a freelancer my last name. There are also a couple other Angels in the newspaper and companywide there are several more.
I'll try to make a pic w/those short fuckers.
Peace, a not so short anymore Angel

Cabron salsero

Man, I just got up from a nap. I'm dragging my feet. I now have Sundays and Mondays off. I actually picked those days myself. My new boss is really cool.

A few weeks ago I went to the Dia Nacional de la Salsa/National Salsa (music) Day. I'm not much of a salsero but I go anywhere there's good music, and fine jevitas. The show was in the Hiram Bithorn stadium. I think Hiram Bithorn was the first PRican major league ball player. Anyway, the HB is an old musty park. I sat in the sun drenched seats, lit up a cigar and just as I thought "all I need is a beer now" some dude selling beers walked by. I had about a 6 pack and had to take a leak when I ran into this dude w/his horns. I love self deprecating humor. This crazy cabron was funny. Called himself "el mas cabron". Good for you cabron.

Adios

El Yunque

I live about 5 minutes from El Yunque rain forest but I hadn't had time to visit. The forestry dept (which runs the park) actually changed the name of the forest to some shit I don't even know. Doesn't matter to me, I don't really follow colonial rule here. When I was little my folks used to take the entire family to a little stream in the forest. I have to find that place. I remember it as an incredibly beautiful spot.
Anyway, I took a little drive to a trail near the top of the road and walked a few miles. I'll go back with a real camera later on and maybe a nekked model.

Car fires

I've seen a couple of car fires on my way to and from work. I find that amusing since I hardly ever saw many of these during my years as a shooter in So/Fla.
Here are a couple of snaps I've made.
