Just when I was starting to doubt that I was the coolest person on the planet, I happened to peruse my old yearbooks. These yearbooks provide irrefutable evidence of my greatness. I made them out of printer paper and copied the front page of the real year books to my front page. I received celebrity signatures from Robert Plant and Ted "The Nuge ( Read more... )

Last night I freak-danced with a hot ginger who compared me to John Favreau, and her roommate called me Waldo way too often. Her roommate wasn't ready for my weirdness.

This weekend I went Puerto Jimenez with the Tico fam. The lowlands, baby! The last two days I have been in Corcovado National Park. The first day I hiked over 20 km. and saw a bunch of spider monkeys; spider spiders; spider macaws; two kawakis (not sure on that name), which are large black rodents with curly tails; a lil' baby snake; and hella ( Read more... )

So, I still don´t have a project yet to do here. A comparison involving ants or termites in different environments seems very difficult in my short time here because where ants or termites were problematic, the farmers have already sprayed pesticides.
