  1. If we all close our eyes and hope really hard, maybe all web apps will change "are you sure you want to delete this?" to an Undo link.
  2. It took a LA Times article to help me actually understand the Honduran coup. I <3 historical context. Check it out: http://bit.ly/Hondur
  3. Now in Suchitoto, where zip-lining awes Lake Suchitlan is $3. Your 2-min debrief on the new(-ish) Obama of El Salvador: http://bit.ly/ElSalv
  4. Swam Lake Nicaragua, boated thru volcanic islands, & deposed a president. And by "deposed" I mean "ate" and by "president" I mean "hot dog".
  5. There's something about this Honduras news article flanked by Banana Republic banner ads that punches my soul.
  6. FYI: I am not in Honduras right now, & I'm not going. Am in Costa Rica, headed north to Nicaragua. But damn, I miss all the cool coups.
  7. Nothing like a local coup to spark parental imaginations. Honduras dangers I'm told to avoid: riots, hurricanes, chartered boat kidnappings.
  8. YESTERDAY: Bocas Del Toro, Panama TODAY: Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica DYK? Caribbean surfer town cultures vary widely. I <3 Mojito Anthropology.
  9. Glued to news about Iran's disputed election. I hope Al Gore wins.

  14. Guayaquil, Ecuador's largest city: Sacagawea $ coins aplenty +5; hot, humid & dusty -10; 9 cent croissants +10; Feels like New York -10, +15
  15. Yesterday I had an actual monkey on my back. Who had an actual monkey on HIS back. Who struck me as carrying a metaphorically heavy burden.
  16. My hotel room toilet won't flush. Asked phrase book the term for the broken handle lever. Book says it's "off the chain." Wrong phrase book.
  17. @cleversimon I can see it now: "Meet my bodyguards: Rightie [kisses right bicep], And [kisses left one]." Other person: "Huh?"
  18. Peru Awesomeness #23: Buses that replaced their horn w/the R2-D2 chirp. (Yeah, I thought they were BIOS POST Error codes at first, too.)
  19. A new, quick blog post about two folks, Clay and Faith, and why projects tend to take longer than we expect: http://bit.ly/aks80
  20. When I type "the," English's 4th most frequent word, Openoffice suggests "themselves," the 1,695th most frequent word. I hope they punch the
