Got into Bogota last night. I'm staying in about as nice of a neighborhood as I've ever seen. Apparently the Attorney General lives across the street, and the former President lives down the block. More details later.
Try not to get kidnapped!
I'm not exactly worth much.
Dee-Nee could probably come up with about $200 to secure your release
Ummm....can you find me something if I send you some cash?
You'll recieve a phone call at midnight. Follow the man's instructions to a tee, get the package, and get it through customs. There will be a decent reward for you if you pull this off.
Como es la cocina de Colombia? Estas comiendo?

I've tried cocaine, and I don't have any urge to do it again...
I would love to get my hands on some raw coca leaves though. Apparently they can be "chewed" like tobacco for a solid little buzz.
Chewing on leaves for a slight buzz, that sounds awesome. They have this thing called Southern Comfort, please try it one day...

Well, I enjoy chewing on tobacco leaves for a nicotine buzz, so why not chew on coca leaves for a different kind of buzz? It's obviously not near as potent as refined cocaine, but it's supposed to be roughly tantamount to a cup of strong coffee.
Southern Comfort is disgusting shit... I'll stick with Wild Turkey, thanks.
Actually, SoCo is much better. Science and stuff...

So do you mix the Wild Turkey and SoCo together?
Got back yesterday. Awesome trip. Spent the majority of my time in Bogota, staying in probably its nicest neighborhood (Rosales). Nice city, lots of green space, lots of parks, a TON of malls, and lots of military personnel walking around with machine guns. Also spent time in small towns outside of Bogota, and some time in the Colombian islands of San Andres and Providencia.
Spent the 4th of July at a fair at the US Embassy, which I believe is the 2nd biggest embassy that we have abroad (after Egypt). It was basically a carnival with several thousand people in attendance, including military and Colombian elites, many of whom were total cunts. For example, when trying to find the entrance, one lady asked "Where did your driver drop you off?" in a smug tone. Another lady, after my ladyfriend and I waited in line for 20 minutes for some free food, stepped in front of us and asked the vendor for something. He mentioned that she needed to wait in line and she then said, "I don't wait in line" and asked another worker, who promptly gave it to her. Fuck you, elite-types. My girlfriend proceeded to yell "Shame on you!" at the lady, and afterwards we followed her around for about fifteen minutes saying things like "What a bitchy thing to do." I also called her a "filthy cunt," but may have been out of earshot. Regardless, I believe this makes me the first Dee-Neer to call someone a filthy cunt at a US embassy.
I would put even money that MikeD did that first...
I got my hopes up thinking that this was the estoy on mexico thread....at least one ISU alum can fkn do things right.
What exactly did I do wrong?
well, for one, you didn't bitch slap the filthy cunt right in her goddamn mouth.
