If you are wondering where I have been the last week, I have been on charter. The charter experience is not something that is very easy to explain but I will do my best. We had up to eight real guests and up to thirteen supplementary ladies of the evening on board. A typical day […]
Caveat,I like the facebook tag name feature. Now I can not simply tell Uncle Phil and El Fuerte to read my blog. A tag is the best I can do. Doing this rescinds my previous claim that I was sick of Facebook butchering my RSS. I am on the verge of paying for a new […]
Phantom. to disappear without notice from a party; to go ‘phantom Phantoming is the largely misunderstood art of leaving a social gathering without saying goodbye.
