I was so stupid once, that I got my teeth whitened in Managua.In an office that was filled with great people and flies.It saved me a whopping 100 bucks , but the image of my jaw with Caligula tools was odd.Great country but the rolling brownouts since 2000 till now caused a security issue that was dangerous , worse than San Pedro Sula , so my life chooses are in question to this day.

I would not go near anything with Caligula on it, not even the play. You're lucky power didn't go out in the middle of your procedure. :ohmy:

going well. picking granite and feeling more stoned than a naked catholic, with out the joy of a satin cloth.

I've never been religious, don't know what a stoned Catholic would look like. I did have this Irish Catholic buddy in college and he was borderline conscious a few times. :laugh:

It went out three blocks from my hotel, and it was ugly for sure, and have been in marshall law before, its a power outage everyday in all of niraraga for the last 10 years for about 8 hours and the gov or power company never tells you when.Its mostly at 8 pm till 4 am but no on knows, so the time shifts every day.Its a great country just broke.

I really was on the teeth cleaning 100% , it was odd going to a bunkered house , good people all the was just shocking.

The lamps usually are a good clue what kind of establishment it is. If you've got a bare incandescent bulb tied to the ceiling by its wires, probably a casual joint, though the best noodles I've had in my life was in a shack with just such lighting, that and the dust filtered sunlight coming off the street. :lol:

Well okay I believe you but I was thinking..what? roman emperor?
Yes I'm confused....I need Pokey here with me. :laugh:

your right to question the judgement, my other wanted to slap the stupid out of me many times for that one.Some times its better to not seek medical tourism in a third world country, go figure.

It's not all bad. The Philippines or was it Indonesia offer some very good facilities with English speaking doctors trained in the US. Even without insurance, it could save you hundreds of thousands of dollars. It's en vogue now.

Hi Beachers.....Jag, just have them transfer one of those ECF payments to Glam, and I will send you a check. Wonder if they could do that?:confused:

If I hear back from Sarge or whomever, I'll suggest it. I would have asked for it if I knew you really wanted the supporting badge. :laugh:

I'll let you know.

Thank you....worth a try. And you are right....I have been reading about some Cental American and South American countries where the medical care is as good as here....USA trained doctors with a tenth of the cost here. Some of those countries, you pay a flat rate and then just go in when needed. Much more efficiently run than here.

Great for "elective" surgery, but I can't see myself being flown there on a wheeled bed....sigh.
