I was sitting at the bar discussing the state of "Women's Rights In Pakistan" with "AZB",when a nice looking,welldressed gentleman came up to me and introduced himself.
He said that he loved reading my posts on DR1,that he had learned so many valuable facts about "life" in the DR from me,and he wanted to thank me personally for all my help! I was somewhat "confussed" as you might expect.Most of the people at the event had shunned AZB and me the entire night!!!The distinguished stranger went on to say that he had gone to university near where I was born in "West Virginia".Then I had it! I asked him who he thought I was? "Why you are "Hillbilly" aren't you? he questioned.(Sorry Luis!)
"No",I informed him,"I'm Cris Colon"!
The color drained from his face,as did his smile!
"You mean CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC?"he asked.,his voice little more than a wisper as he swallowed hard trying to regain his composure!
"Yes!" I informed him.
"AZB" later remarked that he had never seen anyone backtrack as fast as the Mysterious Stranger"!
So to help anyone avoid any further embarasment:
"Hillbilly" resembles former Surgeon General of the United States Edward
Coop,and I look like a cross between Burl Ives,and Wilfred Brimley,both on steroids!
By the way,AZB bought me a Club Soda! And we had a nice time conversing.We just stayed away from eachothers "Hot Button Issues" and everything was fine.I even invited him to spend the night in my hotel room,(Extra Bed!) but he said no,his goat was waiting up for him in Santiago! A "Slim,well educated goat,from a rice family.A goat with her own car,a "Model" goat with long straight hair,a university educated goat with a good job!!! So he made his excuses,took two "LaPelas" and headed out into the dark and foggy night!
