No, Derfish was older than dirt even 20 years ago. This was a younger guy
Life in VM as only Dan could have told it.......enjoy;
Start of something great!
I recived an e-mail this morning..... Hi Timex, I am from the US and have been living in the DR with my Dominican girlfriend. Altagracia, for about 4 months now. Do you think the below (or parts of it) would be a worthwhile post? No hurry, I only get to the internet once or so per week. Dan...

Dan still lives here. He is always riding his bicycle around.
I did enjoy reading his real-life stories. Probably the most realistic description of living a typical Dominican daily life.Life in VM as only Dan could have told it.......enjoy;

Yes and no. Like the reason Jerry Seinfeld never revisited the show. Would never be able to stand up to the original. Dan's humor style was the best. "You would find toothbrushes everywhere, in the drain, mop buckets, on the stove... I'm sure the neighbors had some of our toothbrushes" 😂
I still occasionally drop into the country but now I am a liquor store department manager in Sacramento. Last time was in September to deal with the loose end of an abandoned Puerto Plata timeshare, which I successfully closed.
Glad to hear you’re doing well after what you went through.
Good question. Most likely he is still developing skyscrapers in Juan Dolio. LOL
I always think of CC and how much he loved the swedish meatballs at IKEA.
I sat with Alberto back in 2009 or 2010 at the old Field Of Dreams hotel and he had me partially convinced to invest in the cabaña La Roca but I was fortunate to be talked out of doing so by a friend. I know several guys that lost their azzes. You've got to hand it to him,he had a good schtick.
I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I had a large sum with him and needed it to complete a house purchase.
He had told me on numerous occasions I could get my money back at any time I wanted, and I suspect that's why he gave it back.
He was reluctant to do it, but I insisted.

You asked for your money back at the right time before things started going downhill for him. If you had waited maybe another year, you would have probably lost everything just like everybody else did.
Whatever happened to BronxBoy?
He, GaryEx and I met up for drinks at a buddy's restaurant across from the monument back in 2017. We had a few drinks and a good laugh.
I noticed he stopped posting/ moderating a few years ago. Hope he's doing well.
