Today I did nothing.
And I did it better than anyone else.
I am pretty sure of that.
But I heard a rumor that my last easy day was yesterday.
Gonna have a 🥃
To celebrate another day of THE EASY LIFE

Here's one - finally have time to write wrapping up a slow Easter weekend....
If you have ever heard of the Moto-Tipo-San guy.... has that ugly house near Gasping Hernandez...
Sells all the motos and imports those orange taxis.....propane powered ones....
He's quite famous and quite a lot rich.....
So one weekend he and his pals are out dirt biking.... rios, hills, mud..... u name it !
Parched & hungry they stop for lunch at Playa Grande Beach.... on their way home
So dirty, so scruffy, they attracted A LOT of attention!
But NONE from the waiters..... n'er do wells..... who'd serve these bums!!??
Some young server gets thrown at them.... a kid... like a joke almost
They eat & drink their fill.... as you imagine..... hungry/thirsty big shots
BUT - OH NO!!!
the bill comes - they all pat their pockets and can't scrounge enuff dough re mi.....
NOW, the big shots waiters step up - ready to pound these chumps.... no good ruffians
Stiffing the kid waiter......
The Kid says - No !
They promise to come back and pay me.....
After a lot of wrangling, they are allowed to leave on the dirty 'dirt' bikes....
Couple of days later - A Range Rover pulls in.... Chofer, blinged up passenger....The Works
The big shot waiters bow & scrape..... itching to serve The Man....
Nope he fingers The Kid..... I'll take him.
Again - the fellow eats & drinks his fill.....
Asks for the bill - and pays - no tip
Then he asks for the bill from the weekend......
Pays again - again no tip....
Big sh!t/shot waiters are watching and squirm a bit - stiffing the kid again
Mr Bling puts his arm around The Kid and walks him to the parking lot......
Brand New Moto waiting for him - The Tip !!!
You can imagine the faces all around.......
Happy Ending !!
True Story !!!

Those waiters there... nice guys... but quite 'aware', if you get my drift
Snobs?
Not really....but they 'know'.....
They missed this one - BIG TIME!!!

Sometimes You Have to Wait for It
So, thanks to LK I am hooking up to Edenorte to charge my batteries.
My planta is 11-12 yrs old and 'acting up'.....
Better to get as better fix.
This ain't cheap especially in my case where I am a loong way for the transformer.
80,000 pesos of wire long away.
I try to transfer the deposit to the electrician... from my ScotiaBank
Won't go thru ....
So I get a cashier's check - certified check from the bank - 350 pesos
Done !!
My mistake might have been that I said 'checking' account instead of 'savings'
He confirms this
Easy ! I'll edit his payment profile
Nope!
TWICE y'day it gave me error messages...... cannot be done... call the bank
Holiday Saturday - fat chance
Sooo, Sunday morning coffee - I try again....
POOF!!
Success !!
Good things come to those who wait..... I have heard
Never having been a waiter or even a bus boy ..... I'm not sure
But , in this country, all bets are off
If at first you don't succeed...... don't give up!!!
