El Chiricano Webzine
Mar 17th, 2007 by Don Ray
While I was looking at web sources this morning that have links to Chiriquí Chatter, I found a new site that is oriented to Chiriquí and with a lot of specific information to David. It is called El Chiricano Webzine. It is in Spanish so if you are Spanish challenged, as I am, you my want to use one of the web translators. I use the FireFox add-on described HERE.
The Chiriquí Chatter link from El Chiricano Webzine was due to its using one of my photos of the Post Office remodeling that is going on and gave credit for the photo to Chiriquí Chatter. If you live in the David area this will probably be a site to check in on to get more of a Panamanian’s perspective of what is happening in Chiriquí. I added it to the Chiriquí Chatter Link List.
I use my yahoo web translator to English I will have to try firefox see which works best. It seems to me that the yahoo translator only works on a few web pages, I tried it on the El Chiricano worked fine. Hey I got a comment about the front page, glad to see some of the locals are upset with the NOISE from those dudes that drive by in there trucks with the huge MEGA watt speakers blasting up and down the streets, thats way out of line!
Hi SE. Yes, I thought that was interesting to see also.
Those “huge” speakers were pipsqueaks compared to what I witnessed on the island of Monsterrat (before it blow up). A producer for the Beatles opened AIR studios there in the 1970s, and left behind lots of equipment when his facility closed. The locals were able to wire together so many speakers that they carried them around on trailer trucks as they “played.” If you lived anywhere on the island, you didn’t need a radio for music.
