Yesterday, the David Yahoo Group had its evening meeting at Stella’s Marina in Pedregal. It had been about 3 months since my last visit to this restaurant.
I normally eat light in the evening, but I couldn’t pass up the fried shrimp special for $8. I didn’t take a photo, but it was a lot of [...]

Unfortunately, I dropped into the Yahoo of David site today and it is overflowing with bickering and belching about problems in Panama.I chose not to respond there, since it really won’t make much difference to some and I just don’t care to get in a long running argument. However, it did bring up a couple [...]

I came across the following post, in one of the Yahoo groups. The Yahoo groups are a source of good and bad information for me. Sometimes I find a person asking for information and I try to give it. Sometimes I find examples of selfishness and greed, but today, I found a very different kind [...]

There is a current thread running, in the Yahoo groups, saying that Copa is no longer giving discounts to gringos that are below the retirement age, even though they have the pensionado card.

The David Gringo Meeting will be today at 2:00 at Antojitos. It is interesting to me that the last meeting I went to there was one year ago tomorrow. I see that on that post, a year ago, that a person wrote and asked how to find one of the meetings.
I foolishly said to look [...]

Thursday not Wednesday is the day that the David Yahoo Gringo group meetings takes place. I know that, but Wednesday, I forgot. Maybe I knew that I needed a dry run to know where the El Fogon restaurant was.
I will tell you that Wednesday was a better day weather wise. It rained like a son-of-a-gun [...]

It was advertised that there was going to be the David Yahoo Gringo’s meeting today at El Fogon restaurant. It was to commence at 2:00 PM, but I guess the meeting must have been canceled and I didn’t get the message.
I did meet a nice couple and satisfied my socializing needs for the day and [...]

I remember, when I was a young boy living on a farm in Oklahoma, that the telephones that my folks used were on party lines. That meant that multiple people were on the same line and often some of the people that shared the line chose to listen to other’s calls.
At that time you couldn’t [...]

In my daily Internet travels, I visit several of the Yahoo groups that are related to Panama. The intent of most of these groups is to provide information to other people that may have a desire or interest or just a curiosity of what living in Panama is like.
In each of these groups, you can [...]

Last night was the Yahoo Gringos in David evening get together. Just like the last time it met, the group met at Panama Bill’s. The restaurant owners were there and it is obvious that they are interested in making sure the food and service are both good. I had the Barbeque Pork sandwich for $4.00. [...]
