San Jose General Reports

[Lil Bear]

This is my first trip in CR. This time also mark my first year as a monger. I started in DR last year in August 2014, then followed with Medellin in October 2014, Cartagena, Barranquilla, and Santa Marta in December 2014, Medellin and Barranquilla again in May 2015 and now CR in August 2015. This has been a truly fantastic year! As always my reports are long so I warn you guys to stop reading if you don't like reading and skip it all.

The flight.

I booked my flight through google flights https://www.google.com/flights/ and paid about $480 purchased a month in advance for a round trip from JFK / NYC to San Jose with a stop in Fort Lauderdale. I got Jet blue and this airline rocks with great service, laptop computers to use at JFK, spacious plane, wifi on plane, and free movies / entertainment and lots of free chips, cookies and soda / water. On Spirit airline they give you shit and those planes are tiny.

Day 1 Tuesday Arrival in San Jose, the fun begins.

ATM / Exchange.

I arrived at 11 am in San Jose. I found an ATM of Nova Scotia bank. With my Capital one card https://home.capitalone360.com/ Igot 100000 colones or 200 USD at a 526 colones per dollar including 1500 colones ATM fee or 3 USD. I did not get charge any fees from Capital one, same no fees as in the DR and Colombia.

I have to give you props for this report. I'm going to CR in November and I'm taking a friend who has never been there. The information provided will be really helpful for me and showing him around for a good time. Thanks Cerebro.

Seems there's a ton more info to support the rat theory.

Dave wasn't arrested entering the country, he was arrested leaving. This explains a lot. So does this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeaU-eO8WDo.

In the video, Dave was being led out of the departures desk. He was being led out by OIJ agents. OIJ is the CR equiv of FBI. These two pieces of info confirm it was an inside job.

First, had Dave been wanted by the OIJ prior to his arriving, his passport would have flagged it when he entered the country, and he would have been detained then, not over a week later when he was leaving.

Second, he was being led away by the OIJ. The OIJ doesn't work the airport. They were there for him, and him only. They waited until he arrived at the desk, then arrested him. Meaning they were told when he would be there, and what his real name was.

Right now, in a dark cell in Costa Rica, Dave's wondering who put the knife in his back, if he doesn't already know.

Actually, he got thrown out of that country a year or two ago.

The shit Cubadave is facing is fucking serious. He made tons of CR YouTube videos, posted tons of photos of CR hookers in facebook and his sites and was selling CR ebooks. The CR authorities can screw him easily because there is tons of evidence on the web proving the point he was promoting sex tourism, talking about how great is CR for P4P, and his video tips and videos with girls, photos, articles, hotel, MP recommendations, etc etc. Too bad he is going to be an scapegoat. It is sad that a guy that was very helpful to a lot of people in this board is now screwed with his own shit.

Sorry for your troubles Dave. I bet your home base in DR looks pretty appealing right now.http://todaycostarica.com/american-a...g-sex-tourism/

Anonymous tip is a polite way to say he was ratted out by someone he thought was a friend. This has Dan the Rat written all over it. Dan also hosts and controls Dave's entire online presence. Website, facebook, all of it. Dave's a tech-tard.

This 'promoting sex tourism' law is something you'd expect from Iran or North Korea. It's legal to buy sex, legal to sell sex, but illegal to talk about buying sex.

Yeah, I agree, the videos and all of it was a bit much. Doesn't change the hypocrisy of it.

[Dgfd]

His Facebook, Youtube and personal pages are all down.

But his Linkedin "CubaDave" page is still up so there's that.

Neither LaNacion or ElDiario picked it up that I saw and usually they are all over gringos / sex trade stuff.

My pet peeve about CR used to be that big photo billboard that was the first thing you saw when you exited customs, titled something like "Stop! If you are to molest minors you are going to jail" in English with a gringo face. That was there for years but finally gone or moved and I haven't seen it.

Shit, in all the years I've lived in CR or visited constantly, a long time, the only gringo I saw get pinched for this shit was a Canadian who was playing the wrong game in Quepos maybe 15 years ago. He got wacked. I'll bet he is still in jail or dead. (Dave be careful, they ain't crazy about us in their shit houses).

On the other hand, I've read about dozens of ticos getting pinched for that shit. And those are only the ones who got pinched--usually only because she got pg. I posted about that in days gone by when our fun wasn't so centralized and organized and was spread out all over in the hoods often in private homes about too many times seeing the too young ones and ticos, at least them ticos--hahaha, didn't think twice about it.

Shit the mayor of Quepos got pinched about 2 years ago for making videos of legal and non legal girls. Big media splash. Removed from office. Guess what? Never went to trial and about a month ago, restored to office. Jesus Christ. And they pinch Dave for this lame shit? Something stinks.

Article said it was the first time anyone has been prosecuted for this statutory violation and I believe that. You want us to investigate what? Hahaha. More and more I am thinking I know exactly who had the smarts to anonymously (as the article said--so it wasn't one of the local goody-goody 2 shoes groups running around in SJ protecting their poor kin) anonymously maneuver to get OIJ the data and the motivation they needed to pinch him.

I'm positive he reads this board. I am also positive he is one of the moderators on another dedicated to CR board. A snake in the grass that a company that makes false passports from overseas just blew the whistle on him (can you imagine that?) for a kinky reason. They even posted his foto. Yep, that's the little weasel.

Anyway, I bet Dave knows who did it and agrees with me.

Member Ipanema's link didn't work for me so try this one. If not go to Qcostrica or Todaycostarica, same great publisher and person, in fact one of us from many moons ago. Not sure he knew who the arrestee was if OIJ didn't name him, but it sure looks like the controversial Dave named by Ipenema, at least from behind, and the age is right on. If it is indeed him, he pissed off the wrong person because what he's charged with, there are at least a dozen other gringos doing the exact same thing for decades longer then him, some even own bars and hotels, hahaha, m-m-m-m-m three guesses, the fist two don't count, hahahaha. That or one of the devious "others" operating in SJ planted the seed, and I can think of one guy who fits that bill to a tee. He played the system and had a rival gringo operator deported for expired visa reasons. That victim wrote a lot it and squarely pointed the finger.

Regardless, kind of a shitty pinch but when CR gets lathered up about something, one can be in it for the long haul. What's that ocean environmentalist name, Paul Watson? CR has an Interpol arrest warrant for him after one of his ships jet sprayed heavy duty water on an illegal fishing boat and I think bumped it or something causing minor damage within CR's 20 miles. President Chinchilla wouldn't revoke it, nor will current Prez Solis after many world environmental leaders sought relief from them.

I never met Dave but his reputation is that he can rub people the wrong way--I know he got barred out of a couple of our joints in SJ. Still, WTF--videos on YouTube or Facebook posts talking about the open and notorious trick trade in SJ is fucked, especially when the stuff I saw from him was kind of elementary that would appeal only to guys who'd never been to CR, and stale at that.

Sorry for your troubles Dave. I bet your home base in DR looks pretty appealing right now.

The 9 A also makes short of circle or intersects this tiny park (Parque de LOS mercaditos).

Dickhead,

This message was for WT69 to show that Calle 9 A exist and is located within the parque LOS mercaditos, which is behind the club Pantera Rosa complex, http://www.panoramio.com/photo/69907539.

That location of the parque mercaditos and 9 A is where to find Pension Erotica#3 at Calle 9 A (between calle 9 & 11) and between Avenida 14 and 16 , Barrio Soleda or Barrio Chino. That was one of my favorite pensions besides Bar Pension 69 https://pension69cr.wordpress.com/ On Avenida 10 (San Martin) entre calle 13 & 11 across from Ferreteria Jimenez, Barrio Soledad. Clean places, some good girl selections and both pensions have a bathroom in theirs room. Pension 69 has a bar to hang out with the girls or just drink.

I am glad you guys enjoy the report. Thank you John Gault for the Zinc tips for more leche and prostate health.

Yes, awesome report. This guy will make a fine Dickhead some day, what with avoiding cabs, wearing sneakers so as to be prepared to run, and realizing that the Del Rey is just the same hos for more money with more hassle. Taking the bus from the airport was a nice touch. I always have too much luggage to do that since I live on the road.

Very nicely done, Cerebro.

To answer Cerebro's question 25 MG of zinc is great for the male reproductive organ, and prostate gland.
