Mr Gogo in the Dominican Republic

[GrownMan1]

I was supposed to leave on Monday at 7 o'clock however waiting on my friend we miss our flight and it cost me an extra $150 dollars. Monday to the following week Wednesday Dec 7-16. That was the game plan. However Mr E came to town and I paid $200 for an extension to the following Monday.

Before leaving to the airport I smoke a fat one. I was so high I could not find my passport once I entered the airport. I search for about 30 minutes going through all my bags. I jumped on the phone to call my partner who had just dropped me off. Damn voicemail. After 30 minutes I found my passport but now is not reading at the airport. They take me to the desk give me my tickets and I go wait in this long ass line. I'm still high as f* After 20 minutes of waiting in the line I realized I don't have my cell phone. I jumped out of line and ran back up to the Delta station. 15 minutes with them no one found my phone. I looked by the computer when I first entered and there was my phone. I went and got back in line after about 15 minutes I noticed I didn't have my tickets. Damn had them in my back pocket they must have fell out. I ask a guy to please hold my place while I go and get New tickets. The agent at Delta was wondering what the hell was I still there when I got my tickets almost an hour ago. They reissue me to New tickets and I ran to the line to see the one person who was holding my spot in the line just made it past customs ticket and passport check. Damn I have to get back in this line. The line took another 30 minutes I know I'm running late. I'm in line to get my passport stamped and I hear they're calling my flight over the intercom. I tell the custom agent and she pulled me to the front. Make it through customs run to my departure gate. Once I arrive to my departure gate he asked me do I only have one bag. Damn where the hell is my other bag. It's boarding time. I must have left it at the passport checkpoint. The Delta agents and I ran back to the check point.

Security has my bag do you want me to identify the contents inside. This fat ass custom agent takes her time checking down my bag for contraband or drugs. Then I had to sign a release form. Even after I identified all the continents in my bag. I run back to the gate what the Delta agent. Understand I am in Gator boots Levis polo shirt and a cowboy hat. I'm sweating all over my body. I am completely exhausted. I gave the Delta agent a a $15 tip. He got me through several checkpoints and ran with me the whole time. We got up to my gate and they had just shut the gate door and the plane was slowly moving off. Fuc I miss my flight by seconds. The Delta agent was very sympathetic. He even told me that if it wasn't someone on standby they would have waited a little longer. He takes me to the department to arrange a later flight. I was informed I had to pay $200 change of flight fee and $557 change of fare fee. I argue my point that it was all security fault. They said will waive the change-up ticket fee however I wouldn't have to pay the difference in fare. $557. I've been in this situation before and I know what to say. I asked her how long will I have to stay to the point where there's no difference in fare fee. She said Thursday Christmas Eve will be the quickest. It was Monday. I told her to run it.

Ok my time has got extended three extra days. At least it's costing me no money. Went back to Boca Chica I had a lot of frustration to get out of me. I'm on a roll with two girls at the same time so I got a happy hour special. See attached. 1000 pesos and the chicas went to work on me. No bullShiting. They both at the same time suck my nipples and gave a decent BBBJ. I slept for 5 hours after they left. I have no problem sharing the number. I told them whenever I come to town bring another friend or they can come together. As long as the Chica looks similar to them slender waist nice ass.

On Thursday I was well prepared for the airport this time. It's Christmas eve and I am ready to go. I get to the airport at 1:00 my flight 3:00. However, it's not letting me check in. It's a 2:00 hours delay. I go to the desk and explain to me that is raining cats and dogs in Atlanta and I will be missing my connecting flight. She said hey can fly me into New York tonight and fly to my destination the following morning. Oh hell no! I am NOT flying to New York just to spend the night in the airport. I will leave here tomorrow at the same time. I am in tropical weather here. I don't even have a long sleeve on. What the hell do I look like flying into New York. So its back to Boca Chica. Call of my Haitian supplier and got me a quarter ounce and some of that Venezuela rum. Then I called up my number one Amiga and we burn the hotel room down. Then I went to her house where she cook dinner for me. Feliz Navidad.

[Mr Gogo]

First, Happy new year to all. Every year just seems to keep getting better. 2015 saw Cuba three times and the DR four times. Great times had by all. 2016 I'm starting out with an island hop for February. I've been doing some serious research on the La Romana / Bayahibe / Higuey area (Thanks Camaro and others) so I will start there and depending on how that goes I will either fall back to Sosua or SD. SD and Santiago are in a tie for my future home but I've got to at least pay the La Romana are a look see.

Good to see Grownman, Sabor, Mr E, Chief Justice, WRX, BrotherP and others in 2015, hopefully we will connect again soon.

[Mr Gogo]

Obama has just lifted the law that forbids families to pay ransom for kidnapped relatives. Some say this will put a price on all Americans on foreign soil. I'm not sure but time will tell. Heads up.

There are by the way an interesting discussion; Maurizio Ferraris & Markus Gabril; The end Of Postmodernism-discussion.

Of course; when being scammed it is easy to jump to the idiot-conlusion!

I've been scammed and that happens to everyone, but I have also scored some Stunners, being in the game has its price, both to the selfesteem and $-wise!

These girls are not stupid! Their reality is what would be a nightmare to us; and especially me; I'm a filosofic person, creative, I would crack without my vast sparetime!

They have none! Awake hours are working hours. For life! So being a prosti, that can change that for a while.

They do not "suffer", but their rationality is very different from mine; I want a memorable sexsession and seldom repeat; I want her to give her best; then I want another "most sexi latina babe".

Of course, I finally end up being scammed, its a statistical law! Im the one who are stupid. I could had repeated and created a good relationship, but Hybris took over; again and again!

I think, not only trying, but imaging their world, getting to know them, being a trusted friend, that would be interesting; I have a little experience of that, but the common behaviour is of course not to mention to much to the "other side", so its difficult to get into the Girl World.

In many ways their lifes are rich; they have a family; abuelos, tios, nietos, hermanos, primos; they all come together and have a nice time; I explained that to my X; she understood that not all is that bad in Latinamerica!

The girl wants to be a good family-member; that is her rationality! But there are of course many that take the chance to rob a extranjero whenever they fell like, and often under the influence of drugs!

If you had been drinking and are a little drunk, relaxed by her erotic company; how difficult is it to rob a guy?

Excellent post. A lot of the problems we read about stem from guys going in with the attitude: " I am a tough businessman and nobody takes advantage of me. I am dealing with business women who are running a business, and I drive a hard bargain. " This posture tends to cause problems when the woman tries to renege on what the guy thinks is a binding contract.

And yet we should not really be surprised, as it is commonplace for businesses in the developed countries, even multinational corporations, to engage in all kinds of bait-and-switch tactics, false advertising and so on. Just think, for example of the billions that have had to be repaid to consumers in the UK by banks over so-called "mis-selling" (what you or I would call fraudulent sales) of insurance products, or the normal practices of any automobile dealership in North America.

The truth is that they are not businesswomen and it is difficult to get inside their heads on a new acquaintance, especially if your Spanish is not good.

That's a bit presumptive don't you think? You should never assume what a person will or won't do in a challenging situatuon. You never know if there's a crooked cop in the background or a domincan chulo forcing her to run scams on gringos. I also get a kick out of mongers who proclaim that these women are idiots because they aren't interested in certain subjects. Perhaps she need to buy leche? Pay her rent, support an abusive chulo or extended family? So discussing history or getting into a deep philosophical discussion is the furthest thing from her mind ?

Treat everyone fairly and with respect to limit your chances of getting scammed and always keep your guard up.

As far as Sosua getting shut down.

Sousa will be there until someone with deeps pockets decide to redevelop the place. My hunch is DR as a mongering destination will remain as is until there is real socioeconomic opportunities for tbe lower classes. In the grand scheme our dollars account for a tiny fraction of their economy.

Black beards contest 2015.

[Mr Gogo]

April 26 2015.

Currently in Santiago, thanks Camaro for a very detailed report. Damn dude you are an asset that's under appreciated.

Staying at a hotel near the monument. Currently at Perta del sol with Mr E and his girl and guess what? They are cool. Getting ready to hit Club Pure. It's slow for a Sunday night but I'm all in. Nothing but fine light-skinned girls here, where is the chocolate?

A dude walked in with two fine girls but he hasn't touched either one. Me and E are checking them out trying to get a tell. I thought they were working till he bought them wine and food, what kind of pimp is this? Then the girls were drinking water with wine which was strange to me. Damn she just stared me down, maybe she is in play. I'm not sweating any chicas tonight so she got to give me another green light. I'm not really trying to fuck but that can change with the right attitude. Let me put this phone down and pay attention.

30 minutes later;

Damn I might have fucked up. As we were leaving the girls looked at me like "please don't go", oh well. We hit "Pure"night club, nice club but empty. We went to the other club (Tabu) , it was packed. Santiago is weird two clubs the same and 200 feet apart and one is jam packed and the other has two people.

Let me backtrack; Earlier Mr E pulled one of his SD routines where he thinks he knows where he is going but 30 minutes later we are still lost.

Okay at club Tabu open till 6 am. They are going to test me but I like that shit. My flight out of STI is at 9 am, fuck sleep I'm on vacation. I'm rolling the dice tonight lets see what happens, seven or eleven, or snake eyes. If I crap out so what at least I took my roll. On the DL (down low) tip I think Mr E girl has some friends but she's playing it close. Shh!

Aw shit, Grownman they got a girl in here with those school teacher glasses on and you know how that shit drive me crazy,(remember Cuba Takoa night club? Only behind a hairy pussy es mas importante, Damn ISG yall got me figured out LOL. I got my money on Gogo any bets? I know me you don't just think you do, I can be charming when need be. This is actual time reporting, damn I wish I had some gum. I'm three Cuba libres in and feeling good. Okay, the school teacher girl is off limits her boyfriend just came back from the bathroom, her loss. Girl you just missed out on the best thing that was ever going to happen to you (Jerome voice).

Okay a Dominican dude just said wait, the couples will leave then it will be single girls. It's 1:18 am and you know I got my new 2 o'clock rule. Time is ticking, tick tock. Two girls quoted my friend 100 for the going rate.

Okay it looks like Gogo is taking a " L" in Santiago tonight. Sometimes It's like that for you newbies, but the night ain't over yet.

It's over! Santiago is for you if you have a girl. Dominican boys here have money to complete with American dudes and the girls are about status and money. Gogo crapped out.

Its 3;30 am at Passions Santiago, girls get naked, free admission. Many Dominican dudes but fine girls stripping. Mr E wife up in the hotel room but I'm hanging with a brother I met on the metro bus. Girls in this MF is pushing up on Dominican dudes and they act like they don't want them, can't get this shit. Santiago is a ball of confusion, I gave up fucking.

Damn its so late and we just left Passions after the Dominican dudes snachet up all the girls and kicked us out, I'm scared to look at my phone clock.

Damn it's 5:33 am and we pull up to the hotel and would you believe my school teacher just jumped into a taxi in front of the hotel sola with the boyfriend walking back into the club WTF Santiago has yet to make sense to me.

I'm now at the airport hungover, red eyed, not shaved and my clothes ain't even coordinated, but I developed some great memories for the "Old folks home". The funny part is that there are 3 guys at the airport now that caught the flight coming to the DR, and they look worse than me LOL. That's why we love the DR.

P.S. I'm on the plane and this fine Domincana sitting next to me has taken 9 pictures of herself with her phone, social media and conceited tricks LOL.

[Mr Gogo]

Just finished having a great time in Sosua. Shoutout to Monger69, Mr E, Shockman and a few other guys from this board for sharing some good times with me.

Sosua still has adventure and surprises to keep you coming back. The highlights were my 32 yo hairy MILF who fucked me great for the first two nights of my trip. Also Monger69 party was fun. Staying in "New Paradise" was also sweet.

Last night Me and Mr E left Ramonas and this guy was completely drunk at Domino bar and he kept sitting on the ground but wouldn't get up or let anyone help him get up. One of the girls behind the bar goes and grabs the mop bucket from the corner that was full of dirty water. She goes over and it was like a tidal wave hit this guy. His reaction was priceless as it took him 5 seconds to figure out that it was mop water and he started spitting out water and shaking. Now the previously drunk guy is fully alert in the street cursing with dirty mop water dripping off him. All he could say was " you threw the mop water on me puta? Me and E laughed all the way to Rumbas.

The low points were that Classicos gets crowded and hot after midnight, best to just hang out below at Merengue. My beloved Four Roses was empty every time I passed going to Ramonas. The area by Passions looked deserted and abandoned. City lights had only a couple guys there each night I went, don't know how much longer before they close.

Last night decided to head home about 2 am (Hanging with Mr E wears you out watching the constant battles he has with chicas). Got in the room and turned on the television and porn came on. Five minutes later I was on the prowl to snatch something walking past New Paradise, I felt like a criminal about to do a crime. As I'm outside I'm looking up and down the empty street but it's a guy across the street in front of New Garden also doing the same thing as me; late night stalking LOL. I try to get the advantage by walking up to the ice cream spot on the corner.

Now the late night games begin. One Chica asked if I wanted a massage. I said who the fuck wants a massage at 3 am. I told her to say she wants to sleep with me, fuck me, suck me, maybe even offer to iron my clothes but leave that lame ass massage hustle away from me and be real at 3 am. The next girl parked her motochoncho walked up to me and said it just ran out of gas and could I help her. What a coincidence that you ran out of gas 5 feet from the only other person around? The next girl was our girl Tomjackin. She was walking down the street and I was happy on the inside because I know this girl wouldn't play games with me. I said " Come and spend the night with me and I will give you 1500 pesos in the morning". She said she needed 3000. That fucked me up as I was explaining that we have history and I recommended her to my boys to promote her skill set. She said she would come with me for 2000 minimum. As she walked back to Pedro Clisante I peeked over at my competition standing in front of NG and motochoncho girl had rode her bike down to him and was giving him the same sob story she gave me. Fuck chasing pussy after 2 am is my new rule.

MIAMI CNN - Inside a plane at Miami International Airport, baggage handlers are going on a shopping spree with passengers' bags.

What they don't know is that they are being recorded on a hidden camera. The Miami-Dade Police Department set up the camera as part of an ongoing police investigation into luggage thefts by the very airport workers who are supposed to get bags safely onto planes.

"It's a problem we all face," said police LT. Pete Estis. "We will continue to be proactive until we can see that the claims of pilfering through luggage will actually decrease. ".

And these insider thefts just don't happen in Miami. A CNN analysis of passenger property loss claims filed with the TSA from 2010 to 2014 shows 30,621 claims of missing valuables, mostly packed in checked luggage. The rest occurred at security checkpoints. Total property loss claimed: $2. 5 million.

John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York topped the list of airports with the most claims of thefts from luggage, followed by LOS Angeles International, Orlando International and Miami International, according to the data.

The problem has been so serious at JFK that in 2013, El Al Airlines set up a hidden camera in a baggage hold. The camera showed baggage handlers stealing items on flights bound for Israel, including a $5,000 Seiko watch, iPhones, an iPad, cameras, gold rings and cash. Six of those arrested pleaded guilty to possession of stolen property or petty larceny and the seventh suspect's case was sealed, according to the Queens District Attorney's Office.

The high-profile case, though, didn't stop the thefts. Two more baggage handlers at JFK were arrested in 2014 after authorities said they stole two designer handbags from a suitcase, and then tried to sell them on eBay.

Then, in December, seven more JFK baggage handlers were charged with stealing valuables from checked luggage. The items were stolen from suitcases of passengers traveling to or from Hawaii, Japan, Johannesburg, London, Bangkok, Dubai, Milan and various USA Cities.

In Miami, which aggressively goes after luggage thieves, police have arrested 31 baggage handlers and ramp workers since 2012, including six so far this year.

Police set up a hidden camera inside the belly of a plane last year and caught baggage handlers rifling through luggage and stealing various items.

Another hidden camera caught a baggage handler rummaging through bags in a secure luggage room inside the airport while a security guard looked the other way.

"Insider threat is very scary for us in law enforcement, and certainly someone taking somebody's cell phone, iPad, computer -- what's next?" Estis said.

A CNN investigation earlier this year found that Miami and Orlando are the only two major airports in the country that require employees to be screened through metal detectors. Miami even checks employees when they leave work to go into the main terminal. But that apparently hasn't stopped the luggage thieves.

"As far as being able to get the property off the airfield, that's a great question," Estis said. "We have theories. ".

In LOS Angeles, police last year executed search warrants on 25 locations after getting complaints about thefts in two terminals. Among the valuables found were computers, watches, jewelry and cameras and designer bags. Sixteen airport workers were fired.

"We cut theft in those two terminals by 60 percent because of doing that aggressive investigative work," said Patrick Gannon, police chief of LOS Angeles International Airport.

Luggage theft could definitely lead to more serious problems, he said.

"I absolutely think that if we don't pay attention to the small things that happen around here, that it could lead to much larger things. So there is, I believe, a connection between baggage theft and terrorism," Gannon said.

Even the TSA has had problem employees. Since 2002, the agency has fired 513 officers for theft. It employs about 50,000 officers today, and last year screened more than 443 million checked bags and nearly 1. 7 billion carry-ONS.

Luggage theft isn't confined to airport workers. Outsiders have been caught on surveillance cameras stealing luggage from carousels. CNN contacted airports around the country and found while the total thefts from carousels are relatively low, it continues to be a problem.

For example, Seattle reported 214 luggage thefts from carousels and other airport locations last year, 200 in Las Vegas, 36 in Atlanta, 35 in Phoenix, 15 at Ronald Reagan Washington National, 14 at Dulles International and 10 at Chicago's O'Hare Airport.

I had shit stolen out of my luggage from MIA a couple of years ago, there is basically nothing you can do. I filled out all of the paperwork, went through the entire bureaucratic process with the airline and TSA. AA blamed TSA, TSA blamed AA. And at the end of the day, I lost my shit, and wasted a ton of time. I try to avoid MIA if at all possible.

Here's the funny part Mr E, Warren recorded the sex on his phone camera.

[Mr Enternational]

All because he did not follow the first rule of mongering: LOCK YOUR SHIT UP!

In the video, which was recorded by law enforcement, Warren explains his side of the story. How he picked up two women in a Phoenix hotel bar and offered them money for sexual favors.

"I put the $600 dollars on the table, everybody got naked," Sapp explained.

At one point, Sapp says one of the escorts started talking. So he told her, "Why don't you use your mouth on me, instead of using it?

During the video, Sapp says he was snapping photos and joking around with the women because. As he put it. "I'm silly like that sometimes. ".

Sapp says a dispute began when one of the women asked for a "tip" -- and he told both of the women to leave. Sapp says one of the women grabbed his cell phone and called hotel security.

Sapp says the woman then spit on him -- which angered the other escort. And the two women began to argue.

Eventually, Sapp says the argument spilled into the hallway. and he chased after them while naked to get his phone back..

Luckily, Sapp says the dead bolt kept the door from closing and he went back into the room.

Warren was charged with two counts of assault and one count of soliciting prostitution. Sapp denies ever laying a hand (aggressively) on either woman.

If convicted, he faces up to six months in jail.

[Mr Gogo]

Gogo,

That's what I have been waiting for, and just in time for my extra week of vacation in 2016.

My connections have told me that Delta was holding on to this announcement waiting to see how things develop in Cuba. Cuba has asked for 3 times the normal rate for the airport slots plus their is much uncertainty regarding how the political process will proceed. Cuba wants to be taken off the terrorist country lists which will create more opportunity with banking and such but being taken off the list would require Congressional approval which is unlikely.

Also Cuba's infrastructure has experienced problems. Currently all the hotels in Havana have stayed full so they are moving the tour groups 20 miles outside of Havana and busing them in for structured tours. The fuck up part of this is that they are waiting until the day before arrival (The tour groups pre-pay) to move the groups.

We have a Presidential election next year that could wipe out all the progress if the Republicans get in. All of this probably encouraged Delta to look for other options and Colombia is sitting there with their arms wide open.
