[QUOTE=SavePros321; 1530365]If you have her info outside of Facebook, could someone relay to Catherine (Cat IP) that her Facebook account has possibly been compromised. Her account is "mentioning" a ton of folks and the post says "entrar aqui" and "sexy video, click here".
I hope you guys were smart enough not to have clicked on the link, LOL![/QUOTE]

Sorry amigos not what you're thinking, but a gem anyway. I highly recommend the free app called "Easy Taxi." It works great on my old IPhone, and is invaluable to those among us that struggle with the Spanish language. The app locates your location (with a screen to correct any mistake. It's using GPS) hit a button and within a few seconds you receive a photo of your driver, his taxi I'd, vehicle license plate number, and his phone number. His progress is dynamically tracked, with estimated time of arrival. And, of course, an alert when the taxi has arrived. And, it is in English.
Sometimes just simple things make you smile. Good energy, amigos

Hi everyone,
Thinking of going to MDE the weekend of Mardi Gras at the end of the month. Anyone ever been at the Mansion at that time before? Do the girls take off and do their own thing? Is there enough traffic to keep you happy?
Thanks in advance!

[QUOTE=Manny51;1530877]Really? I thought that Mardi Gras in Barranquilla is a huge celebration.[/QUOTE]You are probably thinking about "Carnival" (pronounced "CAR-KNEE-VAL"):
[i]"The grand parade, held on a Saturday afternoon each year just before the start of the Catholic feast of Lent, is the party’s culmination. You’ll realize immediately it’s carnival weekend because the minute you finish with Colombian customs at the airport, after the 2.5 hour long flight from Miami, the party is on - bands playing in the airport, models offering everyone drinks and a jammed arrival terminal full of excitement and anticipation for the weekend’s big party."[/i]

The only type event that grand in Medellin is the Flower Festival ("Feria de las Flores") held in August every year.
Carnival in Barranquilla is trash, anyway IMO. They love to hype it as the second biggest one in the world. By some measure, that is probably true. But compared with the shit that pops off in Brazil (I also hear Barbados and some islands have cool ones) it's fucking nothing. Bunch of families and shit, a lame ass parade. I did have a guy offer me a night with one of the Aguila girls for something like $1500 USD. I declined but I gave it a little thought LOL. Overall it's a crowded mess. I admit the clubs go off for that shit, but they are not bad on any given weekend. There is also a lot of crime during it, the most common racket is one guy acts like he is partying and having a good time, he blinds you momentarily (either with foam or flour) and two other guys run your pockets real quick. Getting a cab is also typically a disaster at that time.
Also, whoa, optic guard, can you elaborate on this incident?

"Statistics compiled and published by the CBP in 2006 indicate that "[o]and a typical day, more than 1. 1 million passengers and pedestrians. Are processed at the nation's borders." Securing America's Borders at Ports of Entry, USA Customs and Border Protection. 2 (Sept. 2006) , [url]https://www.hsdl.org/?view&did=469950.n4[/url] [*24] Using that figure, fewer than one in a million electronic devices were detained by the CBP. Stated another way, there is less than a one in a million chance that a computer carried by an inbound international traveler will be detained. Even in the case of a quick look and search of a computer, in which CBP officers simply have a traveler boot the laptop up, and look at what is inside, United States v. Arnold. 533 F. 3d 1003, 1009 (9th Cir. 2008) , as opposed to a more comprehensive forensic search that would presumably occur if a computer were detained, the number of USA citizens subject to such a search comes to approximately 4. 9 per day, or less than a five in a million chance that their computer will be subject to any kind of search. Even if both USA citizens and aliens are counted, there is about a 10 in a million chance that such a search will take place. See United States v. Ickes. 393 F. 3d 501, 506-07 (4th Cir. 2005) (rejecting as "far-fetched" the suggestion that "any person carrying a laptop computer. On an international flight would be subject to a search of the files on the computer hard drive[, ]" because "[see]ustoms agents have neither the time nor the resources to [*25] search the contents of every computer")"
