zipolite update

its been brought to my attention that a few of my remarks have been portrayed in a light of slight inaccuracy. such as, Andrew didn't say ´greencardbait,´ he claims he said simply ´greencard.´ and a host of other slight impromptu flights of fancy, im sure.
debbie, the police in puerto escondido have uniforms that say {policia turistica} and they carry big guns and make sure there´s no funny business going on in a very funny environment. we keep imagining them as meaner than they are, but they really dont have manners and will aim their rifles at your foot while talking to you.
 
the fear and terror and paranoia in a foreign land may have lead {or might lead} me to overinflate, like all the best fiction writers {and all the worst}.
 
corrections-clarifications will eventually follow.
 
for now, it is my birthday today and i will spend it dillydallying in a hammock and then catching an overnight bus back to Oaxaca. the details of last night are writ out as drawings in my sketchbook. i will have to get to a scanner to correctly transcribe.
 
The light is bright; the sun hot.
 
Peace,
Chuck
