Cota Rica Bash - It's a Celebration Bitches!
 

Ok, big, HUGE props to the IwantU crew (and all the other sponsors of various events) - that was seriously one of the best shows I've ever been to (and I've been to a lot - ack!)

Great, GREAT locations, great group of people, great "vibe".. the whole thing.

I usually never do shout-outs because.. well.. I'm lazy but this one definitely deserves it. I hope to hell you do another one in 2007..

I really wish I would have brought a camera, but I slipped JFK $1000* on the side to take extra pictures of me so hopefully they turn out.. =)

Odie - my nugga - I can't believe we did the Canopy thing.. that was a trip!

Lindsay - Dude, you are THE craziest motherfucker I know.. but that's what makes it so great! ha ha ha I loved sitting around bullshitting with you - very, very smart guy and that's way cool.. stop putting dead fish in your mouth though bro, it's definitely worse than the boogers on bar peanuts..

Gary & Marlene - it was a pleasure to spend time with both of you. Gary, you and I definitely have to play some more poker - last hand, 4-3 offsuit split.. what a perfect way to end the evening! =)

2bet, myjah - Nice meeting you, great poker tournament in a tough environment (our dealer wanted to start our table by dealing the opposite way - ha ha)

RogerV - Great seeing you again - congrats on the new purchase! I'm going to have to hit YNOT Bob up for one too possibly. It was funny teaching that kid at the Del Ray what was up about who's who..

Duke - Great seeing you again as well.. so glad no one grabbed that little Colombian thing in the street who only wanted it in the cuolo.. "hiding something perhaps?!?" ha ha ha

Arkansas Dave - I WANT TO BUY YOUR PANTS! ha ha ha ha What was I, up to about $750? That offer was only good in Costa Rica though bro..

JFK - Great to see you again.. wish you were able to come do that thing with us in Brazil in May - let's see if we can work it out..

DH, Magnus - Fuck, it's ALWAYS on like Donkey Kong with you two. I love partying you guys..! =)

Brent. J Swing - what can I say about these two? Sheesh, two of the dirtiest pesos I know.. that's probably why we get along so well. Thanks for the lessons boys.. the first one doesn't count if you don't have to pay, right? =)

Jennyfer - Pleasure to meet you.. thanks all your help the first night getting us settled..

Varius -

Lara - Nice meeting you too Lara.. thanks for all your tireless help with everything.

Poppy - Always a pleasure bro.. we didn't roll as tough this time, but you were spending more time in the ocean, and I wasn't ABOUT to go in any ocean that POTENTIALLY had crocodiles in it..

Lori - I had to give you some shit about the poker tournament (only because I had to lose) but you did outplay and outlast (what is this, Survivor?)..

K Rosh - Remember the first hotel the first night (before we got to the right one?) I was SCARED bro.. =)

Airek - Thanks for the party Saturday night, and thanks for the tunage.. didn't last long enough for though! =)

Sleazy - Funny how we've seen each other at shows but never really got a chance to talk.. glad we got to do it in First Class on the way down.

Mike Jones - MIKE JONES! MIKE JONES! ha ha.. funny stuff.. gimme a shout about that stuff we talked about.

Steve Lightspeed - I think I saw you twice the whole trip. Hanging out in the villas while all the peons were hanging out at the pool.. tsk tsk! =)

YNOT Bob - Senor Bob, you were looking so comfortable down there.. a little TOO comfortable. It's so obvious you belong down there it's not even funny.. let me know when you get things set up - I'm coming down..!!! =)

Claudia, Werner - Pleasure to meet both of you - you make a great couple.. good luck with that thing we were discussing!

Man, what an incredible trip.. again, thanks to IwantU for making a really memorable show.. very generous. I'm going to give you guys a chance on some exit consoles - would love to be able to do good business with you!

Peace..

[* = colones.. ha ha]

You never age Big E you look the same after 10 years

Can't wait to move to Costa Rica Wetdreams Mountain

Roger V

How in the hell did you get to Cota Rica? Immigration wouldn't let me in.

Want an olive?

Same for you Roger.. we go way back, pre-adult even. It's great that we're both where we are in life..

Sly: suck it baby. I'm still coming down off the good times down there.. you're just mad because I didn't give you a shoutout. =) [Seriously, good to see you bro.. I'm glad you made the trip - your roommate's a cool guy - much respect for him]...

Damn that's alot of shout-outs... :winkwink:

Fuze: you know, it's funny because you were pretty drunk when I saw you at the poker tournament, so I kind of blew off your game but I saw you playing the cash game and doing well. If (WHEN) you and I play poker though, you've got to ditch the "I don't know what I'm doing" routine though.. =)

Scott: too many good times.. there was at least one story behind every one of those shoutouts..

I heard that was a great trip, I saw some pics of Big E, very nice :)

Good seeing you man.

No doubt. Was an amazing time. I don't see how anyone could possibly leave without a smile on their face. :-)

DOH! I canna forget Cory..! But again, you and I didn't get to party as much as I wanted - you and Poppy were like fish in the ocean.. did you ever get that tar or whatever off your trucks? ha ha =)

That tar was terrible man. Next year, you need to go out with us in the mornings as well :)

It was funny, we would go in the morning and the place was empty; return around noon and the place was a big party again!

BIG E...all I have to say is holy shit!!!

The only way to sum up our experience was "Picture a man the size of you sweating the way you did and that's about it" lol..

We're doing it again nextyear buddy!!! you got a year to get up the balls to go a second time! :)

Cory: I don't really go in water where I can't see the bottom. If something's going to come after me, I wanna know about it. =)

Odie: Nah, once is enough dear. It was an amazing experience.. I just don't see how a second time could add to it. ;-) hee hee

What's up with my fucking typos today? (trucks = T-R-U-N-K-S) sheesh. You'd think I'd been away for a few days having fun or something..

BigE, I was so stupid that I thought the canopy tour was just being lifted from canopy to canopy where you would identify birds and monkeys.

Think of my surprise!!!

I hated it when they would make you stand on the edge and unhook / hook.

I kinda knew what I was getting into (that it would be high and kinda scary) but NO WAY was I expecting that! Getting 8+ people on some rickety platform 100 ft up in some fucking old ass tree.. yeah, not digging that part. =)

The only way I was going to be able to do the first leg was to just do it and not think about it, but shit, when I hit that first platform and I was dangling over the edge - fuck that! =) I stood up and my legs were shaking so bad..

I'm really glad you guys stayed to do that.. it was such a trip huh?

Bro, the worst one for me was the box on tree 3 that you had to stand on, then the guy would make YOU jump up so he could hook you.

Funny enough, they gave the speech about breaking early and how you would get stuck out there. They didn't have to worry about my ass, I cam flying in without breaking man! There was no way I was getting hung out on that damn wire, which BTW, for those of you who looked, had duct tape wrapped on it with the trees!!!

I just wanted to see a monkey bro.

I didn't recognize the one you went on - I don't think we went on the same one? We didn't have to cross any kind of rope bridge or anything..?

I shit myself at tree 3 as well lmao..that's when I had an anxiety attack and the guy says to Ycaza...yo buddy you need to take care of your g/f...and Caz says "she ain't mine" lol...and hten he says "don't worry babe I gotcha, NOW JUMP!"

we saw a monkey on the 2nd tree :)

Hey man great hanging out with you. Our hotel the first night rocked(:helpme). I think our experience with the downtown area will go in to the record books too.LOL

I had no idea Costa Rica had a Spanish Harlem area filled with crakcheads


:thumbsup

Oh, we never crossed a sketchy, shakey old wire bridge; We stood on one while YnotBob shook it back and forth.

That really ticks me off.

That was actually the only reason I went.

But I am now glad I did, just to say I did.

That was nuts.

Ha ha ha - that's funny as shit. =) I'm so glad I wasn't there then.. I would have had a heart attack..

We didn't go on the same tour then..

Krosh: you're about as slow as a bitch getting ready. Don't you know what the fuck 5 mins means? =) We were all waiting for your slow ass, but it did allow for Odie to check in, get ready and beat you downstairs. =)

Just hold on a minute... I was drunk?

I concur on it being an awesome trip. No worries on giving me shit about the poker tourney... I looked at is an opportunity to finally get to chat with you :1orglaugh

I'll broker you some deals to make up for all those chips I took from you. :winkwink:

seriously tho, great to hang hon, look forward to next time!

lol good seeing you E!

i'm just glad I made the flight.

2:00 flight.12:10 still going at er.priceless;)

B

Uhh.. just a reminder, you didn't take any chips from me. I donated them to someone else. :winkwink:

Big E, awesome to see you bro, and making the final table in our tourney deserves Huge props. It was a pleasure swinging tree to tree with you, and im glad you were directly behind me each jump so i could see your face on your way down, lol. I have some great pics of you on the zip line, and ill have them up soon!

lmao, that posted twice

Thanks 2Bet - it's ok though - did pretty good in the cash game afterwards though: ended up with around $650...

I'm sure those pictures of me coming down the zip line are going to be priceless...

Brent: I never knew that side of you.. going to take me a few years to catch up to you - it's obvious you've got a lot of practice! ha ha ha ha =)

It's alright.. you held it well - I don't think anyone even noticed!
:thumbsup

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

what's up with you and the olives?? missed that one!

Bastard [* = colones.. ha ha]:mad: I couldnt even buy a "cheap" hooker for that BTW the pics USED to look great:Graucho

Big E, it was so great to meet you and watch you killing everyone in the poker tourney. I remember telling everyone that I wished someone would save me and move me to a different table so I could have a shot at winning! LOL! The canopy tour was soo crazy, you really got into it in no time at all. :) Can't wait to see you again!

go party dont post here

those are ton of shout outs

Big E!
 

It was great getting to know you too. I'm looking forward to seeing you again in Phoenix, and I'll contact you about our possible business arrangements.
