Wife sent a friend and I to Costa Rica for 5 days for my birthday.
Discovered that I am to out of shape to surf like i used to.
Wishing I was using the vacation time to build something.
Anyone else have these kind of problems?

The good news is I scored some half price day old sushi (their refrigerator broke)

Day old sushi in a tropical paradise. Hmm, maybe driving the Locost without a helmet isn't all that risky. :rofl:

I'll swap you for a few days in the frozen North.

As soon as they started flying again after 9/11 I flew to the Cayman Islands on Standby. There were more crew than passengers. Due to all the chicken poo cancellations, prices were being cut left and right. No reservations? Noproblemo.

Didn't Harry Belafonte have a song about half price sushi?

"Day old! Day-ay-ay-old..."

Your wife is surprisingly sophisticated. My wife wouldn't have sent me to Costa Rica for five days with a friend...particularly if my friend wore American Flag Daisy Dukes...not even if it was my birthday.

[Edit: Sorry, that was bob's post that had the friend pic; I go confused for a minute. Never mind.]
