#WEEKLYLOG3435: LOCKDOWN REVEALS COSTA RICA'S SECRETS, NEW INSECT DISCOVERED, TESTIMONIES OF A DWARF RACE IN OSA & ANCIENT GIANTS TALES "Long-married Pavones Ticos hunts young Tico man. They learned it from Gringos." Said a middle-aged Gringo with his shirt peering out of his pants to a handsome young Tico man. As If I Am Not There. Your flaky-shape-shifting alley bat is always in the sheens to make sure you're fed with the juiciest chismosa in Rica. It's always bad news for retiring vampires when a new type of blood-fed insect is discovered and multiplied faster than Eichhornia crassipes. The new insect found in La Florida is a round shiny beetle with a slight sheen, that bites like a mosquito, in the size/diameter of a chopstick tip.

However, although I am retired, I am always alert and hungry for a good story, so I stayed there. "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants." Said Isaac Newton in 1675 and my new psychic-aggressive-non-binary friend in 2020. Them/they (gender pronoun preference) assume they were actual Giants, like 3 to 9 meters tall, because history taught in schools doesn't tell us much about the dark ages, and when them/they saw Game of Thrones, Newton's quote struck a chord. In a wink, the fate of this dinner table was quietly condemned. Dinner with no conversations, like a third of families in America, sitting in silence, analyzing calmly each other to pieces, and the only nerves that mouths are the lettuces. I saved dinner with the famous saying by Julius...(From my Retiring Vampire Column on MagZuma News, full article in my bio) Photo by @madscientist4love (at Dominical, Puntarenas, Costa Rica) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCn47JFjpX_/?igshid=4cvvnb5ovxyn
