    I remember my dad telling me stories about going dove hunting down there. This was the 80's, the outfitter had everything planned out, you were met at the debarkation gate by "very large" men who walked you through the airport, picked up and carried all your luggage, then drove you up into the highlands outside of Medellin

    So if you were going to live down there, you'd need a large driver/butler/wingman type guy on salary.

    Huge deal in Colombia for the past few years...the drug is called scopolomine, and it will get you robbed and hopefully not worse.

    I was thinking about the Tou Xer Xiong case. A real tragedy. He was a Hmong artists and activist and his death and how he died is hitting the Hmong community in hard.
