Internet has taken a big dump today. I´ve wasted 30min just reloading pages. Don´t have much time so I´ll just highlite the highlites....

*All dogs are fat and pregnant. And yes you can milk anything with nipples.

*Met a kid on the chickenbus yesterday. He was one of the workers. Spoke perfect english without an accent. Turns out he was born in santa monica, lived there 11 years, parents were deported make to Guat. Now he works on a bus. Sad...

*Guatemala is run by the 4 or 5 really rich families. One of them is the Paiz family. The yhave a chain of stores called Hiper Paiz (literally Super Paiz). These stores are akin to the megamalls in America. The mall consists of a Costco size supermarket, various clothing stores, Cell Phone Dealers, GNC, Radio Shack, Music Stores, Arcades, Kiddie Rides, and a Food Court ("Eateries that operate within the designated square downstairs count as food court. Anything outside, of said designated sqaure, counts as an autonomous unit for mid-mall snacking. Now, if your going to wax intellectual about the subject... ")

*At said food court, they have a burger king, subway, chinese food, and Taco Bell.

*Yes I ate at taco bell. I felt compelled to complete my strange trip to the mall with american mexican food. And yes, the burrito was crappy. Why is it that all Taco Bells around the world give you all the Guacamole at the butt of the buritto? Is this in their employee manual?

*That´s it for now. Tomorrow I´m going on a hike to the tallest peak in Guatemala. See Matt Climb. See Matt Wheeze. Wheeze, Matt, Wheeze.
