"didn't take his girlfriend" How does THAT work? I can imagine dating someone and saying I'm going off to the Dominican Republic for cigars, but I don't think you'd enjoy it there....LOL It's interesting that these WEIRD guys get latched onto by these folks that can't find their place in the world and suddenly they're icons to lost people. Look at "inodes" response to me when I conjectured about our comparative "imagined" relationship with Ollie North.

Yeah, yeah. i-node et al extol the virtues of the golfing and the cigars. But, he didn't take his then current girlfriend and he did have the Viagra. But, he could golf almost anywhere. Ditto as far as buying cigars. Even adult prostitutes can be found pretty much everywhere. One thing is harder to find, though. And it is readily available in the tourist areas of the DR. Tourism is what drives that part of the industry. Sigh. You do realize that the DR is a tourist destination for many with money, right? And you do realize there is much more there than merely child prostitution, right?
