    Yes, J0518 is friendly with him and confirmed it above.

    It's not a "joke," it's a parody.

    I heard from a neighbor that there are bed bugs in Bogota.

    Now can I not eat there without someone freaking out about me "boycotting" the place?

    Just had dinner with the wife and kid at Bogota earlier this evening. We didn't see any bedbugs, but we enjoyed the usual outstanding meal served by a friendly, attentive waitstaff. For the holiday season, they've got Coquito at $6 a glass, and while I've had Coquito at Puerto Rican Xmas parties before, I've never had it like this. It was like liquid rice pudding, only with rum. So thick, so delicious! Reminiscent of a kind of rice-based smoothie we drank at the long-gone Flor's Kitchen on Waverly Place, only Bogota's Coquito was even better. We'll definitely be back for more of that stuff before the month ends.

    jamzer, the bedbug snarls are getting pretty tired.

    perhaps you think nobody notices who they're directed towards, but i know they're directed at me and i wish you'd just stop your attack.
