Yeah now if only the F***ing thieves at the Bank of America will release the funds transferred to pay for it, all will be copacetic!!

Friday has come & gone but still stuck here due to combination incompetent personnel at the TD Bank not following directions for bank transfer + the Bank of America’s insisting on information that’s none of their business, before forwarding the funds. Requested the funds returned & will just take them across the US border personally […]

El Salvador gets an undeserved bad rep & is the last place to be discovered in CA. Not much tourist infrastructure as yet, which is a good thing for the independent traveler. El Roble Hostel is great & only a few minutes away from a deserted beach + a few more from some great surfing. […]

Hasn’t been much new to post the past little while, the saga with the moronic Ontario doctors continues as the uninformed “little tin god” at the nursing home is still insisting that absolutely no one with dementia should be allowed to travel, he sounds more like a cut & paste job from Google then an intelligent […] -

As any independent traveler knows, they are square pegs that just don’t fit in societies round holes. While this can make trip planning anywhere from a tad annoying to downright infuriating (especially when dealing with the Melbourne office of Qantas), the rewards for sticking to your ideas can be amazing & in most cases cheaper than […]

I am in new uncharted territory here & need some information. With nearly 34,000 hits on this blog, it’s possible that one reader has some information they could share with me. I would like to relocate my mother to El Salvador with me, however in the past month her dementia has progressed to the point […]

there is an Ontario as different from that of the GTA as Ontario is from BC. The 400 km/5 hr trip, from the outskirts of the GTA, transports one into a vastly different region that is culturally & socially foreign from the self proclaimed Center of the Universe. People converse in 2 languages, switching back & forth, often […]

Yeah there is the odd civil servant that actually does the job they’re paid to do efficiently & with a smile, almost an extinct breed here in the Ontario, however it’s like a breath of fresh air when you finally come across one! Should be much simpler down south, merely a matter of finding the […]

a threat to call your local MPP on the hospital’s satisfaction website accomplishes! While looking for the hospital administrator’s contact info I came across a place where you could comment on anything related to service & patient care. Not really expecting anything but figuring it was worth a try I aired my grievances with a note that […]

“I wake up but can’t seem to move in the bed, strange wonder what’s wrong? On further inspection it appears that I’m tied to the bed. How can this be & where am I? Last thing I remember is being arrested in my school classroom & taken to the hospital by the police. Guess I […]
