Friday, October 16, 2020 During the course of an investigation, you have to be willing to go outside your comfort zone from time to time.  While working on a child recovery case over the span of nearly a year, we had come up against corruption from the courts, interference by the family and even sabotage […]

Wednesday, October 14, 2020 My trusty tech-guy, John Dovey, stood in for me and helped deliver the Monday report while I was taking time to study for a test that I had Monday night.  The good news?  Although I did pass, I feel like it was by the skin of my teeth.  Let’s just say […]

Monday, October 12, 2020 Well, Your favorite blogger/editor/man-about-town is … out about town tonight so you will have to just wait in anticipation for the next report for more of his witty repartee! In the meantime, he asked me to pass on this message: “Stay safe, and (unless you’re looking for Brett) just stay home” […]

Friday, October 09, 2020 When I was in high school, some 388 months ago, my ability to memorize was a thing of legends.  The downside to that is I was also a repeat procrastinator, not doing my homework or lessons until the night before, or sometimes not until the very day they were due.  And […]

Wednesday, October 07, 2020 Some of our best, funniest moments happen at the dinner table.  I think in our household, like in many, we always look for ways to make each other laugh, but the absolute best material comes out when mom presents us with new recipes.  “I don’t trust that.”, says a very doubtful […]

Monday, October 05, 2020 One of the pros of being one of the most powerful people in the world, is you have accesåçs to THE top medical advantages of the world.  To be clear, I’m not talking bout my wife this time.  It’s unclear when President Donald Trump was actually tested and diagnosed with COVID19 […]

Friday, October 02, 2020 Famed psychologist Sigmond Freud once stated, “If it’s not one thing, it’s your mother.”.  OK, he didn’t actually say that, but I’m sure he thought it once and again, given his beliefs.  One thing that he DID say, was “One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as […]

Wednesday, September 30, 2020 As we end another month, I feel overwhelmed with the amount of news and events going on simultaneously.  As the Jewish community celebrated the holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur, also known as the Day of Atonement, Panama fulfilled their promise to open the next phase of economic freedom, by […]

Friday, September 25, 2020 Yesterday morning, I had the pleasure to meet with Commissioner Dalis Melo, in charge of the “Comercio Vigilante” program in Panama.  The program is just like Neighborhood Watch (Vecinos Vigilantes), but for the commerce sector.  I’ve worked with Dalis before when she was in charge of Tourism Police a couple of […]

Wednesday, September 23, 2020 I don’t know about you guys, but I’m ready to do something new.  Right now, the “in” thing is to start a pod cast.  There are several expats in Panama doing them and they seem like great ideas.  I’m not so inclined to write, so maybe I should start doing podcasts […]
