This young Colombian husband and wife, with a different band at the time, stole the show at the 2007 Panama Jazz Festival. So what unexpected and amazing talent of which you had never heard will surprise folks at next January's 2009 edition?

Chiriqui Chatter

A good way to keep tabs with happenings in Chiriqui in general and its English-speaking community in particular.

One of the banned from TV --- on any number of grounds, one can be sure --- Bugs Bunny episodes. If you have never seen Bugs call a square dance, you are culturally deprived. If you are afflicted, cure this malady by watching this cartoon.

A really cool bilingual website from some folks at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. One of the most revolutionary and useful things about this is that it's one of the few references which gives you both the Spanish and English common names of local wildlife species.

The Elders

This is a group of a dozen exceptionally prestigious world peace and justice activists. Stupid is the dictator who blows off these people --- especially when it's the guy who runs Zimbabwe banning a visit by a delegation that includes Graça Machel, the former first lady of two countries that could instantly destroy what little is left of the Zimbabwean economy by closing their borders.
