Going back to PR again this year! Here's the current outline of the vacation plans… subject to change. Here's the map. Arriving Friday afternoon, staying Friday night in "Da House", a sort of bohemian artsy place on top of a popular nightclub, packed full of art by local artists. Spending Friday afternoon/evening exploring Old San [...]

Since I stood in line on the first day to get my iphone, I've had one major complaint. (well, ok, three — No MMS and no flash so I can see the stupid website that AT&T sends me to when people try to send me MMS are the other two…) I wanted to add my [...]
