Pachanga Diaries

I arrived in Puerto Rico on July 24, 2009 and will be here for ten days taking care of the family and doing fun things. After spending time with the family and visiting relatives I haven’t seen in a while I headed to Bacardi Rum headquaters in Catanho, Puerto Rico to share my views about the sweet taste of rum with the expert, My dad.

In this Picture he is trying to decide; “Mojito or Cuba Libre?” – He had both. He is a clever guy.

Puerto Rican Fashion Research Case 20090730

On my way out of the “Parque de las Palomas”, in the old San Juan, I ran into this peculiar character. He is an acordeon soloist of the beautiful city of the Old San Juan; Captain Crocs. I didn’t know if he qualify as a prospect for my fashion research at the beginning and then I noticed his crocs.

In a humid weather crocs are paticularly useful since it protects, fit as a shoe and keeps great ventilation for your feet.

Many women feel that the potential of the man they are seeing is a matter of life or death. Instead of having fun playing with him (like a child with a favorite playmate), they evaluate his potential as a father. They situate any future relationship squarely in the realm of adulthood. The rest of their lives is at stake.

“Men lie the most, women tell the biggest lies” – Chris Rock

She Aikido Lies to you

Once, I dated a woman who said she doesn’t like people lying to her because she doesn’t lie. Instead of lying she will avoid answering the question or ask me back what do I think. She will also say; “I don’t want to talk about” and dismiss me.

Cute!! I always wondered if she thought I was that stupid so I lied my pants on fire about a bunch of bull shit. Well, can you blame me?

She is horny but won’t admit it

Society puts a lot of pressure on women. How they are suppose to behave, what they are suppose to do, and even what they are suppose to feel. Will a woman stand up and say; “I’m horny and just want you to take me to the back of a high school and do the dirty, dirty”? Probably, not.

It is only after they have reached their thirties that they realize they don’t have to lie about been superficial about their need for a very good hanky panky or a whats-that-a-hurricane type of sex.

She doesn’t trust you

Most women will say that this is actually the main reason for why they lie because … let’s admit it, it is our fault no matter how you as a guy want to see it.

She may have information she considers sensitive and isn’t sure whether to tell you about it. If you don’t know each other well yet, this could be a legitimate lie to protect others’ interests. As such, it should be seen as a relatively loyal gesture toward those she’s protecting. However, if you’re well into your relationship and she’s still hiding all sorts of information from you, she might have major trust issues.

She’s manipulative

Sometimes a liar justifies herself by saying that she only embellished the truth. Some people can win arguments and influence people just by emphasizing the right points — without really lying. On the other hand, she may lie outright in order to control the way you think or feel (typical woman’s behavior). If she tells white lies to win arguments or to twist you around her finger, you should watch out, because manipulation is a powerful tool.

She doesn’t want you to worry

If you’re concerned about that male coworker she’s been spending so much time with, she might lie about the time they spend together. This doesn’t mean that there’s anything going on (cough, cough !); she’s just doing what she wants without having you fret about it. How considered …

Him – “Honey what are you doing having sex with him?” -

Her – “It is nothing. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to hurt you but what is important is where my heart is and my heart is with you”. -

She’s testing you

My favorite. If she’s unsure of your temperament or intentions, she might try to test the waters. She could tell you a false story about a past relationship to see how you react. She might tell you her best friend thinks you’re cute to see if your eye wanders. This type of testing is meant to catch the bad guys before they get too close.

She wants to keep the upper hand

Final Thought

Heavy-Handed Paint

“The misuse or heavy-handed application of decorative painting. I saw a show house last weekend and it reminded me that you have to know when to stop. Brilliant painting is elegant and polished, but go too far and you end up with vulgarity when quality was the goal.”

Bright Overhead Lights

“There’s nothing worse than bright overhead lights that make you feel like you’re onstage. Lighting shouldn’t wash down on you: It’s harsh and unflattering. I use dimmers in every part of a house, including bathrooms. And soft white bulbs in lamps. The best light comes at you from shaded lamps.” -

Candlestick Mistake

“Candlesticks side by side. Candlelight, like open fires, has a certain allure — one of warmth and romance. To me, it’s most alluring when the light is spread around the room. In other words, separate the candlesticks! It’s also a more balanced aesthetic.”

Furniture Pushed Up Against the Walls

“I’m often dumbstruck by the way people arrange their living room furniture. So much wide-open space, pieces plastered against walls, chairs too far apart. It’s simple, really: The guiding principle should be to create intimacy. How can you have a good conversation when you have to shout across the room? I imagine the sofa talking to the chairs, the chairs talking to one another.”

Disproportionate-Sized Lamps

“Lamps that are completely disproportionate sizes on either ends of a sofa — that makes me crazy. Also when people hang a collection of pictures in these sort of idiosyncratic ways and it’s just a mess. Don’t try to get too creative. Keep it simple.”

Glaring or Gloomy Lighting

“Regardless of how beautiful a room is, it’s compromised by glaring or gloomy lighting. Don’t rely on only one kind of light source. Mix a variety of overhead and floor or table lamps. And keep in mind that you’re not obliged to illuminate every corner evenly. Warm ‘pools’ of light draw people in and create intimacy.”
