Do not, I re...Hello HODAD26:<BR/><BR/>suddenly, I am thirsty. <BR/><BR/>Do not, I repeat do not worry about the competition, our product will be the best in El Salvador, where sometimes beer is like watter, the fat bottle "regia" has a bad tasty. Ok, maybe "suprema" might be our first obstacle, with its 4% volume, still it's water. Did you know that "la constancia" used to put row red meat in the beer silos to speed the process? <BR/><BR/>I friend of mine even got a finger keep in a bottle of pilsner. Since then I being carefull, I don't enjoy someone finger in my bottle! <BR/><BR/>we'll make it ( I mean you ) stronger, with a gross flavor from the ancient taste of land! we'll name it: "la clandestina" <BR/><BR/>It's true in El Salvador everybody run you over if they see the byke, maybe, just maybe, they read the trafic manual wrong and missundertood don't miss the road with don't miss the byke. <BR/><BR/>To be honest, salvadoreans (in the country) don't know how to drive, if they were to make a exam in other countries I'm sure they wouldn't had passed. <BR/><BR/>To have a license in El Salvador it's just a matter of buying it, even thought you don't even know how to start the cars engines. <BR/><BR/>That's why Tony Saca got a personal driver.<BR/><BR/>Taking about obese people in our country, look the way we cook, too much salt, to much "manteca", too much "lombrices" too. people would look healthier but many people suffer anemia and heart problem, hipertension etc, etc, etc. And many so many eat once upon a time ( sometimes "salteatido" picoteando por alli).<BR/><BR/>How come you'll sell pork without duty, from a country that is sometimes are subsidiesed by large governmet, and our farmers, don't even got support from nobody, make the pigies eat even shit to keep the little farms open? <BR/><BR/>uhm...<BR/><BR/>can we sent the piggies from El Salvador with 0% duty to make it fare? <BR/><BR/>After all Salvadorean piggies are sort of funny and very clever, they even try to get a job as actors in USA but failed, just because they're not so clean and sometimes they are a bit dark.<BR/><BR/>I'll demand hollywood for racist!<BR/><BR/>In the past many beaches in ES had plenty of sea anymals around the mangles, today they'v gone.<BR/><BR/>Our rivers got certains famous names such as "acelguate" where there isn't organic life but organic decompose matter mixed with unknown pestices and other chemicals.<BR/><BR/>If you can find life there then We can say there is life on mars.<BR/><BR/>send my regards to mister bush, the master evil doer, black vader is a good guy compare to him, empeached bush right now the planet need it urgently!!<BR/><BR/>Everybody in planet earth, and other living things around the universe ( if there is life in Acelguate river ) should have the right to vote to elect the president of USA, to stop the nonsense to rules and mess with all.<BR/><BR/>I still believe we have comun dreams.<BR/><BR/>;-)<BR/><BR/>Love and peace my inner brothers/sisters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-53897152233684835722007-03-01T11:45:00.000-06:002007-03-01T11:45:00.000-06:00gapgirl,yes unfortunately agriculture is on the wa...gapgirl,<BR/>yes unfortunately agriculture is on the wane in ES<BR/>one the wages, two as with most the work force is less motivated mainly due to remittances from USA<BR/>however, being a farmer is still a noble profession, but then in ES also, the wealthy have the land and reform is not all it was supposed to be in ES<BR/>too much mono cultivation, ruines the land, cotton, sugar,corn, crops very dependent of agro chemicals<BR/>shame groups such as CESTA< SALVANATURA, only manily talk, and not much dirty of the hands<BR/>but that is how it is in ES lots of talk, too many suits...........<BR/>talk is cheap<BR/><BR/>wheras there is still potential in ES for crop diversification<BR/>ie., one for me is medicinal plants from other countries, small scale and with AT and Sustainable agricultural techniques<BR/>time will tell<BR/><BR/>for <BR/>another anonymous'lol, you guys being unidentified have NO CREDIBILITY, anyway<BR/><BR/>people in USA now are arrogant,greedy,ignorant,obese, and xenophobic, that is MY 5's<BR/>why?<BR/>well too much TV, video games, american idol crap<BR/>where are values?<BR/>when i was a kid we were always outside, not anymore<BR/><BR/>life is too cushy in USA people see too many people geting RICH by not much work<BR/>teachers, farmers, nurses, police officers and even sanitation workers are the most important, I SAY, however the glorification of lawyers[FISH BAIT], DRUG DEALING DOCTORS ie: slaves to the Pharmacy companies,<BR/>stock brokers, movie stars etc, are who the idols are now<BR/>sad but true<BR/><BR/>however, we USA did put a man on the moon, ES did not<BR/>w/o gringos, things woould not happen, just how it is pal<BR/>as i have ALWAYS SAID<BR/>latinos are great workers, WITH CLOSE SUPERVISION<BR/>just a fact<BR/><BR/>we help folks all over the world. true we have problems, but i will also be quick to defend USA, at least the educated liberal folk<BR/>but as far as bush drunk being voted in, well the election was stolen in Florida as you know by bush drunk's brother with help of CIA assh.....s and his sorry ass parents, barabara and sr, <BR/>drug dealing hypocrites whose buddies are the military industrail complex, these are the companies that need to be shut down, from Halliburton, to all arms makers and those that profit from war and misery<BR/><BR/>legalize drugs, is a first step, certianly decriminalize <BR/>people will always do drugs, one way or another, it is a condition of the human being as long as we have been around<BR/>ask the guys going to Iraq, about Khat, every male in Saudi,Iran, Iraq chew khat,drink tintos, smoke hash, and carry a weapon<BR/>makes em crazy<BR/>in Indo and Taiwan, they all chew bettlenut, in Africa they did stuff i never heard of<BR/>best is homemade beer, right photons!Hodadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04993011326473703588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-12603663862302141242007-02-28T21:52:00.000-06:002007-02-28T21:52:00.000-06:00I think that these opinions about the drunk Bush a...I think that these opinions about the drunk Bush and the stupid servant of Kaka (read Saca), are real.

I know north american people that are excellents persons and I don´t know why, if a lot of american people are smarts, why they have an drunk assasin like president. Because of this stupid guy, US is the target of Muslim people, Socialist People, and a lot of people from all world. Because of his policies about care his enterprises, He doesn´t care about people.

Any violence or rumors of violence will surely scare the investors away.<BR/>I dont understand how economics work in a place like ES but surely an area the size of ES and which is prone to natural disasters would surely have limited natural resources that could lead to some socio-economic deterioration, add to that the critical security problem.<BR/>Isnt there already a steady decline in the agricultural activites?Is the dollarisation effective in bringing about higher levels of business and investments in areas that are promising? How does the tariff system supposed to improve the over-all business climate and open more opportunities for economic growth aside from well, the obvious reduction of tariffs.<BR/>As for biofuels, sounds new but after reading all the inputs, I think better to give it a chance.

what poor quality is sold now in mercado central<BR/>and with the blessing and support of my Carolina Congressmen/women<BR/>true, most is subsidized,but Guanacos love their pork and if i can get it less, and maybe evn stop some of the worm infested pork that is sold now, look at many women with their pouches at their bellies, in Latim Americait is mainly worms mostly from pork<BR/>got 6000 lbs bacon here at our storage now,<BR/>i will bring a bit of it down, and sell it for $3.00 lb, equal in Super Selectos is $4.79 lb<BR/>if I am wrong, please advise<BR/>and shame on me, I will also bring

make some,it is easy, used to cost me about 10 cents a bottle in 85, now maybe 25 cts, but we may be targeted by death squads from La Constancia!!!lol<BR/>i have even wired and set up a micro brewery here in Wilmington, NC before i moved to ES, frontstreetbrewery.com<BR/><BR/>yes, you are correct, everyone here is in a car, one rider,[and now with gd cell phones]<BR/> especially here in Carolinas,the society and structure is such that the schools, shopping areas, etc. are only accesible by cars<BR/>not much mass transit here, it is a shame,<BR/><BR/>i raced bicycles and did triathlons for 15 years, so i am all for bicycling, here they run you over,<BR/>but some towns such as Madison, WS are all about supporting human and mass transport<BR/><BR/>people here will not do w/o their cars, that is why they so support these crazy wars against a culture ,Islamic that is/was way advanced for it's time, ie: 15th Century Eurasia math, etc.<BR/>so, an alternative fuel system has to be developed, but NOT Hydrogen<BR/>too dangerous, <BR/>especially with storage<BR/><BR/>so, the infrastructure is in place fo a liquid alternative<BR/>ok, so out the exhaust from using seed oils is H2O vapor and CO2 , NOT SO2 nor NO2, which contribute to global warming<BR/><BR/>screw the lobbyists, they should be in jail now, <BR/>and a push in on here to limit their actions<BR/>i truly believe soon there will be here a stronger movement and hopefully with success to impeach Bush, <BR/>impeachbush.org and commondreams.org are two great informative sites on public opinion<BR/>then that fool saca will go easy for you guys<BR/>as it seems 80% of ES want him out<BR/>and visitadorhow about you, , you are kinda there,almost but not all 'greenies' are for burning corn/food<BR/><BR/>but with high obesity,here/USA and now in ES [i was amazed at the obese mall going folks now in San Sal after not being there for a couple of years this past summer, whoa fat folks abounding,]<BR/> high fructose corn syrup is in most foods, makes it taste good, but horrible for the body<BR/>the large food corporations like Con Agra[they of tainted Peanut Butter fame] make quite

about the legacy we are living for the future, our mentality just recycle the same mistakes were living.<BR/><BR/>While in the USA, the colective transport system is almost nul ( in proportion to its population ) in other countries in Europe, Colective transport is a great solution to stop using oil.<BR/><BR/>People in the states, act sometimes less responsible to the enviroment, the mentality to keep consumption and recycle still in all the minds of everybody like it is a necesity.<BR/><BR/>You can propose so many solutions to the problem, but the power to implement them lay on the top, those people marriage to oil companies, those lobbies are strong.<BR/><BR/>Look at us, we sometimes do not use those products, sometimes the solutions lay in nature itself.<BR/><BR/>There are recycles methods to use what we already have, still voracity and selfishness mentality are a real obstacle to the introduction of these sort of solutions.<BR/><BR/>By the way, if you can pass the formula to produce beer I would be very gratefull, I'dlike to open my clandestine pub somewhere around here to keep my clients happy with your formula, with your help and my distintive caracter as a beer bartender we can help to make this world much better.<BR/><BR/>Love and peace my inner

also working on other seeds for bio-fuel, castor and others,<BR/> but hemp makes THE MOST SENSE, that is why it is not legal,<BR/> oil companies, chemical companies, the established medical community/large pharmaceutical companies and others do not want it legal,for obvious profit reasons,<BR/> as in Genesis, "God gave forth every herb bearing seed, to you it shall be for fruit"<BR/>most all plastics, of course paper can be made from hemp, w.o dangerous pesticides and herbicides<BR/>corn no way, it would drive up the price of pupusas ansd tortills, then you will really have a riot<BR/>corn is touted as the major agro bix companies are already involved, and as in here the Carolinas, the farmers make no money per acre, except w/o subsidies, whoich is a no common sense reality<BR/>HEMP for the future of american farmers, and to solve most of our energy, vehicle,paper,plastic, and yes even food solutions, the Chinese use hemp tofu like cakes in very rural areas for school children's lunch, it has one less essential amino acid then soy, soy 8, hemp 7 the body needs 9 to manufacture the other 22 or so<BR/>gapgirl, yes, ethanol is sugar, from cellular sources but a different type of fuel than an oil based fuel, like seeds with oil<BR/>a totally different distillation process, [this from a beer maker of 25 years, lol]<BR/><BR/>yes saca and bush, 2 ignorant, manipulated peas in a pod,spinning and propogandanizing for the benefit ONLY of their big biz friends<BR/>IMPEACH THEM BOTH for the future of any children any of you may have or wish to have, for me at 53, never too late, however i would feel better if i knew there was a better future for them, and we have serious problems, let the arabs keep their oil, and as Bucky Fuller said" what will we do for grease , when the oil runs out?" there is NO substitute for the properties of petroleum based lubricants, NONE<BR/>sugarcane and corn based ethanol are very poor substitutes for the solution, they also need large amounts of agro chemicals to grow,be kept disease and predator free, hemp needs none 75% of weight of plant at maturity, is SEED<BR/><BR/>AND AGAIN TO ANONYMOUS, i have been around the world, Sir/Madam<BR/>i do not think Guanacos are idiots for having saca, as same for usa folks for having bush <BR/>corruption is abundant everywhere, for me Salvadorans are the best people in the world, as i have said b 4, "the smallest country, with the biggest heart"<BR/>and as an engineer, there ARE solutions to problems, common sense, is well, not common, engineers should run the planet, NOT politicians and lawyers.<BR/>but....engineers do not want to run the world, just solve the problems, no matter the importance<BR/>PeaceHodadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04993011326473703588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-39505981449930307842007-02-28T09:43:00.000-06:002007-02-28T09:43:00.000-06:00Pol:Thanks
