I won $100 on $ against CA and now the persons wants to get their $ back and is betting $100 on Cotto!

Technically, since the Count Floyd script was created in Canada, Canadian intellectual property law governs which would make the character "Canadian" despite the origin of the artist who created it. [no icon yet for "I am an F'in' know it all"]

Carlos Fuentes's "Vlad" brings the Count to Mexico . You could read it in your hammock whilst watching the bats fly about. Myself I LOVE reading ghost stories on my balcony at night in Mexico; been doing it since '89 in Isla Mu.
As the Canadian Count Floyd used to say "ooo, scary stuff kids".

I wish we could claim Joe Flaherty's Count Floyd as Canadian, but Joe's American, out of Pittsburgh. His 8 years as an SCTV cast member makes him an honorary Canuck in my book.

Bats on Paseo del Pescador (reply)

I cannot remember the name of the restaurant on Paseo del Pescador but I was having dinner under an umbrella (and a bit under the influence ) when HORDES of bats came flying out of a certain tree across the sidewalk and over my umbrella, defecating all the way! Some of the passers by were a bit freaked out as well. A very interesting experience but I suggest eating inside the restaurant around dusk.

Incidentally, in Manitoba scientists are studying the fungus that appears to killing many bats.

Many live in the abandoned building below KauKan, to the left of Hotel Irma.. At dusk they all burst out and do a fly by Irma's infinity pool.

Here on La Ropa they spend the days hanging upside down in the corners of ceilings. Many of the places have open to the balcony rooms, and the bats love them. Just beware of the guano.

Hola! Love the bats & enjoy watching them zoom thru our garden every nite, eating Mosquitos & whatever! Always wondered where they sleep in the day, & kept forgetting to ask. Just flying thru & reminded me! Any idea Rob, or anyone?
