In America dating is big. It's so big there is an industry built to cater this part of social life.
From dating sites to valentine day to candy to flowers the GDP benefits from this scam big. Add to this another industry making a killing - big pharma.

In Spanish it means the rich coast so named by Columbus landing in early 16th century and being mesmerized by the local tribes sporting gold jewelry. Our stay included visiting the foothills of a large strato volcano called Arenal and enjoying the naturally heated thermal baths for a while. Lunching amidst lush forest and watching indigenous species of avian noise makers fly overhead. Toucans, some sort of pea hens, multiple song bird species completed the spectacle. Iguanas and a lonel...
Is this what they call chemical warfare?
