Instant Friendship
I’m going to show you how to be instantly popular with any cab driver or bartender in Nicaragua.
The magic name is Dennis Martinez and he was a pictcher in the Major Leagues.
He won 245 games, the most so far by a Latin picture and Dennis also happens to be a Nicaraguan.
If you can just memorize this baseball trivia answer and repeat it you are on your way.
It's July 28, 1991, and Dennis Martinez can't stop crying.The veteran right-hander has just thrown a perfect game for the Montreal Expos, setting down 27 consecutive Los Angeles Dodgers in a 2-0 win at Dodger Stadium.
How popular is Dennis Martinez in Nicaragua? Well he would win the upcoming presidential election next November hands down. Now that is a refreshing thought.

Thank you for the kind words.
I wish Dennis would get into politics down here. The country is so beautiful and the people are wonderful. They have the worst luck with elective officials.
The good news is we were able to buy the small plot of land next to the public well to build the Library for the local kids. Bad news is we had to buy much more than we needed and are in a cash pinch. Like you say... the money will come.
