Everybody Loves Sand Hooters

Travel

Walking the beach in Bocagrande a couple of weeks ago, I stumbled across some Colombian teenagers burying a male friend in the sand.

The Colombian kids, being exactly like kids everywhere, were giving the guy a large pair of sand breasts and giggling naughtily. Like they were the first ones who ever thought of it.

Flashback: for longtime readers, this is exactly what a bunch of kids in Singapore were doing, too. The only real difference was the weather.

All over the world, wars and languages and cultures may divide us, but humanity still seems united by one powerful force -- teenagers get a big kick out of sand hooters.

It's stuff like this that makes me think humanity almost has a shot.
