Hey, I wonder how much Cosmo, or Maxim for that matter, would pay me for a story if Bill Beat me silly. ....I know... that's not funny. -but I wonder. hmmm Oh! Just saw this from Channel 5 news in Belize: And since bad luck seems to run in threes, the third piece of news involves a magazine article in the August issue of the woman's magazine, "Cosmopolitan". It seems that two women who were guests at Captain Morgan's Retreat on Ambergris Caye in May of last year allege they were brutally assaulted as they slept in their thatched cabana. They further claim that police and the resort's management did virtually nothing to solve the crime. Whether or not the story is true--at the time authorities and others involved told News 5 that the alleged crime never took place--the point is that the story has been published and no amount of retractions will blunt its impact. With many of Belize's resorts doing a brisk summer business while at the same time preparing for the much busier winter season, officials hope that the industry's recent spate of bad luck will quickly fade into the past--much like the hype surrounding "Temptation Island".
