Blow....blow....blow your boat...

And.... that is exactly why I cancelled my fishing trip for this weekend. Thanks for confirming that Buoyweather was spot on. Originally, it was predicting red flag conditions all day Saturday, but changed them to yellow - which is still wind in the 20-30 knot range. I won't even bother going...

You know what I get out of that report? Complicity. If the FBI, DEA, Border Patrol and Mexican Intelligence know this much about the players, who they are, where they are from, their names, when they are making moves like this, how many men are being sent to fight... and they do nothing? Arrest...

Totally On You... No problem here. It's as if a bunch of you were PMing each other in private anyway, so truly, no issues on my part. Other than the "ban" thing you mentioned. I certainly won't ban anybody from the forum because they didn't adhere to the rules of your group. If you want to...

Just got a call from buddy heading down. Said he's currently sitting right next to the mine south of Ajo. Apparently there's been a very bad accident between Ajo and Why and they have shut the road down and do not expect it to be open again for at least a few hours. Just a warning to anyone...

So what, you're all of 19 now? <smirk> Happy Birthday!!!!!!!

Beyond AK-47s... Perhaps the low-level street guys, yes. But the kind of hardware these Zeta guys are using is not bought at gun shows. We're talking serious military hardware. RPGs, grenades, M-16s. The pictures in this link show a recent bust (in May) of a Zeta camp south of the Texas...

Part of the problem of this medium as a form of communication - interpretation. I'm glad you agree this is serious; I know that you do. My comment about Sub was not directed at you in particular. It was directed at the forum as a whole because of some of the comments I was reading that...

Dear Ms. Mama, I'm only "in the know" based on my own travels, my friends travels, and a network of other folks that all share information, including this forum. My thoughts are this at the moment - you'll probably be just fine. Personally, I was planning on going this weekend, but cancelled...

Rosy, you missed my point completely. It could have been on Mars! The news report on TV last night DID NOT give a location. They put up a graphic with a red dot on it. The dot was just south of the border and, for anyone that has ever been to Rocky Point, looked to be VERY close to Sonoita...

Fox news (Channel 10) just reported on this shootout saying 21 people were confirmed dead. They did not give a specific location, only "12 miles from the border in an area known for drug and human smuggling." Still the graphic they showed looked VERY close to Sonoita. Not good at all. Just...

I have deliberately avoided entering this fray. I have strong feelings on both sides of the issue, as well as knowing Ric for many years. Ric (and obviously Rick) are both good fishermen. I'd also comment that, even though there are 7 or 8 fish laying there on the dock, they're still within...

Cuerno de Chivo "Goat's Horn" - Mexican slang for an AK-47 because of the shape of the weapon when equipped with a full, curved cartridge. No legitimate job in Mexico or the US requires you to carry an AK-47, period. You're either a sicario, narco, or gang-banger. Just that simple.

I believe that. They don't seem to assign any "fault" like American insurance companies do. And I honestly don't know the truth to this, but a Mexican friend just laughed when I asked him about getting a license in Mexico. He said anybody can get one. You just go pay the money and they give you...

Well yeah, but not for that. Certain parts of me still work just fine! Other parts are falling apart at the seams. Got to be having my gout medicine on a daily basis or the shrimp and beer tend to make me swell up and explode like the Goodyear blimp!! Cosmo knows me well in that regard and so...

Rosy is the expert, but I do know the answers to a few of these. 1). Yes, they are legitimate companies. Often, they are companies like Sanborn that does nothing but write tourist insurance policies. The gas stations and such that sell them are agents and typically make some small percentage...

That's really sad. They sell Viagra all over Penasco. :cluck: (sorry Kenny, couldn't resist!)

This is hardly news; they've been doing this forever. We call it the "Sonoita Revenue Enhancement Project." They usually set up just at the edge of town (coming from Penasco) where the speed drops to 40 km as you come over the hill. They are sitting by the Beinvenidos sign and just wave you...

Hope to see you there! I hope Dave still has my Grouper shirt for me!

I am trying to limit the amount of "shoot the messenger" that's been happening around here. Tell them they are welcome here anytime. Thanks!
