Nice link, Kenny, thanks. Sometimes the old ways are still best... ;)

Ah, that makes things clearer, and if that's the case then I don't blame her a bit for being seriously upset. Thanks, clayb.

Oh duh, I must have been having a senior moment, lol. Saltwater it is. And I KNEW that, too!

Thanks, Sea Dweller. I needed something special to post in The Tides today, and this really fit the bill. Great job, perfect music to accompany it! Cool beans! :)

We did not discover from this video if the woman actually lost any money to the developer, and though she expected delivery on a certain date and that wasn't met, isn't Las Palomas now finished? In which case one can assume she did eventually get her condo. I can sympathize with her, but the use...

Stuart, you've never been to Xochitl's? GOTTA give it a try! I haven't been there recently but I understand the new place is great and the food and "ambience" haven't changed. I gave it a plug a little while back in Beach Buzz and it made me hungry just thinking about it, lol...

Thanks, Joe. That's what I wanted to know!

New laws for Mexican cellphones There is news about some new regulations for Mexican cellphones: "In yet another attempt to throw a wrench into the operations of drug cartels and other illegal operations, Mexico is changing its laws on the use of cellphones. It started back in April, with all...

Can you use Magicjack via your laptop and headphones, as you do with Skype, or do you need to connect your laptop to an actual phone?

Russ, all things being relative, what is your definition of "huge"?

Great map source, Terry. Thanks. Looks like they were a bit further north than Bahia de Kino, but the 6.9 one was closer to the Sonoran coast than the Baja coast.

Kmbphx: No worries about a tsunami, according to all the authorities who know about such things. Off the top of my head I'd guess BOLA is close to being straight across the Sea of Cortez from Bahia Kino in Sonora, north of San Carlos and south of Puerto Libertad.

I'm not there right now, was just wondering if it caused any trouble there. Sounds like all is OK, and that makes me happy.

3 earthquakes hit within a few minutes of each other this morning near Santa Isabel, Baja California, measuring 5.0, 5.8, and 6.9 That's near the Bahia de Los Angeles (BOL) in Baja. Around 11:00 AM. At least one of them was felt in San Diego, Los Angeles and Phoenix-- how about you? Did you feel...

Whistling past the graveyard, beachgirl? :-D But if we're talking' pie, well I could seriously get into that! Of course it's always possible that English is not the poster's first language?

I'd guess there'll be all kinds of goings-on in Old Port, around the Plaza. Probably music, food, drinking, vendors selling flags, balloons, sombreros and rehiletes, maybe a parade, the usual accouterments to a major Mexican holiday (or American, for that matter). Lots of fun! And of course El...

When I was a kid there came a time when my mom discovered her flour supply was full of weevils, but she used it anyway, trying to convince us that it was healthy because the weevils were good protein. We might have overlooked it if the flour had been used to make cookies or a cake or something...

Yeah, I agree with you guys. It'll get worse before it gets better, and some prices ARE approaching early '90s prices. Sigh. And about those Canadian nightcrawlers, X-Costie-- are they nice and juicy? Would they go well with a nice chianti? :D

This is what we're faced with, guys and gals. Multiply it by the millions as it applies to Mexico as a whole. I run up against this kind of thing continuously on the City-Data forums and elsewhere, and I'm so tired of repeating over and over that people's fears about travel to Mexico (and Rocky...

Great response, Bill. Hard to argue with that. Hat tip to you.
