Trouble in Mexico.

[Jungle Jim]

There was a policeman at the guard house there three weeks ago. Friendly and just waved us through.

That was the last time we will ever go to JJ's Cantina. There we fifteen or twenty "employees" in black t-shirts giving us and three other gringo customers non-stop shit. Some were so-called "security" types and the others so-called "waiters". They kept their stink eye on us like we were some kind of criminal perps. We didn't even buy a beer before I told the wife "lets get the F**K outta here".

That sucks!

That sucks!

It’s was a nice Dive bar maybe some people like the tourist prices but 3 tacos for 13 dollars and a burger for 14 they will definitely keep us frugal people out and maybe that’s what JJ’s wants.

What I really miss is the condiment bar covered with black shit eater flies and the plastic scooper spoons that hadn't been switched out for days.

The fish tacos were great there as long as you didn't slather on the green and red sauce. Always a good work out eat as you had to constantly wave off the moscas that had just dined on fish guts and gaviota excrement.

Gone are the days!

The Bears finished the season at 3 and 14 after after an ass kicking from the up and down Vikings a 1st round draft pick “The Chicago Bears are concluding one of the most surreal weekends in living memory. Nobody was surprised when they lost to the Minnesota Vikings at Soldier Field. Most of their starting lineup was out with injuries. It was a foregone conclusion to most. A loss would secure the Bears the #2 overall pick in the 2023 draft. People wanted to see whether the Houston Texans would defy the laws of tanking and go for the win over the Indianapolis Colts. Doing so would hand the #1 overall pick to the Bears. In a wild finish, Houston stunned Indy 32-31 in the final seconds for the win. Chicago suddenly holds the draft’s top prize for the first time since 1947.

There is a Police sub station at the entrance of Cholla, rarely manned.

Yep, JJ's is different, in some areas, much needed improvements, also in many ways over done.
They figure they make more $$ from selling fewer $14 food items than many $3-5 ones

Although I've guzzled countless cervezas at JJ's over the many years, never ate there and likely still wouldn't.

Jerry, you are as un-witty and not funny as usual.

by the way, I asked did anybody see the Bears game, didn’t ask for a synopsis of the entire season.

We ate there years ago had simple burgers and we all got sick. I still won't eat there even if new owners have it.

[playaperro]

I remember that memo guy!
Did anyone hear about the white shark attack? happened the other day to 3 scuba divers.
Read it on Penasco Digital.

 

[Idyllwild]

White shark attacks in southern Sonora have now returned, resulting in the death of three fisher divers in Peñasco.

The events occurred in Peñasco, Yavaros and Paredón Colorado, for which the scientists Mauricio Hoyos and Omar Santana gave a virtual talk to those who daily risk their lives diving on the seabed.

The experts from the organizations Pelagios Kakunjá and Ecología Cielo, Mar y Tierra, highlighted that the months with the greatest presence of this species are December and January, since pregnant females enter in search of breeding areas.

On the other hand, Omar Santana included that the apparitions can be caused in the same way by the atypical movements of their food, which are the sea lions that could be getting closer to the coast of Sonora.

Thanks for the translation Idyl.......

Still does not make much sense. I have never read anything that mentions female Great Whites breeding in the Sea of Cortez nor anything about Sea Lions getting closer to the coast of Sonora as in that is exactly where they have always been found.

I sort of doubt this but who knows.The guys I know in the fish camps have not posted anything about it.

Story by Luke Gentile • Yesterday 1:30 PM




A 19-foot great white shark decapitated a man in front of horrified witnesses earlier this month, claiming the first reported shark attack victim of 2023.

The attack occurred on Jan. 5 in the waters off the coast of San Jose Beach in Mexico's Tobari Bay, according to a report.
The victim, identified as Manuel Lopez, was diving when "the animal attacked him, ripping off his head and biting both shoulders," Jose Bernal, a fisherman who witnessed the attack, said.
Witnesses to the scene said Lopez was diving for ax tripe, a species of mollusk similar to scallops, and had been diving to depths of 59 feet without an air tank, according to the report.
