I'm showing this to teachers here in Monterrey at the university. They want to know if you are for real?
While you're warning everyone, we're going out to the downtown area for drinks and dinner and then for a stroll along the riverwalk and yes, it's dark outside. Cheers! - briansueExplorer
read stuff that never happens here in America
Where did you go to school? America? We have North America. We have Central America. We have South America. Mexico is part of North America. We are all Americans.

- rocmocExplorerWe like it ALL! Already have reservations for 10 days at Pennekamp in Key Largo for a winter RV trip to Florida but will return to Baja after we return. It's ALL GOOD!
rocmoc n AZ/Fld/Baja - smnExplorerFor the past 5 years we have spent our winters in the San Carlos,Maz, P.V. area. This past winter we decided to check out Key West. Will be going back to our beloved Mexico next year, Key West was nice, but can't wait to get back to the warmth of Mexico (people and climate). As far as the bedwetters who fear the cartels, bandidos , there own shadows, stay away amigo, sit in Quartsite and freeze your cajones off. With regards to the crime U.S. vs Mex, while in Key West a guy shot up Duval Street wounding 3 or 4 people, yeah that Duval St where Buffet's Margaritaville is and traveling thru FL, LA, Miss etc I didn't feel all that safe after watching the local news. The Mex haters will keep taking critical pot-shots but next year me and my compass will be heading south
- mexicorussExplorer III am not against people who have guns, but I do feel sorry if they feel they are in so much danger that they won't live without them by their side 24x7. I would prefer to live where I am not in fear all the time. The media has a lot to do in fomenting this unreasonable fear. Turn off your news and go live a life.

The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”
