AeroMexico usually does not weigh the carryon or the hand bag, but like with all things Mex that could change at any minute. Just had an employee fly back to Mex on AM, said flight from MGA out was...

C'mon man, everyone has heard of Kamala "The Ugandan Giant", he and the Von Erich's had a major feud going for a while in the Dallas wrestling deal. He was something else. He was around during the...

I tell you all what Haiti is doing all possible to make Nicaragua look like a day at the park in terms of the Western Hemisphere. Ya'll watchale, as they say in South Texas, Haiti is going to turn...

What will be real interesting is when several of these countries move away from the dollar, yet they have millions of their expat citizens hanging drywall and washing dishes in the US and when those...

There are some very decent $45-60 USD a night hotels within a 5-7 min van ride from the CDMX airport. If you hunt and peck you can sometimes catch the in house Camino Real for around $85, just...

Yep, the old days, at least from where/when I joined, were alotta fun. Howard Cox and El Doc bitching at each other, JPJW, Magicbat, and a host of other folks were sure interesting on here. I miss...

Generally, at least in my experience, folks in LatAm 3rd world countries pour money into real assets, assets that are somewhat devaluation and tax man proof. By taxman I mean Hacienda/SAT/I forget...

Well said, I agree in the sense that several folks I am close to are doing well. I think the peril that they see and feel is that if their job or business goes tits up they really don't have...

I religiously check this site everyday, sure enjoy you all and it was fun and informative on here during my years in Nicaragua. The upheaval of 18' gave pause to so many things and amongst them was...

Purely anecdotal and might not make a shit or have anything to with anything. But here at the Mexican wannabe sweatshop, would be a sweatshop if they actually moved their ass, we have had 18 people...

I am very close to two upper end Border Patrol supervisors/administrators, our daughters play softball together. We communicate daily on a group chat for softball. My daughters batting coach is a...

In South Texas we ain't seen a cloud since the Clinton administration, seems like

I got an email blurb that said the Nicaraguan Legislature had approved passing a law making Nica Mothersday a formal paid holiday. By my count that now brings Nicaraguan legislated holidays to 10...

Agree, I guess they figured out that a couple of years of Gallerias day in and day out gets old.

No shit...

I just checked, HMO to MGA, showing $700 RT with a long layover in CDX outbound. If you time it right you can sometimes get the Camino Real in the airport for between $60 and $80 a night and it is...

Have you thought about flying or busing to CDMX and then MGA from there? If I were going to go, I would be going through CDMX, I guess the stop and get the Covid deal is a PIA, but Mexico City isn't...

It is about an hour and half from the most lived in parts of the city, probably more with traffic. Read some aviation folks stating that this was and will be one of the biggest boondoggles ever in a...

When did 100% IVA start? It wasn't like that a few years ago. Is it just on appliances and such? WTH?

So funny how tastes run different. I will eat just about anything, as long as it doesn't eat me first. Indio Viejo, is aptly named, as in if you were eating an old indian that is what it would...

Man, not within about 60 miles of the coast, at least the South Texas coast. The salt moisture kicks their ass and in the new models the electronic chippies and stuff fritz out and replacing them is...

Oh so right. And this situation produces a dual effect, 1. Gets rid of capable opponents to the dysfunction and 2. Creates willing exiled workers to send monies back for hard currency. Great...

Hate to see that shit, as that type of thieving is a self propagating type deal. Once it starts it keeps rolling until something halts it, and it ain't usually the conscience of the thieves. The...

Used to not be, you would have been correct. Now there are so many other problems and issues in Mexican society that drug use has become tolerated, at the least. One really never saw drugs, unless...

I will tell you why, even with warts, ass goiters, bad flatulence, and terrible body odor the Goddam USA is the best country the world has ever seen, and in it's hey day likely the best the world...
