As a constibuter to this board, I need to ask if anybody else likes that new word as much as I do? I am fixating on it, already used it several
times in casual conversation in the last few days. It simply ROLLS off your tongue, KAHN-STIB-YOU-TER, and has so much potential: conspirator,
contributor, con job, distributor, constant, whatever. The actual meaning is invenereal to me when a word sounds that good. Thanks for creating this
Bernie, best new word I have seen in ages

Ken: same here - love it. But which syllable gets the emphasis? maybe depending on the usage? I'm using it as kahn-sti-BU-ter. But once in a while
it rolls off as KAHN-sti-bu-tor (as in one who constibutes). I've been playing around with the mexican version, kahn-STEE-bu-ter, and like that
also. Lots of good nitches to use this one.

Santiago: I would put the emphasis on the second syllable in both English and Spanish. I agree, the applications are endless, and I haven't even
gotten around to fiddling with the Mexican version, thanks for reminding me of that.
Bernie: You've done it again, "fildubbed"!!!! Now I've got to go to work on that one. Keep 'em coming

62, but since moving to Loreto a year and a half ago, aging has taken on a much slower, mellower aspect, and the fish dont care how old I am.

That's fantastic!

I can't wait for Neal to provide a definition for "fildubbed."
I must tell you that it was an 'intended' accident. So far you get an A+ in paper grading.

When I first looked at the topic, I thought that it had something to do with bodily functions and shied away from it....you know the older you are the
more constibuted you become.
But then the fish dont care about that either

BJ: If I catch your drift, turns out the fish do care. In the late 90s (1990s, Neal) my two boys and I flew into La Paz, rented a pickup and drove
to Las Arenas for a few days of fishing (if I recall, Las Arenas closed a few months after that). On our first day of panga fishing, we were into
bull dodos real good - I'm talking 50 pounders here. My jr high kids were plum tuckered. Somewhere around noon the pangaro (sp) started looking
very agitated, pointed to the front of the panga, yelling "banjo, banjo!" Now, I've been in quite a few pangas, even super ones, and never recall
anything of the sort. After a strange few minutes of our guide getting more and more anxious, now practically screaming, "Banjo, Banjo" and pointing
to the bow, it dawned on me that he needed to go numero dos and wanted us to face the front, away from him. We did, he did, and after the 'OK' was
given, we returned to our posts, no one commenting on the trail of toilet paper behing our boat. The bite promply stopped, never to return.

Ah but Santiago if your pangero had been constibuted you would have never lost the bite.

62 in November
Started running around North Baja on dirt bikes in the early seventies. Started building a little place to hang-out in San Nicolas after I drove 8200
miles R/T to Belize on my honeymoon and decided was wasn't going to do that again for a long time. A month and a half a year now for the past dozen
years. Not enough time, but at this point I can't start going when I was younger, and I ain't gettin' any. (younger)

36 going on 37 June 18. First trip was a vanilla run to TJ for my mom, a puppet/marionette thingy for me and a ukelele for my bro after a family trip
to the San Diego zoo in 75 or 76. Various TJ runs for blankets and vanilla every few years on family trips to SoCal. Took my own family to La
Bufadora in 2000 and in 2003 and 2004 went on brotherhood trips to San Felipe, Gonzaga Bay, and San Quentin.
