just as they are, it just seems that some days you have 'ol Noah in you pocket and somedays you don't. As I fellow rotten speller I feel a need to
find out your tricks!  |
you are right some days I just hit it lucky. and some days nothing gets spelled right. 
when I do my recipes I do them on word and get Edith to check them over so they are always better .

I look upon 'Baja Nomad' as...
...a wonderful 'window' through which I get to see all kinds of neat stuff (sometimes not so neat...) about Baja California. The many contributors
here write about so many 'Baja' things I'd probably never get exposed to, had I not 'stopped' by to lurk every day or so...
I like to post when I think I have something to contribute to the 'conversation', or give a brief, 'Thanks' to those that have taken their time to
enlighten the rest of us about our beloved 'Baja'...the Trip reports and photos, keep Baja's 'Soul' alive in those of us that can't get down there as
often as we'd like!
For the most part, I just ignore the the 'flames' and such rot...if anyone has 'Flamed' me, it's lost on blind eyes, as I haven't read those threads
long enough to see it!
By in large, the volume of Baja California information provided, places to see, GPS waypoints offered, peoples names to pass along, photos of favorite
Baja places and the faces of those we read about here are just invaluable! Just think of all the good times we had with Senor Jimmy before his
'retiring' to calmer waters and brighter skys...as an example!
I find no 'stagnation' of this board. It's as vibrant as always, and if it lags at times, it's only our own fault - we posters here! Leave the
'flames' alone - they will die on their own 'petard' without getting the heated attention they crave!
Newbies visiting Baja Nomad have ton's of good Baja information at their finger tips by lurking the many separate forum catagories...as do we
'members' when looking for a forgotten item or lesson learned and written by another Baja Nomad that's been-there-done-that!
If it's a foggy day, keep looking for that 'break' that will let you enjoy the blue sky above!
According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"

forum
this forum gets out of hand at times but what doesnt these days? just because i live in baja doesnt make me an expert or "holy". i benefit alot from
posts from people who have visited and discovered something that i took for granted or just overlooked. i read most of the posts and alot of times do
not have alot to offer in return. but i have made some solid friendships here, i think we all have have a passon for baja or we wouldnt be here, and
just have different views, no different that life. we all have different values, i really dont think a common like should be argued about.

And blue Skies to you also, Sr. Bernie...Thanks.
Marv...did you get the 'steekers' I sent to you in Mulege, yet? Just wanted to know if the 'Baja Pony Express' was still bringing mail down you
way...regards, Ray

Always love to hear him sing "Crazy".
Seems to fit......"actions contrary to or in opposition to commonly accepted behaviors or actions; non-sensical behavior; ineffectual, unintelligible
communications behaviors....."
To paraphrase; people who make no sense and keep doing it, people who spend their time making statements or efforts that they should know will get
them nowhere"
Oops, I think I might be talking about me.........
But I'm not the only one !!!

The Electronic OK Corral
is bound to occur on most any board.
It happens on Allcoast.
It happens on Nomads.
It happens on BD.
It happened on Amigos.
It even happens on some of the new Central American boards I have recently found. Trouble in paradise.....
IT HAPPENS.
If it gets to be too much of a problem, it is much more efficient and effective to BAN OFFENDING PARTIES for a time, rather than attempt to police
every frickin' post.
Let 'em change email addresses or servers or whatever. They will still be readily apparent. Or, they will tone it down.
Personally, I like the "hands off" style of dealing with it. It's pretty simple to avoid posts by the Earps or the Clantons. But some just can't seem
to do that.
Somehow, I think JR was referring to "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain.

yo ho.. yo ho... and a bottle of rum.....
Whoa! Not one damn flaming or trolled post reply here! Thank you, you give me hope! Just as the days of bearded ladies and midgets in the sideshow
are over?.
I hope that the playpen here has dissipated its ?midnight horror shows?. Mudslinging your fellow Nomad is fun?the threats and name-calling is not,
to many of us.
All of you responded with strong, positive ?I give a damn? remarks. This must had been very encouraging ordeal towards the Warriors and Beasts here.
Should none have noted here?the postings all of suddenly became more flushed with the great stuff that it once produced a few months ago. Good going
all!
Yes?I saw a few of the fighting going in the other topics, but not in the General and Question n Answer forums too much?but certainly of the fact,
the tones and heat has died off to a settled level of sanity.
I encourage all of us, the Newbies (worms!) and the old timers here?to enter (flood) the postings with good stories, facts, re-posts and funnies?to
get the moral of the board back to its peak. It was fun for me (again) to read my Nomad Forums today!
See ya later as I enter the Mr. Stinson Beach Muscleman Contest this week end. I may win 79th place! Till Monday?all you Vikings hold the ship in her
glory!
What control freaks there are here. Don\'t believe that post you just read!

Oh settle down Yankee
You musta missed the serious chubascos that blew though about a year os so ago. Now that we have all been put in our places, it should calm down for
a while.
Nevertheless, good to see you back and good luck with the competition!

It seems to me that lately we're indulging in these boring Now-Let's-Everyone-Be-Nice! threads too dang often. Some Nomads can exchange opinions
politely and others cannot, but it doesn't take very long to figure out who is which.
