New Scam in Rosarito


This new scam is being pulled mainly on older men.

What happens is that when you stop for a red light, a young nude woman comes up and pretends to be washing your windshield. While she is doing this, another person opens your back door and steals anything in the car. They are very good at this. They got me 7 times Friday and 5 times Saturday. I wasn't able to find them on Sunday.

That's funny...kind of the same thing happens on my patio...


..all too frequently lately, a pesky gal from next door comes over to 'check out' one of my fishing rods. Then, before I know what happened, my Pacifico is gone and I don't remember drinking it! I'm losing a lot of good Pacifico these days. And this used to be such a quiet neighborhood...sigh:spingrin:



I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Lock The Doors


I NEVER drive around with my doors unlocked, North or South of the Border, unless I'm out on the beach. Heck, I lock my car doors when the vehicles are sitting in my driveway.

don't even THINK about leaving this board again. Shame on you. Your posts are the greatest. I live vicariously through them. What would we do without you? And besides that, I am sure that the picture of Felipa with the big note worshipping you was a fake. So there,

Goin' back for more, and more, and more, eh? My first thought was ... that many trips back and you didn't get pics. What were you leaving in the back seat for them? Oh, happy belated April 1 to you too.

Case Rested ?


I'm glad that JR's case is rested, but unclear on what that case may be. It's clear that his brain has been well-rested for years.

In the event that he is assigning some value judgement to my lack of trust in my fellow man, Oh Well.

My motto is to always hope for the best, but expect the worst. More people should try it. For one thing, you will often find yourself pleasantly surprised, but never disappointed and never come off second best in a serious situation.

Speaking of which, the other night while laying in bed at 0100 in the E.U.A., my front door opened and one of my security lights came on. I carefully and quietly picked up my 45 ACP and walked down the hallway, checking every room, then going over to the door. The security screen was still locked, but the door open. Apparently my wife hadn't closed it tightly and the gusting wind blew it open. As a result, I was pleasantly surprised.

Nothing Lucky about it.


If anybody had been shot that night, it would have been a Bad Guy who deserved it. I've never shot anybody I didn't intend to. Gun control is all about picking and hitting your target.

A humorous aside to that subject is a radio program I was listening to in San Diego. Roger Hedgec-ck's guest was a former Law enforcement officer who had written a book on Self-defense. One of the points he made during the show was that if you ever had to shoot someone inside your house, fire (3) shots. Two Center Mass and one into the ceiling. That way when the law shows up and asks if you fired a warning shot, you can say Yes.

JR--If geography confuses you, get a map. If it is simply a reading comprehension problem, I guess it's hopeless at your age.

Bill,

Did you ever consider that you may have watched too many cop shows on TV ?

What if the intruder was a 14 year old kid looking for trinkets ? Do you think he deserves to die by your gun ?
There isn't much justification for theft but there is no justification for shooting a kid.

What if the intruder was one of your neighbors/friends trying to wake you for an emergency ?

You might want to think about the potential consequences and guilt if you actually shot and killed a neighbor, friend or kid.
