Real Baja Information

These Baja related message boards are a great place to find information, share experiences, make new friends,(and enemies) and a heck of a lot more fun than soap operas.
Until the P-nche gringos and chicken coup groups try and take over that is. **** has appointed himself a leader amongst these groups while pretending to be some sort of authority on Baja although he hasn't spent any more time in Baja than most tourists.
Yet, **** u2u's anyone new on here and warns them about others on the board who see **** **** what he is really all about. As far as *** "followers" go, they aren't smart enough to think for themselves to begin with. The blind leading the blind so to speak.
Now it seems, *** has managed to try and take over the board through a *** *** moderator who is deleting threads that point out facts about ****. And they were posted by others who have briefly been duped by these coop groupers.
I have made many controversial posts on here and most are aware that I do it to make people think. I know of what I speak and the only people who take offense are members of this chicken coop group who are actually the guilty gringos in the first place. I have never named names yet the same members of this group are always the ones to attack my posts saying I am self centered and worse.
Fact is, I have spent the last 3 years taking donations to the underpriveledged in the remote areas of Baja while these coop groupers don't do jack other than come down here and get drunk and act like the P-nche gringo tourists that they are.
And then they compliment each other for their parties at the same gringo enclaves they hang out in every time they vacation here. Baja aficionados they call themselves.
These are the same people who give gringos a bad reputation and those of us who live here laugh at constantly, you know, the ones who are constantly whining and complaining about the Mexicans, the trash, poor service, overcharged for food, gas, talking louder thinking it will help with their ola pacos and kuanto dinnero's, and spending the entire vacation planning their next drunk.
They are afraid to do anything alone and won't look a Mexican person in the eyes for fear of something bad happening. So when and if they end up moving down here, they build walls and generally don't last long anyway. Too dirty ya know!
Well, I am posting this because it is becoming a very common and unBaja like quality from a very few demented individuals who think their coming to Baja is cool. It isn't!
Coming to Baja and treating the humans as humans is cool. Helping and being helped is cool. Learning from the locals is cool. Realizing when somone is full of chit and nothing more than an armchair authority and in it for fame is cool.
As I say, there aren't that many of them, they all frequent the same enclaves, and they are the reason for the term "ugly american". Unfortunately, they seem to have congregated on this board.
Howz about the rest of us showing these fine local folks down here that we are not all a bunch of blowhard whiners like the chicken coop group that thinks it can control Dougs board! We will be the better for it and make some wonderful friends as well!

JR!!!!!

Not trying to change them Skeet

Hose A - will you please desist from ....

posting my picture on this public forum?!

i ask politely here that it kindly be removed at once!

My 10th was finished before breakfast!

And David convinced one of the shallow minded moderators to erase the whole thread that this was referring to. But, it would appear that other's besides MeNo and myself are finding out about the real dk and the chicken coop group.

Taking Over

I know it for a fact Bill.

I run into a LOT of people from this board that have verified it and Doug is also aware and doing something about it. The good part is that they got themselves caught by their actions, not by me or MeNo saying anything.

David

Hey, how'd you know my name was Paco? I may be American, and I'm certainly ugly and tonight I'll probably be a bit buzzed, Jesus, it's like we've met..... I am just happy to see a real leader step forward, kind of like our gubernator.
Excellent stuff.

Hang in there Tomas

I have learned alot from this message board. Once you get familiar with the posters here you will decide who holds the kind of knowledge you want or need. Over the past 2 years I have learned alot, and more importantly made some good friends. I look forward to meeting even more of the Nomads. The "soap opera's" seem to come and go. For some reason the last few months have had more drama than usual.

Hey Tomas

maybe you can get Doug to go back to the beginning and delete all the posts that are bothering you.

After all, there have been other things posted since the 3rd, where you had to go back to to dig this one up.

But nice you could stop in long enough to complain!

That wasn't a blasting

and by the way, how do you like your eggs?

A Lot of this stuff is tung and cheek here. Meany of us know one another and it takes a Little while to get to know what is really going on in some of these threads. sometimes we fight like brothers and sisters but in the end we are all Nomads except Anon. of coarse. it is one of the things I really like about this forum people speak there mind. and some time take a beating if some one else disagrees. but in this way we all get to know each other in a way that is not possible on other forums. don't take anything personal and don't be thin skinned and you will get to love these people like I do.

Sort of like

a very juvenile "adult" chat room. Sometimes, we even talk about Baja!

Keep yer chin up ol mate. There is in house fighting here, disagreements, catcalls, and a host of other activities.Good stuff and info is also in here most times. It's tamed most of the time. Join in, say your words, mark your turf. You are allow to call jrbaja names at anytime, but not the rest of us

Welcome to the forum Newbie (worm) Tomas Tierra. We all are good folks here.

"and a clamato beer"

without a doubt... one of the finer things in life. Beer just seems to go perfectly with clamato juice. I wonder how I got along without it before I moved to baja

with a lime sqeeze and enough salt to make it fizz up so you have to take a big lurg..
If beer #1 is before noon, then its a clamato..

I guess its always noon in Rangoon

I'd be the first to donate $$$ to the "before noon" Clamato/beer shrine. That stuff is a match made in heaven!

just good to compare notes... will have to try the hot sauce in there...
Also "old bay" spice is good instead of salt... but who's pickey at that hour

I am serious... like serious like having all the beer in the world but none in the cooler in the morning.....That is serious!
