Hometown Pride
Well, nobody's put anything on here for a month and the three "main" forums have gotten very tiresome lately, so I thought I'd share something I saw
recently, if not in Baja, within sight of it.
We're all familiar with bumperstickers, vanity plates and decals extolling the virtues of someone's "tierra"; the whatever capital of the USA, world,
universe-yada yada.
Friday, I spotted this one- a large window decal- in the parking lot of the San Luis IGA (pronounced eegah here), denoting the most salient feature of
this neck of the woods (except there's no woods):
YUMA
P-nche
CALORON
INSOPORTABLE
(except for Doug's software)
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Oso, what does the sticker try and convey? Something negative about Yuma?
Thanks!

Actually almost 5, grover. We count anything under triple digit as comfortable. (Mid October to mid March) Where is that lava, really?
OK, David. It says: "Yuma, damned intolerable heat*"
*caloron is a superlative, like "big heat".
