BIMBO BREAD HEAD or Clever Crazy Lady?
Note! This funny little moral story below was sent to me by a very good friend from California. I decided to post it here, and I hope I haven't done
so already, cause if I have already posted such in the past, I am a the product of eating too much BIMBO bread when I was in the Baja, so that's my
Story and I am STICKING with it.
===============================
On to the funny little joke sent to me from my good friend Sammy I Am.
Bimbo or Clever Crazy Lady?
===================
A Married couple is driving along a highway doing a steady forty miles per hour.
The wife is behind the?wheel.
Her husband suddenly looks Across at her and speaks in a clear voice,
"I know we've been married for twenty years, but I want a divorce."
The wife says nothing, keeps looking at the?road ahead but?slowly increases her speed to 45 mph.
The?husband speaks?again. "I don't want you to try and talk me out of it," he says,?"because I've been having an affair with your?best friend,
and?she's a far better lover than you are."
Again the wife stays quiet, but grips the?steering wheel more?tightly and slowly increases the speed to 55.
He pushes his?luck. "I want the house," he says insistently.
Up?to 60. "I want?the car, too," he continues. 65 mph.??"And," he says, "I'll have the bank accounts, all?the credit cards?and the boat!"
The car slowly starts veering towards a?massive concrete?bridge. This makes him nervous, so he asks?her: "Isn't there?anything you want?"
The wife at last replies-in a quiet and controlled?voice. "No, I've?got everything I need," she says.
"Oh, really," he inquires, "So what have you?got?"
Just before they slam into the wall at 65 mph, the wife turns to him and smiles. "The airbag."
Moral of the Story:
-------------------------
Women are clever b-tches.?Don't mess with?them.

Every good thing seems to come at a cost. We now have internet service and satellite radio down south, but now it doesn't seem quite so removed from
my home here. Also, the internet has allowed online reservations which has pushed some room rates through the roof. Think about Guad canyon and their
increased rates; would that be possible without the net? The roads are better, but you know what comes with that. Even once small towns now have
stores stocked with a wide array of goods that can be paid via credit card. I liked the small general store in BdLA before. So, I have to say, in
regards to my individual needs, there has been no real positive change in Baja that I can think of since I visited it the first time.

Biggest change I've seen are the incorporations of small towns into cities and the HUGE columns of organized motorhomes that just can't figure out how
or desire to let you pass. That and the price of a bottle of beer or tequila.

Yep. The switch from taped music to disc! No more miles and miles of tape strung out and in the bushes. Also, the recycling of aluminum. Now I can
Hayduke my empties and rationalize a benefit.

Man, those Bimbo posts took me back to old times. In the 1960s Mexican friends used to say, as if it were an important achievement, "This is just
like YOUR bread!" And indeed it was just like Wonderbread, but I never bought that at home.

The name Bimbo was taken from Bambi which came out about the same time the company was founded - I guess they changed a letter and the look of the
fuzzy little animal so they wouldn't have to pay royalties. Maybe it's supposed to be a cousin or something - I don't know.
Bimbo was rumored to be looking to acquire Interstate a few years ago but it didn't go down.
I think the best changes in Baja are the arrivals of Domino's and the american auto parts shops (oh - and Walmart and Costco too).

Unspoiled adventure land is gone unless you are 4wheelin, just be happy we have what we have, and not have to go north for a big mac. Anyway its not
our country no matter how long we have been here we are all still gringo's to the mexicans(yes JR) all of us. The mexicans appreciate having access
to all the good things we take for granted.
