Can you do that? Seems like the health department would have an opinion.

We will be in La Paz tomorrow.
And, talking about corned beef, anybody know of a place where they might have corned beef.
In my 20 plus years here, never seen it anywhere.
Please correct me if wrong.
Love the stuff.

Ron. I'm curious. Maybe you know. Shut Up Frank's was up for sale a few years ago. Never heard if it changed hands, or the original owner is still
there.

Happy 100'th Mom!
Tomorrow is mi mither's birthday. Born in 1909 in London and within hailing distance of St. Mary's. In her memory I will dress in the orange, drink
Scotch whiskey and curse the Irish.

Good to hear that Franks is still open. I picked up 84 lbs of corn beef and everything to go with it yesterday in El Centro and will fire it up at
6:00 AM tomorrow. It is one of our favorite events for the South Campos.

It was not sold .....
Except for ten or fifteen who attend the happy hour there is not much business ....
Hardly a hot item in this buyers market ....
Actually nothing is selling in Todos Santos 
Everyone thinks their places are worth about twice what they actually are worth

Now here is a Saint Paddy's Day story .....
A Mormon was seated next to an Irishman on a flight from London .
After the plane was airborne, drink orders were taken, usually an Irishman's favorite part of the flight.
The Irishman asked for a whiskey, which was promptly brought and placed before him.
The flight attendant then asked the Mormon if he would like a drink.
He replied in disgust, 'I'd rather be savagely raped by a dozen hoars than let liquor touch my lips.'
The Irishman then handed his drink back to the attendant and said,
'Me too, I didn't know we had a choice.'   
Happy St.Patrick's Day

We will be at the salon, with many of our friends and neighbors for corned beef with the works and drinking green beer, can hardly wait.
Does anyone know where we could find corned beef around Ensenada? Would love to have it more then once a year.

Murphy told Quinn that his wife was driving him to drink.
Quinn thinks he's very lucky because his own wife makes him walk.
I think the world is run by C- students.

Maybe try the so-called Irish pub on the corner of Independencia and Belisario Dominquez? It's called Isolde or something like that.

I've never seen that place open. I figured they were either out of business or not open until past my bedtime.
Paddy was tooling along the road one fine day when the local policeman pulled him over.
"What's wrong, Seamus?" Paddy asked.
"Well didn't ya know, Paddy, that your wife fell out of the car about five miles back?" said Seamus.
"Ah, praise the Almighty!" Paddy replied with relief. "I thought I'd gone deaf!"
I think the world is run by C- students.

Thanks Kate,
We will definitely look into it and if anything comes of it, we'll give a full report.
And just in case, Jesse is right down the street. Were there 2 weeks ago, and , like usual, it was fabulous.
Only complaint: so dark that you couldn't read the menu without a flashlight. But
also in his defense: the place is as attractive, if not more so than the old one accross the street. Great work Jesse !!

Ed....Go into the bathroom, stand in front of the mirror, and say this word again and again untill you're cured of it. You have to fight this in
the early stages to get the best of it. Have faith, brother.

Dennis,
Lost a front tooth ( reason for trip to La Paz) and it's the only word I can say without a lisp.

Don't lead Ed astray, Kate. I've seen his picture and "Exquisite" wouldn't work well for him.
You, on the other hand...........
