I also remember some complaints that came into our Rosarito office some years ago saying that copies of the Southern version of the Gringo Gazette were lying piled up in a warehouse, but I can't confirm whether or not this was true.


Have a neighbor who worked for Torres at the RB Hotel back then. Part of his job was to visit the stores the GG was displayed and throw them away.

Ouch! Which "you" are you directing all that to? :o


To no one, but i have seen this happen many times, so if any of you think nobody is listening, they are.

So...what the *** is that. A threat?


I thought he was saying "Don't turn your back to a Mexican you insult because pay back's a b-tch".

Passive-aggressive culture when most gringos become in-your-face aggressive when need be. They don't have the culture of bearing arms so they learned to fight back more passively when no one is looking. That's all.

Dennis, i honestly don't have a clue about what are you talking about, or why you are mad. My comments have in no way anything to do with you at all, in fact, you wheren't even on my radar on this discussion. So whatever made you angry, you are sooooo wrong i can't even comprehend.

Wow!!!:no:

Everybody needs to stop posting for awhile and cool your jets. You're better than this.

Oh the Irony


Oh the Humanity. This is a Cultural Disconnect facilitated by the cold atmosphere of the internet.

Dennis, don't insult Jesse, go to your corner. I know that it's useless to ask you to apologize, I have experience with fractious commenters.

That was NOT directed at you for christ sake, it was meant to say ANYBODY WHO ACTS THAT WAY, THINKS HE IS SMART, AND OBVIOUSLY IS STUPID. Jesus!!!
