Jesse Ventura
I was watching CNNI at my house in Loreto last week when Piers Morgan was interviewing Jesse Ventura. Ventura was in the States to promote his new
book. He said he just returned from his new found paradise---which he called the Baja. Kinda interesting. He seemed to feel Baja was absolutely
beautiful and the best of all places. Hope you saw it too.

He's always raving about how great it is in Baja when he's on the Howard Stern Show. He was on last Tuesday, they have a best of the week on Fridays,
I'm asssuming they'll replay the interview and the weeks show's also repeat on the weekends.

Once in a while Jesse Ventura makes great sense. But it's usually on the order of an old German saying, "Even a blind chicken occasionally finds a
kernel of corn."
To give him his due, however, I admire his guts and his willingness to be utterly honest and pull no punches.

Jesse hangs out at the Crossroads Country Club on the East Cape, BCS. This has been talked about before on Nomad. It's fun to see him holding Court
in a funky bar/restaurant overlooking the Sea of Cortez. Not a Country Club and thats a real attraction out there as life is un poco Rustico and muy
Tranquilo out there! I would love to see some unknowing Surfer cut him off? Put the guy in a Sleeper Hold, Jesse! Sale Tio

My opinion.... what this man has accomplished in his life time is just incredible!

The event starts at 1pm
There are 3 bands:
Los Pulpos
Pura vida
Revelations-Reggae.
I also think they are having some sort of art fair, but I am not 100% on that.
It should be a great event!
Come one... come all

The only reason Jessie Ventura has any credibility at all is because he's an idiot.

Jessie Ventura has credibility...he became a Governor didnt he? 
I like him. Straight up talk. Perhaps his demeanor scares some folks. Wouldn't he better than the guy in the White House...ha(!)...or any other
previous ding bats ?

After seeing his interview with Piers it looked like he has Parkinsons or some neuro problem? He was very shaky.

Jesse Ventura tells it like it is. I only politically agree with half of what he stands for, but I think he is the only politician that always tells
the truth as he sees it. I would vote for a guy that always tells the truth even though I disagree with him over a guy who a tells the public only
what they want to hear even if from my same political party.

I have a lot on the east cape directly across the street from Jesse. I check on the lot yearly and I always hope to see Jesse and possibly share a
brew or two with him.
I'm in La Paz now and will swing by my lot next week and this time I hope that I run into him! Whatever you think of Jesse, you must remember that he
was a Navy Seal, and according to one of his east cape neighbors, a hell of a man and self made at that!

You heard that he would run on a Ron Paul ticket if Ron ran as an independant. Now that is a ticket that I vote for!

jesse is a freak act. they put him on TV talk shows because the audience is not very discerning and his freakyness apparently brings eye balls the
advertisers desire. i am curious, were the advertisements for erectile disfunction drugs and adult diapers?
