I am looking for a subliminal, back handed racist slant, and missed it:?: Maybe they are a little more obvious over in Off-Topic. Could someone point it out please. Love the "baca banditos" Shari!

Hmm that "good sense" idea I wonder where we find that?? I apologize for the lack of gender neutral statements in this quote. Just goes to show how gender politics have changed.


Interesting quote and I do believe it applied at the time it was written, well at least somewhat.

I also believe that often people are quite defined by their politics---it says a lot about who they are as a person at their core; or maybe it is their core values that define their politics.

My 2 cents


My feeling is that most of this bru ha can be attributed to the fact that MOST people don't like a know it all. (who will remain unnamed by me) :saint:

And the whole Bandit thing.......... I've been hearing the " Aren't you afraid of bandits down there" Since I was a little kid back in the 60's. I've always figured it kept the place a little more private for those with just a touch of an adventurous spirit. As others have said, "Peace out, Dudes" :biggrin:

When did mature become a good thing? Mature=boring and tired.

New run away out of control Toyota brake system. It mounts neatly on the top of the car, and is chained to the rear axel, and is spring loaded - no microelectronics, just pull the release cord.

This is the Toyota thread, right?

Okay Ralph, that is fair... I am sorry for bugging you... I am not trying to be either of those,. but yes, I do bounce into other's posts (as do you)... but usually just to add something positive or chit chat with others.

Just remember that I have Baja Fever, and I can't help myself sometimes, from sharing some of my collection of personal experiences or perhaps something from my extensive Baja book or map collection... I do like to give more than I take!

Cheers!

Call a spade a spade, Shari's post referred to perceived prejudices toward countries' citizens, which is a false notion and certainly prejudiced. Furthermore she couched it in denial of politicism which is certainly back-handed politics.

Well done but certainly as reprehensible as any others. Back to the point, DK's tire pressure is all wrong!
