Don't blame Graham or Discover Baja for my post giving the details of his slide show... it was MY IDEA. I am a member of the travel club and it was an
email I got from them.
I posted it in the thread (I started) about Graham's latest adventure, since the slide show is of THAT adventure...
After reading and seeing the photos, it occured to me that SOME of YOU Nomads just MIGHT want to meet Graham and hear him tell his story. My motive
was to INFORM you folks.
From past experiences, snacks and drinks at the show are FREE.

It just amazes me that some folks seem to be annoyed with the fact that David K tries to help people--------
who cares what his "motives" are---only David K knows his "motives"---------all I know is that he gives great information on subjects of great
interest to me, and I appreciate that.
Oh, by the way, I have followed this "thread" from the beginning and have enjoyed it. It never occurred to me that is was a "commercial" enterprise,
and I still do not think it is.
Now, about that "ocean front property"-------------my agent will contact you  |
Barry, good comeback - I should reconsider that "or worse" comment  .
However, you are making assumptions about MY motivation.

Ahhhhhh, you got me, and of course your are right. Only YOU know your "motivation".
Of course I am curious to know what that is, but probably should not ask.

Asking wouldn't help - that kind of discussion is not for the internet, but maybe around a campfire ...

Actually it's something a gentleman like Roberto would not discuss on the internet. Others here, particularly on the Off Topic forum, have no such
reservations.
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

-----Nothing could tempt me to go to the "Off Topic" board----again.
I find it a complete waste of my time, and hard on my blood pressure. Sorry.

Bratwurst, this is really stretching this thread and that question really ought to go to the Spanish forum. But... while we're on the subject ...
One of my favorite movie lines came from Rafael Inclan in something about Albaniles. A tough guy had threatened to kill him and caught him on the
street. "OK, acepto." says Inclan, "pero quiero morirme en el valle." "?Cual valle?, asks the baddie.
"?Va y chingue su madre!" shouts Inclan, flinging a handful of cement in his eyes and hauling butt.

Really interesting shots.....
......especially that cat from a Van Helsing movie. I'd be more afraid of that than, say, a rattlesnake.
What's that on the grill in shot #1, by the way????

The cat story was pretty amazing... Graham found the body of one (pictured) which appeared recently killed, but no visible cause was seen. The fur is
what amazed most in his audiance at the power point presentation... Freaky indeed.
On the grill? Probably fish...

thank you David K for keeping us up to date on this true Baja adventure. I have enjoyed it very much and am quit envies of mister Mackintosh's
adventure. the only thing I cant understand is why he refuses to post here on this fourm? he has many supporters here and lots of nomads buy his
books. so if you could get him to answer this question I and others would really appreciate it. Or better yet see if you could get him to post
something.
