Come on, folks! That's DavidK's nature. He's a Baja addict with an itch.


I personally would cut David a little slack. While I can understand that his posting style may grate on some, I cannot fault his passion for Baja. I have learned from many of his contributions. When he interjects right wing politics in the mix, I call him on it. I don't like that because, obviously I don't agree with him there. Overall though, his presence is positive and beneficial.

Some strings are political by nature because they involve international politics. Commenting with a political viewpoint may be valid in that context, but in my opinion, just throwing out a right wing talking point, out of context, for shock value(?) is being out of line.

David does seem to be a gentleman though, and in our few exchanges, he has never shown disrespect for me.

David=>>>>:saint::?::no::rolleyes:

Now, how about something from you other than 'nasty' comments? I have told you I am not bragging and I have no reason to lie, so please accept that... Focus on Baja, not on me!

Now, I have some work to get to... See you later!

Some of you people just need to get off of David's back. Ok, if he posts something political in here with his regular stuff then call him on it. If not, leave him the hell alone. It is apparent to me and most people that David has a great love for everything Baja which shows in his personal web pages as well as what he writes on BajaNomad. My guess would be that many who attack David do not share the same political views as him and because you know his politics you just don't like him. That is only my opinion and like many other opinions on this forum it probably stinks too.

Hang in there David


The last couple of posts are right on!
You are a good guy, you love Baja, you share good stuff.

My comments on removing numbers were not aimed at you, actually, there are others on this board who seem to just post to make the counter spin....
and they (and we) know who they are.

As a matter of fact, I have had nice in person time with David and his lovely other, have frequently communicated by phone and email on specific topics, and have invited him to accompany our merry band of Baja Boyz on our annual trip.

He is solid, sincere, and a friend

Hi guys, back home from working out in the sun on a customer's drip watering system (for his wife's vegetable garden he is making her for Mother's Day). Oh, you don't care what I was doing? That's okay, because I just added one more post to my count!:rolleyes:

(It really isn't about me... I am only here expressing my thoughts about posting on Nomad... and no Ron, no desperation here... I am quite happy)

Seriously... I just would like everyone to post MORE Baja stuff... More quantity from all of you... Do it! Viva Baja!!

Thanks to those who said nice things... It really is better to be friendly, isn't it?;D

When I first started posting, David was helpful and encouraging, he never acted condesending or better than me, he politely answered my questions on this and another forum. I have grown to respect his information and posts because I know he has many years experience and he will share. Not like some of you who treat newbies like they are a pain in your forum (didn't want to add cuss word)! The only reason I have managed to stay around is because nice people have talked to me along the way.

So enough of my temper tantrum, Thanks David for all your help. Connie

David does a lot of nice stuff for a lot of people on this forum, myself included...no I don't agree with everything he talks about but I don't know ANYBODY that agrees with everything I think--and frankly that's a scary thought!! :o Keep up the good work DK (eh, just readjust those Seven Sisters GPS a few points off :lol: )

David K, we may not agree on politics and I have to say that from time to time you REALLY get to me with those little asides.

But your friendly, informative, helpful posts about Baja are the greatest. You take a lot of time generously answering people's questions, and your Baja knowledge is amazing! Even your old family photos are very cool, and I hope we get to meet you someday.

I was starting to get parnoid about David being "jumped on", and no one letting Diver know WE don't give a crap about what he thinks about David K. But this post says it all. People in glass houses shouldn't~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~. David does have his 'friends' after all. We know David and Love David. Not many can say the same about Diver??????????? Geeezzzzzz. I read & love Davids info. And either I'm bulletproof, or some folks are just plain, "paranoid"??????? i've never been bothered about what David has to say. I love what he has to say. I don't remember anything Diver has to say. I remember most of what David has had to say over the years.!!! Yahhhhhh. I know. Another post!!!!
