Feeling Hurt


Not.

Something I've said for years (50 or more) often is that "IF those you consider Jerks think you're a Jerk, you've got it right".

The feeling of mutual un-appreciation is well,............ mutual.

The FACT that I consider Cookie a "Racist" whiner dating back years to his "I'm always picked on at the border because of my color" is reinforced by his idiotic nit-pick in this instance.

But it is, in any case, no problem.

He doesn't like me.

I don't like him.

Never Will.

And, so what !

Mr. Bile,

So how far back do your "racist whiner" days go?

Mood: Have Baja Fever

Wow guys, too much sensitivity... I hear 'Pocho' and 'Gringo' used plenty and if those words are going to break you down and make you cry... there isn't much chance for survival in the rest of the real world.

I am a friend of Ken, as we share a mutual love for Baja and four wheeling... also because he likes to show people a great time camping, as do I. Politically we are opposites, perhaps, but so are a lot of other Nomads and personal friends of mine. We really should be beyond that when we all have this love for Baja... the reason we are here on Nomad, yes?

I wish everyone could get beyond the skin color thing and see us all as 'people'...

Amen brother! I know you and I have helped many regardless of color and creed. At times Baja can reach out and bite anyone! We gotta have beers soon and catch up!

Black, White, Hispanic, breakdowns can and do happen to anyone. I knew that the issue of race would come up when I posted this article. As Baja travelers, we need to support those in need of help. :!:

SOME of MY Best Friends .....................


Now, THERE's a phrase that has been subject to a LOT of derision in the past.

From the Left side of the aisle.

That said, SOME of my friends are misguided, misinformed and mistakenly other than Politically Conservative.

Hopefully, someday they'll see the Light.
