The great defender. Get a life.. I post on a lot of things here. Was specifically interested in the PBS special and did not want to wade through any advertising photos.


Hard to ignore when the pictures start flashing up. I would if I could somehow turn them off. Sorry Ateo for ruining your thread.


You already apologized for ruining Ateo's thread, I suppose that gives you the green light to keep it swirling the drain. How about giving the endless DK obsession a rest, it really is tiresome.

Watched the show (thank you, Jon for the post)... and it was mostly about Cabrillo and the Spanish sea voyages trying to find the current to Asia... in the beginning.

Then there was a nice interview with Harry Crosby about the Camino Real trail and his time on it going back to the 1960s when he was the photographer for The Call to California and his own books that followed.

A few missions were shown and mentioned... I look forward to the next episode.

PS I do a lot more than follow this forum. Since I spend the majority of my time in BCS, there is always a fish to catch!


I thought the fishing was exceptional in BA, why are you so perpetually miserable?:?:

Harald,
While rarely sharing my esteemed opinion on matters on this
forum ( :rolleyes: )...and while frequently enjoying your adventure pics/intel/quips.....

I have to stick to my guns and oppose the cretinous culture of Futzbook et al re: "LIKE" buttons....:

it reduces one's consciousness to a single digit IQ rating for a start....omits any semblance of intelligent response of any depth....and keeps the simplistic notion of "It's either this or that" with no middle ground (like Hitler's b*stard son)...

And besides, Harald....you are smarter than that.... :light: :biggrin:

only if your post is meant as a satire your emoticons make sense - they are on a lower (childish) level than the like button

yeah I don't know about the "like" button, but I sure appreciate the "blocking and hiding" feature! :yes: and of course that door swings both ways.

Well, if it was a satire, then the emoticons are necessary decoration (not childish at all)

and hey, let's take it easy - drink some Margaritas and enjoy Baja. We are very fortunate that way.

heck, we germans don't have TV, cars and telephone. Free speech? Never heard of it. You lucky Mericans - you have it all.
Mercedes? Not German - made in Alabama.

Don't know about that, seems like it's on topic--and you'd better believe that if I ever have a book available, I'll be doing the same!

Congrats on the book, David.

There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.
