again


you are the only one, who knows what they are taking about. there is no tourism in central baja in the summer. the locals are looking for work, not handouts, if i can provide that for them i will, you are the one who has no idea!

For an example,


What exactly does central Baja have to do with anything? For another, you just think I live in Rosarito. 1/2 right.

On the other hand, I do have some bamboo growing in central Baja, I think. Haven't been there recently but if it is, it just might come in handy in a couple more summers. Aw heck durn , hoo wooda thunk a that?:lol:

Yall crack me up! Too bad ************* :lol:

I was asked to do what I am doing


not by gringos with opinions, not by tourists, but by the local people themselves. What part of that don't you understand?

Think I'm makin it up? If you had ever been there, you would know that's not the case. Yet, you still carry on about whatever it is that you know nothing about. Armchair experts forming opinions from afar? I think so!

well


you live in a border town which has p----gringos all year , i agree (lots of cash flowing). but you have to expect that, its a border town. everything is closed here now or soon to be. you cannot lump mexico into one big basket. or you can, TJ, Rosarito, Ensenada, Cabo, same to me, tourist traps. you are not an expert, you dont know whats best for the mexicans, you are self proclaimed. i havent heard one of the locals speak of you. you dont know what you are talking about. when i have a local hungry and looking for work, in your opionion i am supposed to teach him a trade ? or i am a P-----gringo for making work for him that i really didnt need done? sorry that might work in Rosarito but people in mulege need to put food on the table.

Jr.

No.1 I Have been there many time all through the area .
No.2 In my humble opinion they don't need anything you have, provide, donate. It will just make them dependent on you Ha!
No.3 They wan't there kids to stay in San Bartolo, No way when they get to secundaria they have to go to La Paz and live with relatives or stay in one of the Dorms supply by the Government. and when they are done do you think they are going to play Bamboo, No they will stay in La Paz find a job and make money, and San Bartolo with stay the cute little green town its always been unless you encourage people to invest in your land projects(you do remember them don't you. Then you will be in JR's touristville.

Jr. Not only have I been there,I've been down at the bottom of the hill while you were there, I'm sure you would have liked me to stop and so you could show off your project but I thought better. I don't think your reply was defending your project. If your project is worth a damn you would defend it. Now onto another subject JR since your so good with words why don't you do something like writing a book I'm sure it would sell millions and you wouldn't need any help for your saveing Baja Projects.

I'm not asking for help for any of my projects


and I sure don't think I'm saving Baja from anything. I just happen to have some friends who asked me to help them with something. And that's all I'm trying to do.

Not sure what business it is of yours but I can certainly understand your boredom. I know two gringos in your area and I sure don't carry on about you guys "lives".:lol::lol::lol:

Maybe you should try getting one instead of concerning yourself with others! Because you sure as hell don't know what you are talking about regarding mine.

You came by when I was there but didn't stop? James Bond? Inspector Cleusou ? The Pink Panther?:no:

JR Are you having a memory lapse

(Baja Bamboo, Donations and Lending a Hand)
Just what was the above post about?

And you ask what business is it of mine, when you ask the board that includes me I do have a say.

Perhaps amongst a few gringos


on a Baja message board and the usual gringo gossips.
But then how does that fit in to teaching some things to some friends of mine who seem to enjoy what we are doing. They don't even speak gringo gossip, let alone value your opinions.

And if they learn well, they won't be dependent on you and your gossip either!

credibility


jr, you just keep a close eye on that border and let us in mexico know when they are coming. and yes its to tempting and you get sucked in, to this self proclaimed bordertown expert. negitve, negitve, negitive. give me your weak, your gringos, your newbies, mexico is a wonderful place with wonderful people (with the exception of a few experts). dont be afraid to come here, make friends, mexican, american, canadian, its all good and we all help each other.

The funniest thing about anon. idiots


is that they have this force field called anon so they don't have to sign their actual handle to their posts. They can say totally stupid things, make false accusations, and argue about things they know nothing about.
Care to place a wager on whether that picture is Mulege or not numbskull?
Or, perhaps Mulege wasn't there until the P-nche anonymous gringos got there! What an idiot!!

What I don' t get


is the "who knows more about Baja" part. I don't recall saying anything besides the fact that I travel more parts of Baja regularly than most people on this board.
I do call the armchair advisors on their made up or false information which USED to happen fairly regularly on here. Until they realized that not everyone was a newbie to Baja and actually wanted some backup for their advice and bs words.
Shame on me.
And instead of giving reasons or substantiation for their nonsense, they attack. And they get their semi intelligent friends like JZ, EE and a whole commode full of anons to attack. Which is the real reason the board has taken a turn for the worse. DK and MH are the core of the problem as they have been caught (embellishing) so many times they now feel threatened by real information.
I have never attacked anyone first. I have only responded to others attacks. Yet they accuse me of attacking people on here.
If their cohorts could read, they would probably be able to see this, but then if they were that intelligent, they wouldn't be cohorts to begin with would they?
I challenge anyone to find a post where I have started a personal attack on someone on this board without first having been attacked by the same old numbskulls.:light:

This oughtta keep Comi busy for a while anyway!:lol::lol::lol: Wouldn't you just love to prove me wrong ?:light:
