Now if you'll have HER install Skype on her computer and get a head set, you'll talk FREE, computer to computer.

Ken----You need to inject Onelis' with a few "jeep" hormones when she least expects it, and aim her in the direction of Baja--------WE certainly hope
to see and hear about you two chugging along in Baja down the line.
Best to you two.

Thanks for the nice words and thoughts. As far as Baja goes, trust me. I've been working on 'em. Onelis even got a special-edition Baja Grande
t-shirt (in Barranquilla Blue).
Her father Julio and the rest of the familia got 'Grande gear for Christmas this year.
Onelis' little 5 yr. old son (Johan Sebastian) couldn't fit into a Baja Grande t-shirt, so he got something equally cool! 
His very own 40th Anniversary SCORE/Mama Esponoza's T-shirt. This is has favorite shirt...

Gee...I hope this doesn't sound racist but, Black people seem to have nice, beautiful teeth.
Forget to mention the "white" part. Maybe that's where it becomes racist.
Jeezo....I don't know anymore.

Skype is muy bueno. Have used it for years. Last week a Chinese friend in Wenzou, People's Republic of China, called me computer to computer. I
live in La Paz. We talked for over an hour - I have a MAC with built in camera and his was a PC with camera attachment. We both had perfect video
and audio and the entire call was free. The only problem I had was that when my wife heard our friend's voice, she came running up to the computer
not knowing the video was on - she had just come out of the shower - scared the hell out of my friend from China.
The skype still works.

What I like is how I can have a conversation and hear exactly what is going on in the background. The aural acquity is so much better than with a
regular telephone. I do get dropped calls on occasion, but for the price, I don't mind too much.

P.S. - with a MAC you do not need earphones or a mike - all that is built in along with the camera. Thanks Steve Jobs.
Hasta Luego

I agree with you on that Ken.It is kinda neat being able to feel like you are right there, in the middle of it all. I have a mic, used to communicate
with Mija (BCS)by Skype, but the echo and delay was so bad a lot of the time we just stopped using it. She has a # that I can call her for free,and is
a 949, number, something she got from Verizon, I beleive, limited offer, and she can call me free also.oops, don't tell anyone(ha ha)! (Communication
was computer to computer)

Skype is great, sometimes the signal is poor, most of the time it works fine. Anybody checked out "Package 8"?

Anybody try the magicjack yet? www.magicjack.com
I love mine.It's really great for people in mexico calling out. Haven't tried it in the states yet. My family loves it because they can now call a 619
number instead of international. Also like it because it travels with you . Anywhere you have internet you have your phone, be it your own computer or
internet cafe or friends house. . It also gives you your own choice of area code number and free answering. It's $39.95 for the first year and then
$19.95 there after. Check it out,k PS by the way Ken you two make a nice looking couple. Your gal is beautiful. Lucky you,Happiness to you both,k
