Remember when Skeet/Loreto complained about the ads on these forums.

Advertisement keeps this place afloat so we can interact with each other. Sex sells just ask Joe!

I don't usually see the ads, because I have "ad blocker" on the main computer I use, but I don't have "ad blocker" on all my computers, and so I still
sometimes see ads, personalized for me.
A couple of weeks ago, one of my toilets broke, and I had to look for a replacement, but the problem was the toilet had to be a certain size to fit
under the counter, so I spend time searching for toilets of certain sizes, and after that I was hit with nothing but toilet ads for a few days. ( I
miss the old days, when you could fix your own toilet, the new low flow ones, are almost impossible to fix)
The forums that have "Ad sense" they don't make any money unless you click the ads, and read them. I have accidentally hit the "Baja Bound" ads many
times by a slip of the finger, so I should buy some Mexican car insurance from them to make it up to them.

Your toilet is under a counter? Really? My imagination is backed up and overflowing.

Dennis, from the point of view of the multinational corporations, what's the problem with NAFTA? |
Can't believe that came from you, Joe.

How does "Made in the USA sound to me?"
It sounds like an old throw back term from the 50's, when the US was enjoying the fruits of a World War II victory, and Dad worked, a nice union
manufacturing job if he was blue collar, and Mom stayed at home cooking and cleaning, Back then, most US neighborhoods in the suburbs were almost all
white, and the only scare were the commies.
Guess what Dennis? Those days and manufacturing jobs are not coming back, regardless of who sits in the White House.
The great news is you're college educated in certain fields, the job outlook looks pretty good, and many jobs today are paying pretty good, and $100K
jobs are pretty common in many fields.
I almost feel sorry for those white blue collar workers in the rust belt areas of the country who bought into the Trump BS, that he is going to bring
back jobs to America from places like Mexico,
The ones who I don't feel sorry for or those blue collar men and women, who listened to Trump' play Dog-whistle politics, and then try to place most
of the blame, and danger in the US on the blacks of Mexicans, Blacks, and Muslims. That's just being RACIST!

Today the add wants me to buy a ticket from Cali to Cartagena.
Yesterday I had just googled Vladimir Putin, as I did not know how to spell Vladimir. Russian women are pretty, sure, but not as beautiful as the
Colombian women.
Now back on topic. 20.86 at close today
Why is the spell checker in Spanish on an English language forum? I do not see where I have a choice. Not only this forum but also the bicycle
forum. How do you choose english as the language for the spel checker.
At 12.5 the lavanderia was 18 pesos for a wash
It went up to 20, then 22, then 28. Probably 30 or 32 now. The taco stand was 12 pesos for a long time. They attempted to bump it straight to 18,
that failed. So they want down to 14 then raised it every few months untill it hit 18.
Let us not forget to inter inflation into the peso per dollar thread. You get more pesos, but less for each peso.

From what I have seen benefits are dropping, salaries are stagnant, kids getting out of college aren't finding much opportunity.
And the big corporation are working hard to offshore professional positions, or replace high paid citizens with cheaper b1b visa workers.
Trump says he will fix this. But his business model seems to be the problem people are complaining about.
Mark my words, trump will bring back zero mfg jobs, and his watch will see companies to continue offshoring the remaining mfg in conus.

Is there a site that has a reliable MXN inflation gauge?
If you get paid in pesos, you're getting hurt and I'd take Hooks suggestion.
Everbody\'s preachin\' at me that we all wanna git to heaven, trouble is, nobody wants to die to git there.-BB King
Reality is what does not go away when you stop believing in it. -Philip K Dick
Nothing is worse than active ignorance. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe(1749-1832, German writer, artist and politician)
When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I\'ve never tried before. - Mae West

Anybody know what all that means?
Has the exchange rate matched inflation? Do you get more or less for a dollar? Not more pesos, but more supplies. If you change $100 in 2010, and
2016, witch batch of pesos would go further at the grocery store? have hotel prices go up by a 1/3 in that time?
Today the add is flashing, flashing adds keep people away from that page. People find other places to click where the add is not flashing.
Dont know what it wants to sell me.
weekend close, 20.8
