Or . . . if crumbs of Bimbo bread from his lips . . . last forever.

Are you referring to OJ (Simpson) who has been sitting in jail for six years?

Is there a search going on now? Hopefully we get some info from LL and/or the Family. The trail must surely be very cold by now. Hopefully a few clues are uncovered. Tio

The purpose of the orange juice comment relates to the difference of opinion as to how long the truck had been at the found location.

Hey, this post is now the most replied to post in the history of Nomaddom. :biggrin:

I wonder if the number of pages can handle triple digits?

Freshly squeezed OJ in Baja will begin to ferment within a day in a vehicle if not refrigerated/cooled.....that crap that they sell in bottles is like Tang and refuses to degrade.....ever :light:


Doc and juice theorists: what kind of juice was it?

It is most likely the vehicle was dumped there without Gary....but this is like most of the comments....idle speculation :light:

why doesn't someone check the expiration date on the OJ container? and if you don't happen to have the container handy, then just make up a date!

State of Gary Patton's Car in Cataviña


We were in Cataviña yesterday and we stopped to check out Gary Patton's car and to take photos of it. The left rear (driver's side) tire on the car is the spare tire. It looks like Gary must have gotten a flat tire somewhere. The flat tire is inside the car, upright, behind the front passenger seat.

The left front driver's side tire is currently flat.

The rear window is closed. Inside the car is an orange boogie board on top of a surf board; his pack; cooler; clothes and personal gear. The right side back door is unlocked!

There was no one at the police station ~ it was closed up.

No one at the hotel knew the name of the rancher who had found the car. When the Patton family members come down, best thing to do is to have the cops show you the spot from which it was towed at the ranch. Have the rancher show you where the car was found. No doubt the cops will need gas money.

See my post about their ambulance!

Wow Marla incredible that the back door was open. Seems to me that vehicle is just begging for the family to rummage through it and find clues. You know people here are right, the guessing game is a waste of time without solid evidence, probably an inventory could have been done on the vehicle initially, and a search party later. But with no one getting down there that has authority to go through the vehicle and with the back door open, who knows who has rummaged through what and taken things. It's an 8 hour drive from Orange County where the family lives and this inventory and organization of a search party could be done on a long weekend. Unless we know what for sure is in the vehicle and dates of expiration etc. no one here can make a solid guess. This mystery begs the assistance of the family at this point.

another of life's little mysteries. unfortunately, the truth will never be told unless some drug-crazed zombie spills his guts to save his soul-what are the chances of that?

Unfortunately Woody, without no more to go on and nobody driving down here and doing a concrete inventory the trail has gone cold. All of these ideas, the underwear, the orange juice expiration date are excellent but without answers to these questions, people are wasting their time and spinning their wheels. There is only so much Nomads can do and getting into the car and inspecting is obviously not one of them. Marla was kind and good enough to make the valiant effort but she had no access.

FWIW, if the family ever does get out to the ranch and can make it to the campo at san jose ask for Sra Mercedes and her son Israel. they will have any info to be had from local gossip.
