I have some arthritis in my hip and use a hiking stick when I walk. I will be going through the TSA in my next air trip and suspect they will look askance at my stick as a possible weapon. Any information on how TSA deals with issues like this and any solutions?

A few days ago, I noticed that the rental bulletin board at the LCS is plastered with rentals (both long and short-term) at reasonable rates. ($550-750 for studios and 1 br, etc.) I don't know if the original poster has anyone who can check for him/her and pass on the information, but it might be worth it.

Thanks, everyone, for your quick responses. The page from Conecciones seems to have all the answers I needed. It is very explicit and hopefully should be easy to use. I am very glad it came from the Consulate itself, which means that it is probably as accurate as I can get. However, anyone who tries to download that page to print it out, as we did, should understand something., Although the page is marked as "15" it is actually pg. 21 because, when a printer (at least mine) counts pages, it will count all the pages, marked or not. Just check to see what page your printer screen says you are on and tell it to print that one. Word to the wise.

My wife needs to renew her passport, which expires this November 2023. We need some information about how to do this. For example: 1. We plan to mail the applications, rather than use the on-line service, because the official website says the on-line services have been on pause since March and there is no indication when they will be back up again. We have downloaded all the forms but don't know how we can pay the $130 fee. Can we do it by check? If we can pay it by credit card on-line, how is that done? 2. Where do we send the materials? We have a Laredo mailing address through Handy Mail and the official website says people with addresses in Texas should send their applications to an address there. However, when I called the Guad. Consulate the woman there talked about sending the application packet to the consulate. She also said that we should include in our mailing a "pre-paid" envelope with our Mexican address. "Pre-paid" for how much? However, the website says they won't send the renewed passport to a Mexican address. The information the consulate woman was giving me was so contradictory to what the official website says that I don't know who to believe. We can't believe how difficult and confusing they have made all this. Has anyone submitted their passport for renewal this year? How did you resolved these issues? Are there any lawyers or facilitators here at Lake Chapala that might assist us? Any other advice?

Some years back there was a computer user group for those with Apple computers. Is anything like that still in existence? If so, where and when does it meet? Thanks in advance for any info.

i'm looking for a good hematologist who can be accessed in the Lake Chapala area. One person suggested so far is Dra. Lluvia Sosa, who is based in Guadalajara but visits at Chapala Med. I have a bit of written biography, but I'd appreciate any feedback from someone who has actually seen her and hopefully had a good experience. Also, any other suggestions of hematologists with whom people have had personal experience. Contact info included please.

I need a case w/attached keyboard for my Mac Mini iPac2. The one I have from Zagg has a cracked hinge where the case and the keyboard meet, Don’t know how much longer it will last. Anyone have one you are willing to part with for a reasonable price, or know of a good source? Doesn’t need to be a Zagg, just needs to be functional and fit my iPad.
