  1. Don´t you know some people were born with the inalienable "right" of never being wrong, and somehow wound up posting on this obscure forum.
  2. The difference mainly was getting a line when the government owned it. You had to buy it from someone who was leaving and would sell and then the bidding war started. The payment went to the previous owner of the line and Telmex didn´t get anything except the service charge for changing address and ownership of the line. I waited 5 years to get a line that wasn´t terribly overpriced and still wound up paying about 4,000 USD for it through the "Black Widow". I´m sure you newer residents have probably heard all the stories about her, and no I wasn´t one of her major victims (Graciás a Dios), just a minor one. LOL I think service was pretty good as there were a lot less lines and no internet. Phones would go out once in a while during storms in the rain season.
  3. NOPE!!!! You are allowed to have an opinion and make comments about "yourself"....LOL
  4. The usual negative commentary from the perfect world seeker.
  5. Same here, never have had a problem in 35 years of service with the same number, just the upgrades as they happened. So my Telmex is excellent. Do you think it´s because of the year we were born.....LOL
  6. Yes, but something tells me they are coming.............
  7. Never ate it, never heard of it, but it says long grain and wild rice. What´s so bad about that? And why would they add chemicals to rice?
  8. La Barca is much smaller than Guadalajara and you don´t have to go anywhere near the big city.
  9. As usual.........Mexico....WOLF! WOLF! WOLF! Mexico.......WOLF! WOLF! WOLF! To the ad nauseam .........When will your Grandpa Jim let you have some rest? Will he ever be placated? ?
  10. Finally, a piece of sense in a thread of total nonsense. Same here, never needed a reservation and they have excellent molcajetes. A lot of people want to make the thread about Peter, besides himself.
  11. ldrews???.......He´s the LAST person you want to make a bet with...HAHAHA
  12. Pete, no problem here for me either, but as you know, I have "inside" help. 😀 😀 😀
  13. No he doesn´t ........... Both 54 and 80 are free roads and 80 is faster. done them both a 100 times. 54D is a toll road and is faster and has only been there for the last 20 years or so. 54 is still there in some fashion or the other.
  14. It´s worse than pathetic, this person promoting the idea that Covid 19 is a nothing burger. A blind ostrich with their head in the sand. I think a lot of this nay saying has to do with people putting their financial health ahead of their, or anybody else´s physical health. But carryon as your reduced activity will help keep your physical health stay in line with your financial health. You don´t have to die to suffer the effects of the virus, a lot of people have lived through it and their quality of life is a lot less for quite some time. The effects linger on for it seems, forever.
  15. There are always the toilet paper buyers with any bad news from tsunamis to beef prices to Santa Claus doesn´t really exist. Now I have to get rid of some toilet paper to make space for the beef.
  16. So true, and I think most people know which glove they wear, not so much what the other person is wearing.
  17. At least 6 that I knew and they knew me, one who was associated with the company that owns this forum sight. At least two of them were foreign born. Probably more, just can´t remember them all. Why do you ask and what will you do with the information, even if it is totally reliable?
  18. Hey Kiddo, was my sarcasm that well concealed? LOL
  19. I´m glad you did too, and that is really helpful news and advice for all the people that got their first shot in Ajijic or Chapala. Of course, you never were concerned or asked questions about getting the vaccine on this board or any other before you casually dropped into the Pfizer shots.
  20. Will there be a second shot in those pueblos??? Maybe in two weeks if it is going to happen.
  21. Not a Cuevas family, just one particular Cuevas....Ferrnando Cuevas. One Cuevas family from SJC are my consuegros.
