      Regular inguinal herniorrhaphy only leaves a one to two inch scar a

    Not if you have a MONSTER hernia as other half did.  Laparoscopy totally not possible.  Normal incision with mesh insert left longer but excellent scar and recovery was without issues.. Hospital Pedro Loza in Guad ( cheap but clean and good)  General Surgeon did the work.

    I went today to GDL farmacia and they were sold out , will not have again till Jan 15, they will have both Pfizer and Monarda

    Did they tell you the price?  Would they have required a prescription like some stories said?  Pfizer Mexico rep was on TV new this a.m. saying they're working as hard and fast as they can to supply the overwhelming demand.  Better late than never.....

    The moral of that story is.... buy only for yourself.  🤣

    well, even for me since I buy extra of "x" for less trips, I want to be sure of what I paid        I carry around the list and note the prices for each on the shelves    then I can cross check later at home    but it IS an exercise!!

    For example, I recently purchased a bag of Kirkland dog food that had a sticker price on the bag as $923.  My receipt for the purchase showed $795.69 and at the bottom of the receipt was added IVA 16% of $127.31.  If you do the math, $795.69 + $127.31 = $923.00. 

    That's exactly how Costco store receipts are done too.  FRUSTRATING if you buy things for others as well as yourself, when you're trying to figure out later.

    You may have missed the fact that "they" do not have license plates on their toys. (I see them in my area and will add that they are nice toys to play with 😊).

    Maybe not on their  weekend toys.  But for sure on the BIG BOY vehicles they use when criminal intent is involved.

  6. My understanding is these are NOT the " ticketing" cameras.  They're used to see many things on multi-screens in various secure locations and used to verify what actually happened in accidents, robberies on streets/sidewalks etc., assaults, and a host of other things.  Can be used for evidence when determining fault in some cases. 

    Some may not know that recently at least 4 hidden locations were discovered where the BAD guys had their OWN systems in operation,  so they'd know what the cops were doing and could redirect baddies around goodies!!

      Anyone notice that no cameras were down in the municipio of Jocotepec?

    Actually Guad TV news this a.m. said San Juan Cosala and Joco both were affected, along with lakeside sites.  No doubt in their minds cartels did it. And anyone dumb enough to think this wasn't a co-ordinated assault better retreat into their cave and stay there.  Governor on TV this a.m. as well...... no doubt  all will be up and running again soon.     

    These cameras are "urban shield" and  can follow a license plate once it's captured, predicting destination and alerting cops ahead of same so they can trap the baddies. Cartels not happy campers that lakeside carretera is now linked to Guad system.

    1.  I never see any police patrols on the carretera.

    2.  Toppling these poles took many hours. WHERE WERE THE POLICE???

    1.. Never?  I see them on the carretera all the time.

    2.  Patrolling neighborhoods as they're supposed to do.

  9. Rick is right.  They'll get actual aguinaldo as part of pay packages so the date is not your concern.  HOWEVER, they usually put all the  money received into a communal pot and have a separate Christmas party among themselves ...... so it's a good idea to have it in their hands by about Dec 15. That way they can plan their fun before other family duties etc. interfere. 

     

  10. Another option is to make your Mexican will "world-wide", so any assets in U.S. become included.  You must specify this is a "universal will" to avoid complications from          other jurisdictions.  BUT check with each financial institution first, to be sure things can happen as you direct.

  11. It's been all over Guad news.  Purple flag is out while search is on for "the" shark   and to confirm if others are around. She was on a paddleboard, and most likely thinking is shark took her for  one of its preferred prey..... marine turtles, etc.  Extends to that whole bay plus around the corner  to the next one... I believe Cihuatlan.

    In my 20 years, I have never seen two days like Sunday and Monday at this time of the year.                                                                                 

    Nor have we in 25 plus        thermometer HAS been a lot lower in actual degrees, but cold high elevation air/ rain combined made it feel like "wind chill" from NOB days   Guad news this a.m. equated it to around 3C
