  1. I heard one today and absolutely agree that the noise should be enough.
  2. One of my dogs was attacked yesterday by a huge muscled up pit bull. Fortunately he was relatively unscathed but I want to be prepared in case the occasion arises again. I know lots of people carry pepper spray but in a situation such as we experienced yesterday. I would have sprayed my dog as well. If I had had a stun gun, I would have been able to get him in the back and, hopefully, scare him off. All suggestions appreciated.
  3. If you haven't already gotten your ticket for the dinner after Thriller, you can stop by Zombie practice on Saturday from 1 to 3.  They are selling them there.

  4. It is easy enough to have a drain installed. We did it because the standing water was obnoxious and possibly attractive to mosquitoes.
  5. It is not a question of the providers accepting Medicare but, rather, that Medicare does not cover one out of the states. When we left we had a supplemental policy which covered one for the first 60 days out of the country. Not sure if all supplementals have that same condition but it did help us as my husband had some expensive medical needs during that time frame. We have a catastrophic coverage policy which we buy through a group policy offered by Focus on Mexico. Your choices increase the younger you are so make sure to investigate and not get shut out because you reached a certain age. Do not be deceived that some practices take Medicare. If they do they have a gimmick.
  6. If Vargas is the one who comes to the Ajijic Clinic beware.  My husband used him with very bad results and doesn't believe that he did the surgery himself.

  7. Vargas made my husband's eye worse rather then better.  Very bad experience.

      Hi there,

      Can you tell me which Dr. Vargas? My research shows there are two: Dr. Jose Alberto Vargas Silva and Dr. Jose Manuel Vargas Sarquis.  So confusing.

  8. Does anyone know this doctor, Karen Gonzalez, and have any thoughts as to her competency?
