  1. You could say “Thanks for the information. Good to know.”
  2. Oh my god, dude. Grow up! You posted incorrect information that a restaurant is closed for good. Another poster informs you that you had gone before regular business hours — and even shares the place’s regular hours. This is your childish response to someone being helpful to you and informing others a restaurant is still in business?
  3. Perhaps I misunderstand. You would not move to Mexico because you can not drink lake water?
  4. I have enjoyed reading this thread. My advice is to live here or not. Move here because of the beauty of the area and the people. Don’t move here because you fear the feminization of bullfrogs. Argue over who knows more about the lake and who is or is not an expert. It really does not matter. The lake is here and it is beautiful. You can live the wonderful life offered here or play junior scientist and attempt to generate as much fear as you can. We shall all be dead soon enough. Lake Chapala will continue to exist as it has for thousands of years.
  5. I do not understand. What makes a city “real”?
  6. Your opinion has value but mine is vitriol? Really? You don’t like my opinion and I should move on. Got it.
  7. Just think if people like you who want to shop when you want to shop and explore and hit up restaurants and people would stay close to home during peak traffic times the people who have to work and spend hours sitting in traffic would be less tortured. But you want what you want when you want it so tough for them.
  8. Words matter. Say what you mean. Who is being “lorded over”? Some people don’t care if it is “the weekend” or not. They like to live their lives with a minimum of aggravation and traffic aggravates them. They can just as easily do what they want Monday through Friday. They choose what days they go out and about. They are not dictated to by the calendar. “Oh, it’s the weekend! I must go out and hassle traffic and deal with crowds because Weekend!” It is a lifestyle choice, not a civil rights issue.
  9. How do you translate “shop early” and “stay home weekends” into “being locked up all the time”?
  10. Food is delicious, service is great, setting and ambiance delightful, and prices fair. Highly recommend.
  11. If the sellers do not want to pay the commission of a broker to run the sale from their home and there is too much large furniture to be sold out of a bazarre then they are left to sell through ads placed on web boards or Facebook buy/sell sites and handle it all themselves. I am assuming donating the stuff is also not an option for them. Other than driving away and leaving everything behind I see no other options for them. I wish them the best of luck in disposing of their property.

    Turkey Fries

    I can not understand why you are having a problem finding in the central highlands of Mexico an obscure U.S. “treat” found only in the Midwest (and even there must be special ordered and is still “hard to get”).
  13. Speaking of store access, I went to Soriana yesterday. Walked in and shopped. Just like that. There were very few people shopping. Two registers open. One person checking out, and I went to the second register where the cashier was waiting for me. Everyone masked.
  14. So happy your dog is back! What a great community we live in.

    Chili Dog anyone?

    Now, THAT’S the spirit!
  16. You think no one else has told him he is wrong? My guess is he responds the way you do when someone tells you that you are wrong.

    Chili Dog anyone?

    Thank you, Rick. I love when people who have chosen to live in the central highlands of Mexico bitch about how food here is not as good as what they had in the country they came from. Sometimes they have not even tried it. They just look at the picture and commence criticizing.
  18. He is the governor and it is his responsibility — whether you think he is misguided or not. You may think you are (or actually be) smarter or better educated or more informed or anything else you care to think about yourself. You are not the governor and he is.
  19. Not sure what you want. Either you believe people are being denied entry to stores or you don’t. Either you decide to sit in your house for two weeks or you go out to do what you need to do. I don’t understand demanding details of an encounter from a poster you apparently have issues with.
  20. In addition to space and duration of contact you need to consider the viral load of your encounter. Even IF a person who is carrying the virus sneezed at exactly the second they walked past you (and, as Mostlylost pointed out, what are the chances of that happening?) the amount of virus in the droplets that you MIGHT inhale can easily be knocked out by your immune system. Nothing happens. Stand or sit a couple of feet away from an infected person for several hours, talking, laughing or maybe shouting, singing and the viral load you take in may overwhelm your immune system and you get sick.
  21. Have you ever considered not responding?
  22. “Most of us” don’t care about your feud with Happy (and numerous others). I read his stuff or don’t. Enjoy it or don’t. Agree with him or not. But, one thing I don’t do is constantly snark, snarl, snap, and spit at everything he posts. When you do, you exhibit how much power he has over you.
