Kim Campbell is amazing, but is often booked way out. Okay to message me for ideas about how to reach her. 

I'd also recommend Karren Louise.

I did message you.  However, why not just post the information right here?

I have searched the forum and there are recommendations and comments about different professionals, however, some of those date back to 2015 and the not much recent.

If anyone has any recommendations from recent experience, I'd appreciate it.

Question.. When you buy a "new" mattress or topper from them has it been used by someone else for a few days? Or do they sell returned items as used?

I cannot answer that question as I don't know.  My impression is that they have some things that are loaners.

The owners of this store really know what customer service is and the rest of Mexico should learn from them.  If you are in need of a mattress, they will give you one to try for a few days, no money up front.  If it does not work out, returning no problem.  If you need a mattress topper for it to try out, they will lend you that as well at no cost.  Really nice people, owner and brother.

Anyone have a parallel cable I could borrow for a short time?  I need it to check the function of an older printer.

Let's be straightforward about this:  This board has both far right and far left members posting.  Their biases show clearly, and there is nothing wrong with people having differing opinions, so long as they maintain civility.  Unfortunately, too many of these posts have degenerated into slugfests.  How about us aiming to disagree, agreeably, instead?

I agree. It does not matter your political leaning.  Courtesy and respect of others is what matters.

Go sleep somewhere else.  No one wants to hear your snoring.  This little posting is like what an immature teenager would do.

As I have said before "attack the subject, not the person".  It does not matter which side a person is on politically.  The topic had to do with masks, not about politics.  Why do we always have to check to see how the source leans politically in order to feel that it is acceptable?  I think it's insane to do that. 

I posted something a while back from a reputable Houston doctor and his medical opinion on the vaccines. This physician has been around for a really long time and had a radio show.   Immediately, someone looked up his background, and as soon as he saw that he was a conservative and his related involvements, he was discredited.  That was hogwash and had nothing do with his medical credentials or medical opinion, but this is what it's come to.  It reminds me of when Christians were hunted down for whatever they did, just because of their religious beliefs.  This is where society is going....total intolerance towards those who disagree.  Very frightening. 

And quite frankly, I don't know who is moderating this Boards, but it seems that no one really is.  We are supposed to have a Code of Conduct on this Board, yet it is not enforced.  Posters get away with insulting each other and being snippy.  It's high schools all over again.  No adult supervision.

Don't how that is trashing anything.

You know what bores me? Unbelievably long personal screeds, especially when they contribute nothing. Like your comment.

But what you just wrote is a serious contribution......you are not polite.

I made no statement in reference to the original post.  I posted a peer reviewed paper from a government site and suggested only that one draw their own conclusions.  There is plenty more out there on this topic both pro and con.

Assuming one is a proponent of anything for simply posting something about it is jumping to conclusions.

Cats, TOB has run off all the dissenters.  The same folks would like to do that here as well.  It is easy to have "manners" when everyone agrees with you.  It is unfortunate that the holders of a certain ideology just can't handle dissent without getting personal and nasty but that is just how it is these days.  

Totally agree.  Some just can't tolerate something that disagrees with their opinion, so they criticise the poster instead of the topic.

Very good. Crystal clear now.

I am not lazy or dyslexic.  I saw the address, however, the location was still unclear to me as it mentions La Floresta and Ajijic.  A point of reference is helpful such as the fact that it is near the Telmex Office.

Sonoran rib- eye are available at Los 3 Butchery.  We buy it there and happyjillin has posted that they buy it there too.

los3butchery@gmail.com  Carretera Oriente 117c La Floresta, Ajijic 11-5,  376 688 4142

I am unclear on the location.  Is in by La Floresta or is it in Ajijic?

Thank you both.

Any recommendations for a printer repair person?

Zeb, it would be interesting to know how many customers who buy the Doctor's products have gotten Covid-19.

I am not sure how that is relevant unless he is promoting them as a cure and I did not see that in his article. 

Also, based on your comment no physician should ever give any opinion unless he/she could spend money on a research team.  My understanding is doctor see patients and get data from labs and places that specialize in the research, and THAT is where owand h they get their data to formulate their opinions and how they advise their own patients.

A very unscientific approach to immunology. An effective vaccination boosts your immunity to this virus which is unknown to your immune system so in the event you come into contact with this highly contagious virus you are in good shape already to fight it, obviously. What simple understanding experts know confuses you?

Seems to be a lot of this going on.

 

Nowhere my post did I claim that I had found special research on line that doctors and scientists missed.   I simply posted an article written by a physician based on his opinion and expertise.  Obviously, you want to make fun of what I did and it seems, for you, if I had posted an article which spoke of the medication favorably, you would be fine with that.

I don't think that would make a good base line research criteria.  He is providing data he obtained from other sources and certainly the 40,000 he mentions is worthy of paying attention.  I did not see anywhere he claimed that buying his products would cure covid, so I don't think tha

And the pharmaceutical companies spent millions (probably billions) doing the research and testing. How much did Dr Hotzi (is that his real name?) spend???

You are free to disagree with his medical expertise and opinion.  He may not have his personal research team, however, I am sure he has access to research done by others as almost all doctors do.  Most doctors in private practice use data from other researchers as well.

This post not only is full of incorrect and misleading "opinion" content, it has no place in the lakeside / Guad forum, either.     

Both the OP and the "Moderator" should know that and it should be removed.

The Queen has been vaccinated, as have many world leaders.      Nothing is "perfect".....but even the Astra Zeneca vaccine, just approved by Health Canada has been shown to be 100% effective in preventing hospitalizations and deaths.     Both in the trials, and in real world use.     And THAT is the goal, at least in this near term.

"Stop The Spread".....of false, misleading, and alarmist conspiracy "info".

A differering medical opinion does not mean it is automicatically  misleading.  Otherwise, it is censorship of anyone who does not agree with media reporting.

Clearly,this doctor/business man's main "activism" is to promote his business, is what I "understood" when I researched him as gringohombre did.

And the pharmaceutical companies are also promoting their businesses and want to sell the injections.
