Yep, it's Mexico, but it's not Puerto Vallarta. Think NW of PV.

I tend to disagree here. The only time I have done the dissapearing act is during night times, its a timezone things
For my last post also I never expected it to go on till today. I though it would take 12 hours at most
For example
Post 927: 12:20am ist
Roy gives the answer in post 934 at 1:06am
1:24am I acknowledge.

After this I make the trishul submission
Post 1066 :1:47am
I go to sleep, and in morning replay at 8:56am
2:30 hours later I again reply
Then I go and watch harry potter
So total 5 hours break and then I reply
My last reply was 6 hours ago.
So I think the max I dissapeared was for 6 hours just once, other than that its just the timezone thing.
I am 12 hours ahead of those of you in california fellas. So when I go to sleep your day starts!
I will try to post a pic if possible in my mornings so that we have a 15 hour window.

Methinks we touched a nerve somewhere!:lol:

Ding! Ding! Close enough...

This is actually a little town about 30 miles south of Tijuana called Alta Tapia.

The building in the center there with the green door is the outhouse. It's the nicest one in the neighborhood because it has a light, and a fan. In the evening the light is useful, but the fan doesn't do much!

The water system brings water into the homes, but there is no septic system. And the water is not drinkable. See the blue basin in the middle of the photo? That's someone's drinking water. A truck comes through about every other week and fills the basins with drinking water. Gravity brings it into the house.

And what really gets me is, while they don't have running water that is potable, and there isn't a septic system to speak of, and many of these folks make less in one year than I do in a month (and I ain't rich)... look right next to the outhouse... Yep, that's a Satelite Dish! They don't have much, but they have 183 channels to choose from.
