If any of you have seen the movie, well, it hits home rather often in the border town of Juarez.

Here's a headline story:

Check out the list of "related headlines" in the blue column to the right of the story.

Makes one want to go down & enjoy some fine shopping and entertainment South of the Border, huh?

I think the Mexico Tourist Bureau needs to rattle some chains.

What they need is a president that isn't corrupt and will kill all the drug dealers big enough to die.

So far it's not crossed over too badly, but as of now, I've not lost anything in Mexico I need to go back for.
 
" This countrys hard on people."
That flick was twisted. I must be a sick bastard. I went to see it twice when it came out. The first time by myself, right after we buried pop in Jan of 08. He died New Years eve 07. I was in a strange state of mind anyway then. The second time I took the wife. When we were leaving she says.
" Why did you bring me here to see this chit!" "What? I thought you would like it! I liked it." You guys living down there really do live in the wild west. You guys must really be aware of your suroundings wilst hunting. Grizz
 
That's why my M-4 rides in the truck all the time. locked and loaded. if Barbara's going with me through the countryside, usually hers is in there too.

The author of No Country for Old Men is an outstanding American novelist.I would recommend Cormac McCarthy to anyone contemplating reading a good book. He does not dissapoint. The Road is the book to read.
 
I agree HB. He also penned "All the Pretty Horses".

He's a good one. Lives in El Paso, I think, so he's seen what he writes about.
