There's plenty of "real" Mexican there too, but that's not what most
American and wannabe American tourists want because then it wouldn't be just
like back home.

Try Pacal, Hacienda El Mortero, or even La Casa de las Margaritas, and
you'll find a Mexican menu completely devoid of stuffed jalapeρo poppers.

A friend of mine lives in Puerto Aventuras. He and his girlfriend help
us with the menu. Mostly we eat grouper. He tried to get some ceviche
last time but they weren't serving it. I'm not sure it's true Mexican
but some of the local people I know seem to favour it.

Who said I was trying to be witty?
I said Alan was, & I was trying to understand why Alan seems so sad
that his life long fulfillment is to come to a site like this & act
like an ass, being rude,
If you go back to the start, I believe these sites are for people to
make comments & share an opinion, (right or wrong) & I replied to a
post that was in a site relating to scuba diving, The post was blaming
an airline for loosing baggage, I guess the person who posted this had
no idea how things work in an airport so I explained, then you have
people like Alan & you who then attack like, a man who comes to a fight
that is finished & then kicks the unconscious guy on the ground,
(He was unconscious before you arrived though, incase you didn't get
that part)
I am assuming you are in the same sad state of mind as Alan this would
be why you feel the need to come to his rescue, if you were any better
or different to Alan, & all those other lifeless individuals who come
to these sites to prove a point, the point being you don't have a
clue, like some other guy in here called Dennis (Icarus) who asks have
you heard of Google, even though this is a Google room, this is what I
mean by saying Clueless, not smart, dumb, uneducated, it is a shame
that there is so many people like you in the world, if this is what
your life is for, coming in to a room to be an asshole, then why not
just commit suicide, no one will miss you, & you will provide business
to the local funeral parlor, reduce the population on the world, cut
down on garbage production, & leave more food for other people to eat,
can you see the benefits the removal of your wasted bag of bones would
provide the rest of us?

So why not give it a try?

Default Re: Air New Zealand and Air Qantas ground Handlers at Brisbane Air Port. Did they Still my luggage?

You were saying there is something called a "Search Engine"
What kind of car is it in & where do you buy them?
Do you require a license to drive them & how do you actually manage to
fit in it to drive it around through the small cables & chips in the
computer, & the internet?

Now you are probably scratching your head to work out if I am serious,
I was asking about the Rules of netiquette for Rec.scuba, I am guessing
the addresses you posted would generalize for all Usenet threads,

And as for treating people like they are stupid, I keep asking for
people who do this, people like you, you said
"When you're looking for information, something called a "Search
Engine" is what you want to use."

So do you really get kicks from this, or are you just really new to the
net (short for internet) & would like to show your new found Knowledge
with the world?

Or are you really Just Stupid?

There is an old saying, "Treat people how you want to be treated"

So in your case have you passed the potty stage? Are you using a toilet
yet?
Or do you still wear nappies (AKA diapers depending where in the world
you are) (AKA = Also Know As)

Or do you just have such a meaningless life this is how you make your
self feel like a worth while human?

If you answered yes to the last question, you should try using your new
found tool
"the search engine" & look for tips & ways to end the waste of a
life you have,

Another thing you said,
>Finally, please be aware none of us are in any way obligated to be at
> your beck and call to answer any/all of your questions, nor are we in
> any way obligated to assure that we're actually correct. In other

> irregularly provided...


I never thought you were obligated to be at my beck & call,
I never expected it to be correct; if I did I would be in the stupid
club too,
I also didn't ask for advice, just where to find what I was being
asked if I had read,
For advice I would go to a site where people went as they actually
participate in the subject of what the site is about,

I wouldn't go to a site for telling jokes if I wanted advice on
skydiving locations, would I?

But thank you for the advice you gave, it was like you said it was
free, so worth nothing, but I was moved you took time to share your
discovery of "the search engine" with us all.............. DB

PS If you are still trying to work out if I know what a "Search
Engine" is then type "Commit Suicide" in there, it might help you
out of your sad & sorry state.

(Also You might have to try a bit harder but it is a push in the right
direction)

Er, Dennis, you missed analyzing diverbug, a compound word formed from
the two words "diver" and "bug". Means he thinks he's already a diver, and
he's learning to be a pest.
