Baja info - mordida attempt #20
I've been pulled over so many times it's comical. Once I was pulled over when coming back from fishing in December, only to be pulled over (without) yak by the same cops two weeks later. I recognized them, they me - vamos!
Monday morning I hit the border after a weekend of fishing. I was pretty tired and grumpy because I had the smallest WSB in the group I cut thru a side street to get a straight shot at the single lane into the border. It's the street that goes past the Smart and Final. I "pinch negra lobo" that's local for the black police cars pulls up along side. The girl rolls down her window. ratero "are you ok?" me "sure" r "borach?" m "cansado" r " pull over for inspecion" This fat bitch and her stupid partner begin to go thru my stuff. Typical questions and I'm pissed. She trys to separate me from the guy searching the front by asking me to come to the back. I tell her no I'll watch him search and then when he's done we will go to the back. Open the back and WHEEEEWWW Adi's trash stinks. Door closed quickly. I'm still pissed and they know it the way a slam the doors and get in their face. The guy says "you fish Mexico alot" me "hell yeah" I start rattling off names of places these idiots never heard of. guy "catch fish" me "yup - GRANDE CORVINA cabron" guy "you have fishing license for Mexico" I've never been asked for my license never never never. I walk to the from and get my license. He shows it to the fat c***. They have never seen a license vamos smelly dirty pinche gringo!!! No mordida |

lol
I thought we had it bad by getting the slowest line on the border and being harassed about the 36 pack of beer we brought back... the gift for Senor Jose, but we never saw him... The customs officer asked me when I was naturalized and I couldn't remember the freaken'' year... It's funny how they're checking... I was driving on our way to San Carlos. We get stopped on customs check point - I talk to them with my thick European accent... Then they ask Mike Knott and Andy where they were born, and they don't ask me a thing... You go figure.

I got stopped going in to Gonzaga bay years ago with a gringo buddy who speaks fluent spanish and this guy's brother-in-law. I can follow along all right in espanol. Any way this Mexican Marine Sargent, armed to the teeth and speaking 0 english, starts to give my buddy the usually questions. Got drugs? caring guns? where are you going? where are you from? what's in the back of the truck? Were surrounded by a whole squad of marines with not one smile in the bunch when the Sargent gets to the question, what are your names? I'm tense but fairly cool as things are going smoothly. My buddy, in the same casual tone he's been using all along says, "mi llamo Copper, mi amigo Miguel, y mi cunado Dick Love". Of coarse his bro-in-law isn't named Dick Love. All the tention I had been storing up clashed with the totally hilarious, completely unexpected, and shockingly f'n stupid response my buddy made. The result was I let out sort of an exploding laugh, cough, bark, sob sort of sound and then bit down on my knuckles about as hard as I could to keep from either laughing or punching my buddy. I got a funny look from the Sarg. and off we went. Most check point tales aren't so funny or so stupid but I wanted to share. Of coarse my buddys's bro-in-law was Dick Love or Vierga amor for the rest of the trip. Mike

that's $180 pesos? otherwise you were screwed. Next time just ask for the ticket. When they say we go to judge, say ok. There's no judgfe for speeding tickets or any traffic violations. Just accidents, dui, weapons and other serious crimes.
