Actuall...Thanks, Don Gringo, for pointing that out. Actually, only three of my reviewed websites have turned up "muerto", so I deleted them from the list (though their reviews are still on the blog).Ellen Fieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05054237839405223675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22114177.post-1159282954208504072006-09-26T10:02:00.000-05:002006-09-26T10:02:00.000-05:00Why are most of your archive links dead?I like wha...Why are most of your archive links dead?<BR/><BR/>I like what you write but am stomped for MORE.<BR/><BR/>d<BR/>http://tuxtlas.com/blog/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22114177.post-1159256643362640282006-09-26T02:44:00.000-05:002006-09-26T02:44:00.000-05:00My damn dog...She jumped the fence to nuzzle me an...My damn dog...<BR/><BR/>She jumped the fence to nuzzle me and hid below my bed. From previous eperience that means MAJOR rain in Catemaco.<BR/> <BR/>I now have a copy of that infamous "LAGUNA CATEMACO no es contaminada"<BR/> <BR/>If you want a copy for your grandchildren to laugh at, please send 500 pesos to www.dematac.org.<BR/> <BR/>Dematac's abuelo really needs it.<BR/> <BR/>Meanwhile I checked the Catemaco News and clicked on Blogs<BR/> <BR/>Blogging is relatively new to Mexico., but growing exponentially. <BR/> <BR/>There is a Mexican Bog Recorder that lists most Mexican blogs, mostly in Spanish<BR/>http://www.blogsmexico.com/directorio/listado_estados.php?estado=Veracruz<BR/> <BR/>And it is painfully obvious, that reading most of these mostly Spanish blogs, is an invasion of kiddy privacy.<BR/> <BR/>Now for the Mexican disculpa: The percentage of these infantile blogs is probably similar to US blogs.<BR/>And in either country it is damn difficult to find one that is worthwhile reading.<BR/> <BR/>As for English writing/speaking blogs about Mexico, they also blossom. Most devote themselves to a vacation period. But there are others concentrating on more in depth blogging about their surroundings and experiences.Ironically, there are now so many of these blogs, that the English/Mexican blogs now have an editorial site describing their qualities:<BR/>http://mexico-in-english.blogspot.com/ - selected English sourced blogs of Mexico.<BR/> <BR/>I may be one of those of people that the infamous Doug Bowers quotes as "You want to help drive up the prices of real estate until no Mexicans living or who have ever lived could possibly afford to live in their own town?". <BR/> <BR/>As opposed to those who want to convert the catholics of Hueyapan to envangelism, or the recipients of Federal, State and Municipal handout recipients to taxpayers, or those that want to celebrate each event of the Mexican indigenous culture as something economically significant if it were not for tourism.<BR/> <BR/> Of those there are almost no websites. They are hidden in deep dark closets.<BR/> <BR/>Wanna buy a piece of the bridge I'm building to Bahia Escondida?<BR/> <BR/>cheap, reserve your space now!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
