Everyone-

Send as a gift, so he doesn't get hit with higher paypal fees.

Also, RMO, when completed, you may want to remove your email address so the spambots don't get it.

I was hoping to find a route that would be beautiful and allow me to experience the culture but could also get me through at a reasonable speed.

Since you're in Austin, you have plenty of time to make practice runs into Mexico.

The money will go into my PP account and I will make an ATM withdrawal from my bank account and give Sara the cash at my last class on Friday. If any of you know better than this let me know and I will correct accordingly. I can't wait to take her picture on Friday and post it here.

Muchas gracias a todos. Muy generoso!

David,
I just sent some funds. Its not a lot, but if a bunch of us chip in it'll help Sara. Thanks for doing this. It's too bad, but are scumbags everywhere.

Whilst I was thinking about this; Mrs. Ace and I will be in Puerto Vallarta for two weeks pretty soon and while she's laying on the beach reading, I thought I might do something productive. To that end does anyone know of any language schools. We'll be staying in the old part of PV in what's known as the Zona Romantica. I usually spend my time down there walking around the city or sometimes rent a scooter. This time I might exercise some brain cells.

Tulsa, 8 days into the year, 8 murders.

Is Tulsa safe?

It's ok. We have an open carry law now. Strap one on and rub dirt on your face. No one will test you.

rockymountainoyster · 01-09-2013, 10:02 PM

Thanks to all, most recently Steve in Cuernavac, who has never met me or Dona Sara but he reached out most generously. Don't call me a wus but this brought tears to my eyes. It bespeaks of the culture I have found here in Mexico and is, I think, a reflection of the attitudes of those of you who call this place home. I salute all of you.
