I enjoy pretty much every sport when I play with friends and sometimes strangers. Football, beach volleyball and field hockey are my top 3 favourites though.
But I always tried various other sports like Lapta or relativly recently (2 years ago already Oo;) Jugger.
No serious engagements though, just peeking in for the fun.

Did you play handball? I wish that would become popular in the US.
Mhh I don't think I ever played it normally. I just remember throwing some nearly handball-sized balls (originally a mini-football by McDonalds from the world cup 1998 (France))at a handball-sized goal (beach football goal) on vacations 4 years ago together with 5 strangers. So no dribbling was possible.

I knew someone who played it in a club, but all I heard were injury stories...

Edit: Oh the Free-kick video by Mjelde was taken down, damn FIFA <-<;

During one of my brother's racist diatribes the other day, I compared the USD to MXN using a "Rent me!" ad on the back of a U-haul pick-up at Lowe's, $19.95 USD converted to like 311~ MXN using a currency converter. What I'm wondering is if stuff in Mexico is really really cheap for us or really really high or them.

Basically if a Dr. Pepper here costs $2.99 USD, does it cost 46.08 MXN?

This is one of the real boons of consulting work. The presence of signed contracts limits that kind of drama.

Sucks that your boss doesn't have your back, though.
2 bosses + upper management.

2nd boss isn't involved in this, and just told me to watch out on the future, to have upper management ask him about these kind of projects before they come to me.

>got tell QWEWQ he is full of ***
<go tell DSAFAA to stuff it!

You'd think they'd have bigger concerns right now than YouTube copyright violations.

Everywhere I went they accepted USD, so I have no clue. I remember Coronas (bottle) were only $1.

I find it odd that despite have real sugar and being in an actual glass bottle, soda from Mexico is almost half the price of their HFCS, plastic bottle counterparts.

Mexico at least has better soda, you just have a higher chance of being kidnapped, killed, and drugs smuggled in/on your corpse on your way to buy one. /shrug

honestly, just depends on what city you go to.

Quote:
The number of kidnappings throughout Mexico is of particular concern and appears to be on the rise. According to statistics published by the Mexican Secretaria de Gobernacion (SEGOB), in 2013 kidnappings nationwide increased 20 percent over the previous year. While kidnappings can occur anywhere, according to SEGOB, during this timeframe, the states with the highest numbers of kidnappings were Tamaulipas, Guerrero, Michoacán, Estado de Mexico, and Morelos. Additionally, according to a widely publicized study by the agency responsible for national statistics (INEGI, the National Institute of Statistics and Geography), Mexico suffered an estimated 105,682 kidnappings in 2012; only 1,317 were reported to the police. Police have been implicated in some of these incidents. Both local and expatriate communities have been victimized. More than 130 kidnappings of U.S. citizens were reported to the U.S. Embassy and consulates in Mexico between January and November of 2014.
I'd like to mention to avoid Ciudad Juarez and Tijuana.
if you stand out, odds go bad.

Costco
I hear it... The light pitter-patter of purple shoes, I can already hear it... Kali, talking about the great deal she got on Dameion's hot pockets at Costco.

"Why don't you shop at Costco, Kojo?"
"You can get good deals there, Kojo."
"I don't like black olives on pizza, Kojo!"

WHY?! Because there are no Costco where I live, Kali! That's why!!

*weeps softly* DON'T *** TOUCH ME! ; ;

Well, you're in San Diego. I'm really curious as to whether you all had the same goofy, youthful delinquency game of chicken when it came to underage drinking south of the border? Is that a "thing" in Cali too?

EDIT: Where do *** drunks go in New Mexico and Arizona? BUM BUM BUM!

My friends and I tried that once and we were very disappointed

We soaked the ball and set it on fire but then when we kicked it it all just kinda... fell off lol

Packs of english muffins for $0.25 Sure, they expired yesterday, but I'll just pop them in the freezer and it's fine. As long as they're not moldy they're 100% fine lol.
