stupid tourist trick #1:
A couple of American women, drunk off their butts, get poured out of a taxi upon their arrival at a Mexican wedding. They stumble up the steps, beer bottles in hand, loudly proclaiming how handsome the groom is, and plop their empty beer bottles on the steps of the church on the way in. Que horror.
Bad house guest trick #1:
A room is offered to a friend in need as she had no where to stay. One day while she was out our little one, about two years old then, came trotting out of our guest room with a plastic baggie, asking us to open the candy for her. It was a chunk of crystal meth about the size of your fist. Futher inspection revealed a large duffle bag filled with an electric hot plate, pyrex glassware, iodine, coffee filters; the gal had a portable meth lab with her. Needless to say she was out on her keester pronto.
Bad house guest trick #2:
Another instance of a friend/relative in need. We got alot of that in Tijuana, folks from El Sur treated us like we were some kind of flop house they could stay at while they got enough money together to brinca la linea. Anyway, our little girl, 3 years old at that time, was playing with a neighbor girl, who was 5, in the house. They got quiet, which is a sure sign that kids are into something. We find them in the guest room playing with a loaded .45 caliber pistol that the guest had left out. We keep no firearms in the house as we realize that kids can get into ANYTHING. Another one out on his keester.
Bad house guest trick #3:
A lad shows up at our place to spend the night, on his way to Orange County from El Sur. The next morning he asked me for a ride since I was commuting there everyday. I agreed, let him know that he needs to have his ID ready for when we cross the border. He showed me his US birth certificate ,SS card, and California ID card. We got detained at the border, the US Justice department siezed my new car (the Nissan Sentra) , and 5 hours of questioning later they determined that, although the lad's documents were genuine, they weren't his. I never got my car back.
There is more: guests with mysteriously obtained large sums of cash, guests who stole light fixtures right out of the ceiling, guests who stole the neighbor's cable connection to watch the soccer games, guests who ran a hose to the neighbors washing machine and sold the water to them. Oh my, are we glad we are in the US where these folks can't find us!!!!!!!!
