Maybe someone will recognize the author? "Mazatlan was just beginning to be the acid heads' favorite spot on the Mexican west coast. It wasn't a place the real hardcore tourists were onto yet. They went down the coast to Acapulco, generally. At the same time Mazatlan wasn't so unbearably Mexicali...sad... like the true Acid Central of Mexico, Ajijic, on Lake Chapala. Those poor sad Lake Chapala villages, lily-pad scum mud showing and failed American aesthetes padding around earnestly in sandals, 48 year old bohos sucking up to young heads of the new generation of Hip. Very sad. It is truly a sad thing when an American boho says f---k this and picks up and leaves this f--king tailfin and shopping plaza and war-crazy civilization and goes to live among real people, the honest folk-type folk, in the land of Earth feelings, Mexico, and the hell with tile baths - and then he sits there, in Mexico, amid the hunkering hardcheese mestizos, and man, it is honest and real here...and just as miserable as hell, and he is a miserable aging f-kup with no place else to go. But Mazatlan - the head scene there was a happy thing and a groove. So she [Black Maria] sat down in Mazatlan and wrote her mother a Beautiful People letter..." I read that and ROFL :) Retirement Communities http://www.retirecommunities.com
