Baja Ha Ha Golf Tournament
#14. A special thank you to our Golf Sponsors. This is the
first year with sponsors for our
Tournament. With twenty individual and business sponsors we
will be able to provide
more scholarships this year.
Harold Williams and
his team of Gordon Rozon, Frank Belk and Steve Ricker were
the
winners of the play off between the Desert and Ocean
Courses. Harold was delighted to
take home his first win and trophy after playing in the
tournament for the 5th time. See
the winners photo taken at the BBQ dinner. Please let Cheryl
know who you are in the
photo because 3 winners left before the playoff and two
players may not yet know that
Harold made the winning shot to clinch the win for his team!
See photo at site below.

Another Email Phishing Scam

Dear HughesNet User,

We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your

The phony link leads to some clueless person's hacked web
site at:
http://bingyang.com/books/extras/taxes/webmail/hughes-webmail/HughesNet%20Webmail.php
(page content has since changed). Notice that, although the
scammer inserted the word "hughes" in a couple of places to
try and disguise the phony link, the .com part of the link
is "bingyang.com,"
not "HughesNet.com."
Again, look closely for the spelling, capitalization and
punctuation errors. There are at least six, and they're a
dead giveaway this is a scam. Companies like HughesNet,
Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, Facebook, your bank, etc., will never
send you such Emails. - Alan,

ROAD REPORTS
Courtesy of
Ventana.View@gmail.com - Our neighbors to the north
Regarding Border wait times. People should be aware even
Otay Mesa and Tecate can have long border wait times. I
have been sitting in a endless row at Tecate before for 1.5
hours. I have never seen the main TJ crossing (san Ysidro)
to be shorter than Otay Mesa, and have checked the DHS
website many times over the years. Just looked at 9:15 pm
tonight, and as listed San Yisdro, 1.7 hours, Tecate 40
minutes, Otay Mesa 50 minutes. I have had this site link
listed since 2009, at
www.la-ventana.info then ::Mexico::travel::by
Land::border crossing info DHS current wait times. If
you have a wireless card or internet phone, just check
online before you decide which you are going to take. The
McDonalds by the walmart in Ensenada has free wi-fi if you
are ready for a break before you move on. dean

Beer Brats and Chili-Cheese Dogs were invented in Ireland a

none of that interests you, please join us for “Smokey’s
Chicken Crap Contest”. Buy squares on one of our huge boards
for $50 pesos. We’ll have two rounds and the first square
that “Smokeydoodledoo” or “Smokehorn Leghorn” craps on takes
the dough. (We promise that no chickens will be harmed
during this contest).
Hope you
find your backside at Smokey’s this St. Paddy’s Day!
