This was my first trip down. And I learned what NOT to do. We drove accross the border (never do that) and from what I could see we passed from San Diego into the 10th level of hell. There aren't any street lights, or even lines on the road. We ended up missing Tijuana for the first 2 hours, (the street signs there don't mean shit) but still found a pharmacy that would sell. Then ended up where we were supposed to be, and got even more. (those guys in the pharmacies are just lookin' for saps, so watch your ass) Take everyone's advice, and don't drive accross. Ever. The only reason we found where we were going, is we had a gal who spoke Spanish with us. We made it back with a pretty good supply, and customs was a breeze... but the country itself was unreal. Like something you see on those save the children commercials. And there were a lot of counterfeits there. Some were pretty damn obvious too. Cost was good. Supply was good. Fear for life was bad. So if you're goin' down... don't drive, watch your ass, and don't accept the first cost they tell you. They will negotiate if they think you'll take your money somewhere else. Sorry for the book, guys... just thought I'd comment on my first trip down.

On my first trip to helluana, I had a similar reaction. Except we walked across the border and visited la pharmicia on foot. There's tons of sketchy lookin hombres walkin the streets And every ten feet there's a door man screaming at you through a megaphone to try and get you to come into their tittybar. I remember when I told the pharmicist what I wanted, he got on the phone and called somebody. This shady lookin creep came in through the back door with a back of everything I had requested. I thought this was strange and for good reason. Just about everything in the bag was counterfeit. When we finally found legit stuff,I purchased it and soon found myself in the stall of some shithole tittybars john frantically taping vials of deca to the inside of my legs. 4 mexicans followed me into the bathroom and waited for me to come out of the stall. I thought for sure I was going to get smoked, but they just demanded gratuitys for keeping the bathroom so clean???? I paid and went on my way. what a nightmare that trip was.

That's the truth, Biz. When we left, my 2 brothers and I all had at least 4 bottles of Test taped to us, just in case they looked in the car, and not on us, and other bottles stashed in the body of the car. (NOT in door panels or something stupid like that, where they WILL check if you are stopped for a secondary) We definately couldn't have got out what we did without the car. That was the only good part. I tell you what, though... I can't believe we didn't get in a wreck. People drive for ass down there. It was like being in a destruction derby rally. It was insane.

I have been going to Mexico for about 13 years now, but I can still remember the first time. That was when I went with my older brother the weekend after I graduated from 8th grade. If you think that Mexico was a shock to you guys, then imagine what it was like for me only being like 13 years old. I have been so many times since then it would be impossible to remember every time. One time, me and some of my friends were so drunk crossing the border we decided to walk to our hotel and got lost and had to cross the 101 freeway (we were really fucked up) where we crossed pathes with a Mexican family crossing the 101 too (I am not shitting you at all). Ah, Mexico, the memories.

Ha ha ha ha!!! I hear that. I won't be able to sleep for a few weeks. Getting lost in El Shitto Part of Towno was not fun. I realy had doubts as to if we could find our way out. I felt like I had a big ass target on my head chest and back. I'll be telling my grandchildren about it. (providing the AS don't make sterile)

The federalis will fuck you up. I got arrested in mexico because i had a pocket knife!!!!IT WAS ON MY KEY CHAIN!!! thats how small it was...it cost me 100.00 dollars to get them to let me go!! and we complain about the cops here!!!Big Bro val hit the nail on the head its no mans land, not for the weak at heart. Walked into a bar in boys town south of Del Rio right into blood on the floor from a stabbing and the guy was laying there for about 2 hours before someone helped him up and to a hospital!!!levi

Yeah. That was a benefit for sure. And the cost was great. We got Sust for $9.50 a shot... just watch the bastards who will come up and tell you they are a doctor, and invite you into a back alley somewhere. They actually approach you on the street and ask if that's what you are looking for, and to follow them to get it. So remember: WATCH YOUR ASS AND DON't BE F****N' STUPID!!!
