Left RP Last Friday, October 9, crossing border about 1pm. The southbound line was almost back to the 1-mile mark. Appeared very few were getting green light. Young women with Aduana shirts were busy checking every car going through. I hope this is temporary.

Not long after the new restaurant "Fish" opened a buddy and I stopped in to check it out and had a dozen perfect oysters on the half shell. Delicious! I was surprised.

We started to disclose in 2012 because rental proceeds were picking up and the red ink stopped flowing. My understanding is the fideicomisco does not trigger a special report to the IRS but Mexican bank accounts do. Not an expert response, just an answer to dirtsurfer's question.

New Very simple to resolve this without purchasing anything. Make one of these and point it towards the rooms you having signal issues with. http://www.labnol.org/software/increase-wifi-signal-strength-with-aluminum/8064/ Reminds me of wrapping aluminum foil over rabbit ears

I've been fighting with a WiFi extender in my US home for quite a while now. Sometimes it works great, then for no particular the no signal orange light comes on and it needs to be rebooted. Looking at forums on the subject this is not an uncommon problem. I'm feeling at this point that...

Don't know but NICE fish!

We liked it but kind of got turned off when during dinner we got a Mayan Palace time share pitch from our waiter. .....and didn't return.

Thanks everyone. I'll check out the place across from Numeros when I'm next in town. Any other leads appreciated.

That's one way steel boats are protected, so makes sense, especially with a 2-part polyurethane paint. Does anyone in RP have this capability?

I do have some general ideas regarding design, and looking for something in a metal. Anodized aluminum would be great given corrosion issues, but iron or steel would be fine if it can be powder coated. I'm looking for a metal frame with interesting design features that would allow a composite...
