    Cross Border Movers

    I have heard lately that some of the people offering to move stuff across the border are not licensed to do so. They are offering the incentive of a cheap price with a huge risk. If someone is offering a moving or delivery service from the U.S to Mexico or vice versa they must have federal...

    Computer Fix in Penasco

    A bit back I bough a nice laptop and was absolutley disappointed that the operating system was Windows 8. The transition from 7 to 8 is idiotic. 8 is totally non intuitive and different from windows 7 . They even invented new names for stuff like icons are now 'charms'. I took my laptop and...

Best guess is they were using nets. No...

The city apparently controls the land and there have been sand drags hosted there. The entrance is the street next to...
