	Head-Banger Gilligan at AB handing out candy - Wuz Up?	9		2001/06/11, 11:47 pm

Anyone know who the crazy looking old gringo is who sits in the back of Adelita's? He seems to be there a lot, sits next to one of the TV's (televisions, not TV's ;-) at the back wall. Wears a floppy hat and always has a glazed look (drunk?) and just bobs his head up and down endlessly. One of the girls said that he's been there for months and always has a bag full of candy for the girls (doesn't he know that money works better than candy?).

Also, who is the gordita gringa is who hangs out on the corner in front of La Carretta? She seems to run the corner, but doesn't seem to be interested in working.

it could be Westfargo.....Franco....or Texas Mike??? oh I know...thats Nick Nolte!! LOL>>>>>

I call that guy the "Gilligan's Island" guy. He stays at the hotel next to CC several nights a week. He used to go with the girls occasionally, but has not been up in a long time according to a chica I talked to recently.

Thats pretty funny you asked that jdad 999, I have been debating to ask the same question. That dude is always at adelitas. Watching him, you would of thought his head would of fell off by all that bobbling.

I have been told his name several times, but can't remember it. He used to wheel in a cooler full of trinkets, and give one to each girl who asked.

I saw him on Valentine's Day and he had a thermos filled with chocolate kisses. Make fun of his looks & tics all you want...every chica that walked by him gave him a big hug and/or a kiss on the cheek and took a kiss. Some even sat with him for awhile and he looked like he was in (his own) heaven.

yeah, it's nothing for him to be holding court for 3 or four chicas at a table in the back.

He gets his pussy in the afternoon, almost every day, 2-3 hours at a time..

It seems that he has done almost every girl in the place at one time or other.

Now he just does street girls.

His name is "Shady".

It's not Shadow!!!!

Can you think of a better way to spend Social Security?

This guy probably tells his family he is going fishing because he is always wearing a fishing vest and Gilligan's hat, he kind of looks like the skipper in gilligan's. Ol' ass pervert, I'll probably spend my retirement the same way.

That's Jimmy, he's an ex-bus driver from San Diego. He's really wierd. But he's not stupid, he gets good deals. Just think! Even he does better with the gals then most of you guys. Sort of puts things into prospective. He usually sits in my seat. Pisses me off to no end!

Have you guys seen the young Mexican guy with no arms? I think his name is "Arturo" He's usually in the AB or Pollo bar. He used to live in Fresno Ca. where he got his arms chopped off by a cotton picking machine. Got a ton of loot from the Insurance co. I think he's running out of money, because he occausnally asks for drinks. Of course I don't buy him anything. He's lucky he got his arms chopped off in the US. If it were Mexico they would just put him to sleep!!!!!

Westfargo...

They grow cotton in Fresno?

Or were you just using it as an epithet, "that cottinpickin' machine!"

Ex-bus driver?

That reminds me of when I was in high school in the Mid-70's, and I'd go over to my Irish-Mexican girlfriend's house... Sometimes I'd hear her Mexican Mom yelling at her Irish bus-driver Dad about his exploits in Mexico with gambling, drinking, and whores.

Thinking back on it, it is pretty amazing that he could keep up a family of 5 kids, and STILL drink, gamble, and fuck around, all on a bus driver's salary. Ah, THOSE were the days...

...then one day he got a 502, which was not that big of a deal back in those days, EXCEPT if you were a bus driver. He managed to survive that, and a little alien-smuggling rap(hmmm, maybe THAT was how he afforded it all on a bus driver's salary), but eventually the kids grew up and the Mom left him for a another guy.

I gotta wonder if your "Jimmy" is my old girlfriend's dad. When does he go there - in the day? He didn't drive for San Diego Transit, did he?

Shy Guy, the Central Valley, which includes Fresno, is one of the world's top producers of cotton, and the world's largest exporter of cotton. In fact, in many Central Valley counties, cotton is the number one agricultural crop, with grapes running a close second. Forget the South.

Matiz,

In the Central Valley (where I worked as a DJ in the beginning of my radio daze) the number one agricultual crop is San Joaquin Green.

Lo siento. I meant "legal crop".

I learned something today.

I new Central Valley was a powerhouse when it came to edible produce.

I had no idea of its connection to textiles.

J. G. Boswell is the world king of cotton. For years they had a running feud with the Sawyer family. Corcoran was a two company town and they would blow each others dykes up during storms. Boswell bought them out about 5 years or so ago. They plant literally hundreds of square miles in cotton and till out any other crop or brush. Really rapes the landscape. No trespassing; they will run you off pronto.

Sawyer came from the South after the boweevil crisis. Boswell drained the swamps around what once was Tulare Lake. Of course all of this was subsidized by the US taxpayer: the drainage, free land, dirt cheap water from the California water project, and best of all the government subsidizes the price of cotton!

Cotton requires a LOT of water at the right times. It is as water intensive as alfalfa. What is worse is they spray the plants with defoliant before harvesting. The chemicals pollute the water supply. The soil is saline and all the water carries even more salt. The drainage is actually severely toxic! Boswell wanted to drain it into SF Bay, but they got stuck at Kesterson National Wildlife Refuge (land donated by Boswell) which was then polluted with ag runoff (donated by Boswell). Waterfowl died or grew second heads.

Boswell spun off the Tulare Lake Drainage District and paid it to take the water runoff (termed tile drainage - because they bury perforated pipe at the low ends of the fields to collect the toxic runoff). Lawsuits and wild life environment restorations will continue for years.

Stop by when driving through, pick the cotton heads in the late summer. You will feel the raspy sharp edges that caused "cotton pickin hands" of black slave yore.

yeah, i saw jimmy this weekend...I kept yelling at him, and then i called him Westfargo..He just kept bobbing his head up and down and all round like a moron....I saw a guy sitting next to him and asked if his name was Westfargo..He told me to go to hell...hmm....also what is up with that little midget guy dancing around adelitas..He was out there dancing with the ladies on friday night....little guy is funny as hell...he also sells little gifts...Someone needs to tell him to take a shower, he really smelled like busted ass when he walked by me.....

I saw this old freak recently. Word from las chicas is that that view him as a grandfatherly figure who gives out little gifts mostly candy.

Springtime, for Hitler, in Tijua-a-na!

yo,

on sunday night i saw some guy with two parrots walking around the zona. anyone know him? i thought it was kind of funny.

pdp

What is the deal with the little Mexican midget/dwarf who has a slight limp? He walks around selling different trinkets and also dances on the floor with some of the hotties...He looks like a cartoon character....I tried to talk to him, but when he came near me, he stunk real bad..anyone see this guy?

Hb;

Of course. I've bought stuff from him. He provides a useful service.

IMHO, this beats the hell out of panhandling from the cars at the border. Even though the guy could probably make about $70/hr at the border, versus $5/hr in the ZN... Maybe he likes to hang around the chicks... are maybe he is just stupid... or maybe I've just never seen him panhandling from the cars at the border during the day...

Candyman's real name is Bob - this guy definately has gotten more pussy than all of us put together. Not only does the girls give him kisses and huges in exchange for his candy, but on his last birthday they threw him a big ass birthday party in AB - candles, ballons, cakes - the whole deal, very well organized by several of the girls - lots of gifts, even the fishing hat itself was a gift from one of his favorite girls. The girls there - young and old - love Candyman - he stays at the crappy hotel next to CC - he pays it in full monthly - he doesn't take the girls upstair in AB - cause I've seen him with different girls everytime coming to his room - and i'm sure this is not one of those 30 minutes, or an hour deal - I've seen the girls leave the next morning. He's done better than 99% of the guys I've seen step foot into AB. He's even showed me video footage of a handfull of his girlfriends stripping to the bare and masterbating for him and his camera - the ones with visa, he'll take them across the border, take them shopping - seaworld - disneyland. Candyman's got it made.

I guess I'm off to a good start, I always give 'em candy...

I noticed "The Candy Man" for the first time acouple days ago. I'm sure I've seen him but just not thought anything aboout it.

I was sitting talking with Isella when he sat down in the both across from us. I knew it was the Candy Man when he started moving back and forth. It seems like he is on extacy(although I'm sure he wasn't). The fact that he had three bags with him also was clue.

He came in with a bag of microwave popcorn. What I want to know is. Is there a hotel in the Zona Norte that has microwave ovens?

Isella told me "He gets mucho pussy". she also told me that his name is Robert.

It sounds like people think he's some kinda freak. But why?

I hope when I get to be that age I can sit in a bar without caring what anyone else thinks about me and have lots of beautiful ladies come up and give me attention.

I think he takes happy mongering to the fullest extent.
