Dude, no one's going to find out. Unless you make an ass out of yourself with the agent and they send us/you to secondary.

I've been restricted from crossing over for almost three years now. If I get caught for any reason they will extend my time by another year.

I've already tried going to Mexico and on the way back the agent recognized me right away and I was taken to secondary. That made me not want to try anymore. They some how know.

It'll all be worth it.

Just put on a black ski mask. They won't recognize you this way.

Truthfully, I have no idea.

Some people will, I hope, offer to take their own vehicle with carpool and we'll caravan all the way there and back. Depending on what car you're in and how many people are riding in it, it may be more or less than others. We'll split the gas costs or we can get technical and charge $0.365 per mile for gas and "wear and tear," which makes the trip expensive for everyone.

I'm taking my car, so that's me plus another three who fit. I'm not charging a cent, but I will take donated tacos and/or beer.

Oh, I doubt anyone will take the libre road, so pitching in for the cuota is very kind.

I don't believe there to be a charge for the actual Tecate Cerveceria tour, but we do need to make reservations. That is why I set the sign up deadline for April 1, 2004.

Make sure you take enough cash with you to cover your eating habits, plus any souvenirs you plan on buying. If you're the type that gets into trouble, take enough cash to bail yourself out of Mexican jail.

This past Saturday's trip to the Tecate Brewery, officially dubbed TKT2K4, was a blast. For those of you that participated, I'm sure you'll all agree that the journey was very worth while.

Not only did we get a special private tour of the brewery from one of the founder's sons, but we had the opportunity to see first hand the complete brewing process. I personally enjoyed the film on the history of Cerveceria Tecate in their private movie screen. The collectible 100th Mexicali anniversary Caguama was a nice treat as well. It's something I'll keep in my collection for an eternity.

The trip got even better when we broke for lunch and headed for the cafeteria. To my surprise, we were able to order ice cold Caguamas from the lunch area. Nothing tastes better than the freshest Caguamas known to man.

The tour continued with a short session on beer brewing. Not ever having brewed any of my own beer, I now feel enthusiastic about starting this new hobby and drinking my own beer from my 1 litro Caguamug(tm).

I just can't wait for next year's TKT2K5.

What did you enjoy about TKT2K4?

We must of each had like four Caguamas during lunch time. Reminiscent of the good old days at Super K's.

Its too bad you drank your centennial bottle on the way back down. You could've at least kept it instead of tossing it out the window just to see it smash against the mountain side.

I can't remember who puked in the car. Was that spic-ole?

That I was informed that this was going to happen after all.

Thanks for the heads up.
