Hitchhiking – Climategate – Swineflu – Mandatory Vaccinations

Eric — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 20:54:55 +0000

Just a quick video as it will be one of my lasts. I will be leaving Mexico shortly and will be selling off all my stuff to buy warm weather gear once I cross the border. I’ll post a couple more vids this weekend before I take off as a lasting centament of my time spent here in Acapulco. I’d like to thank all of those that have followed my journey over the last year and half! I more than likely won’t be publishing much on the next set of my journey as operating costs for my websites has overtaken the amount of advertising and donations that I receive. I will be returning to the United States to look for work and to prepare for my next journey which should be next summer. I have become very lazy in my travels and feel the need to do a regular job for a few months to regain my momentum. Once again thank you all very much and thank all that I have met and that have given me rides! I look forward to bringing more stories to you in the next chapter of my life. peace

H1N1(Swine Flu) and Acapulco Mexico

Eric — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 03:46:35 +0000

So I’ve been here in Mexico for almost 2 months now. Man does time fly when your traveling like this. Weeks and months go by so fast. I spend my time on the computer listening to CNN international and all the news about the Swine Flu. To tell you the truth, with all the people that I’ve met here and meet while walking around. I have yet to hear of anyone getting real sick. They say its the season for the flu here but haven’t seen it yet. I hope I don’t! I’ll be spending most of the next few weeks indoors working on the computer anyway. I would like to know if you know of anyone that has Swine Flu. I invite you to leave a comment to get a “real life” number on who has it or not. Please include your location if you do. Thanks. Peace

New Layout & Features

As you can see I have pretty much finished getting the new layout set for this site. I still have some registered user features to add and also get my estore for digital goods up and running. Please register so you can leave comments for my posts. I will be online 12+ hours a day for the next couple weeks getting everything done that I have on my list. I need to get another digital camera so I can take more pics. This picture here is one of my favorite areas in Acapulco. Peace

It Begins

After many weeks of trying to get things squared away enough here in Mexico, I’m finally able to be online at my new apartment and start working on the net. For basic 60 channel cable and 1.5mbps broadband cost about $35/month. I also got a bed now and a tv and stereo. Instead of wasting money on a new computer I just purchased a cheap flat screen to make my eeepc work again.

I have 3 major overhauls to do first. One is this site, which I will start today. I will be completely redoing this site. It should only take me 1 or 2 days to do this and import all my old data into my new database. To save time I’ll be putting WordPress back on this site and using already made subscription services scripts. I’m making this site subscription based to help pay for my server bill each month. At the same time that I’m working on this site and my others I will be spamming hard in a blackhat marketing campaign, to get some money rolling right away. I’ll be running out of cash pretty fast because I’ve decided to pay for rent many months in advance with the money I have coming in right now. This money stops the end of October. I’ll spend the first few weeks on here getting all my old stuff updated. I do have my messengers online so for those of you that know my info please feel free to chat. I have a lot more to write but I want to get busy on these things. I’ll update more soon. Peace
