Going from ice bucket straight to the frying pan. The 2018 Members Conference in San Antonio was a resounding success. If you missed it, you missed a good time. Start making your plans for our 2019 Conference to be hosted by Ruben and Bonnie Gomez in Albuquerque, NM. Exact particulars will be forthcoming. Freddie Villarreal and all who supported the 2018 Conference are to be commended for their hard work. As reported by Freddie, FOBA’s Treasury got a little boost with some healthy money from their hard work. Thanks to all of you! Also, at the Conference FOBA gained 4 new members. Our recruiters are also to be commended. Let’s see if we can build on this start in the next year. No big summer plans for us. Trying to stay cool while doing indoor projects. Someday they might just get done. Hope to see all at the 2019 Conference. Be good, or be good at it.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:39 am. ¿QUE PASO ? 5 Summer 2018 TREASURER’S REPORT Greetings to all: The Treasury is solid and in the black after another great conference. With all the people assisting Fred Villarreal with registration, raffles and other money making projects we now have over $10,000 in our Treasury. We have not paid to publish a Que Paso in almost a year which has really helped with finances. San Antonio was a great time even if the weather didn’t cooperate. I believe a good time was had by all and many thanks to those who attended. Another thanks to those who helped (and so many did) to make another memorable conference. The ladies at the registration desk collected $300 in dues from those who wish to pay at the conference. All dues payments are welcome. We still have some 40 people who have not paid and there is no “1-1-19” to show member in good standing by their names. Again, if you are unsure of your date, I will be happy to assist. As I have reported in the past, we obligate $1,000.00 for our conference and Fred returned that and some after all was totaled. Thanks again and see you all in Albuquerque next year. B. Stock, Treasurer ¿QUE PASO ? 6 Summer 2018 Contributed by Billy Martin via \Arne Flores Many of us are between 65 and death, i.e. old. My friend sent me this excellent list for aging . and I have to agree it's good ad- vice to follow. The guy who sent this hi-lighted #19. 1. It’s time to use the money you saved up. Use it and enjoy it. Don’t just keep it for those who may have no notion of the sacrific- es you made to get it. Remember there is nothing more dangerous than a son or daughter-in-law with big ideas for your hard-earned capital. Warning: This is also a bad time for investments, even if it seems wonderful or fool-proof. They only bring problems and worries. This is a time for you to enjoy some peace and quiet. 2. Stop worrying about the financial situation of your children and grandchildren, and don’t feel bad spending your money on your- self. You’ve taken care of them for many years, and you’ve taught them what you could. You gave them an education, food, shelter and support. The responsibility is now theirs to earn their own money. 3. Keep a healthy life, without great physical effort. Do moderate exercise (like walking every day), eat well and get your sleep. It’s easy to become sick, and it gets harder to remain healthy. That is why you need to keep yourself in good shape and be aware of your medical and physical needs. Keep in touch with your doctor, do tests even when you’re feeling well. Stay informed. 4. Always buy the best, most beautiful items for your significant other. The key goal is to enjoy your money with your partner. One day one of you will miss the other, and the money will not provide any comfort then, enjoy it together 5. Don’t stress over the little things. Like paying a little extra on price quotes. You’ve already overcome so much in your life.You have good memories and bad ones, but the important thing is the present. Don’t let the past drag you down and don’t let the future frighten you. Feel good in the now. Small issues will soon be forgotten. 6. Regardless of age, always keep love alive. Love your partner, love life, love your family, love your neighbor and remember: “A man is not old as long as he has intelligence and affection.” 7. Be proud, both inside and out. Don’t stop going to your hair salon or barber, do your nails, go to the dermatologist and the den- tist, keep your perfumes and creams well stocked. When you are well-maintained on the outside, it seeps in, making you feel proud and strong. 8. Don’t lose sight of fashion trends for your age, but keep your own sense of style. There’s nothing worse than an older person trying to wear the current fashion among youngsters. You’ve developed your own sense of what looks good on you – keep it and be proud of it. It’s part of who you are. 9. ALWAYS stay up-to-date. Read newspapers, watch the news. Go online and read what people are saying. Make sure you have an active email account and try to use some of those social networks. You’ll be surprised what old friends you’ll meet. Keeping in touch with what is going on and with the people you know is important at any age. 10. Respect the younger generation and their opinions. They may not have the same ideals as you, but they are the future, and will take the world in their direction. Give advice, not criticism, and try to remind them that yesterday’s wisdom still applies today. 11. Never use the phrase: “In my time.” Your time is now. As long as you’re alive, you are part of this time. You may have been younger, but you are still you now, having fun and enjoying life.

  • I Am Leaving the U.S
    April 11, 2014 Password for the STANDARD Newsletter Archive is: PCAPP I AM LEAVING THE U.S. I went on a six day working vacation this past week to La Paz, Mexico. Guess whose boat was at the fuel dock down there? The answer in a minute. While there I overheard some Gringo’s talking about how they were fed up with the corporate life back in the states. He worked for Cisco, and she was a real estate agent in the Southern California area. They had plans for eventually leaving the U.S. behind and moving to Mexico permanently. 1 I have been going to Mexico since I was eight years old. I was fortunate to have a father who had the spirit of adventure, and a mother that was happy to tag along. We crossed the border almost every other Saturday to watch the horses run at Agua Caliente racetrack in Tijuana. My good mother would also make sure that I went to church the next day. Back then, I was busy inventing a system that would predict the final time that a horse would run. It was quite a formula. I was in my mid-teens at the time. I have been a number cruncher my entire life. Finally at the age of 19, I hit the pick six at Caliente. I had six straight winners using my system and I left the track with bundles of fifty dollar bills. I believe it added up to about $26,000 overall for a $16 bet. Caliente closed a few years later, but it sure left me with some good memories.

  • Spring and Summer Salads
    Spring and Summer Salads Back in the early salad eating days (circa 1st century CE), ancient Greeks and Romans gathered and layered raw vegetables, drizzling vinegar, oil, and herbs over top to create the world’s first salad. During this healthy, raw food diet craze, Hippocrates sparked a huge debate when he declared that eating raw vegetables in a salad before supper helps clear the intestines of obstructions. Critics backlashed and said that the vinegar of dressing affected the flavor of wine, so salads should be eaten after the main course. Today, most salads are happily consumed before the main course. Flash forward to the Middle Ages – Artistic transformations and revivals were made during this Renaissance period, including green leafy experimentation. The dinner salads that were created during this time are extremely similar to the ones we still eat and enjoy today. Today, salads are available in almost every restaurant, cafe, and even gas station around the country. But what did the United States do to create their own salad tradition? As Todd Frye from the nostalgic Pop-Cult website eloquently puts it, “As an American food, salads were relatively unimportant until the back to nature movement of the 60’s. This was a meat and potatoes nation well through the T-bone-on-the- grill fifties.” Popular Salads: Caesar: Invented in 1903 Giacomo Junia, an Italian cook in Chicago, Illinois. Giacomo called the salad Caesar Salad after Julius Caesar, the greatest Italian of all time OR Invented in 1924 by Caesar Cardini, who invented it in Tijuana, Mexico in 1924 on the Fourth of July weekend.

Avenida Revolucion is perhaps the area where this is most obvious. Located in the heart of Tijuana, this hybrid area showcases elements of both the American and Mexican cultures. This border city has long been linked with the economy and traditions of the United States via the neighboring city of San Diego. Tijuana offers a variety of attractions, including world-class restaurants, lively nightclubs, fascinating museums, colorful craft shops and modern shopping malls. You can also enjoy beautiful golf courses, beaches, bullfights, greyhound racing and many attractions that cannot be found in any other Mexican city. ROSARITO South of Tijuana and just 25 minutes away from the American city of San Diego is the town of Rosarito, where the main attractions are its beautiful beaches along with golf courses, spas and exciting nightlife. The town also has incredible sunsets, exquisite cuisine and an excellent climate that makes it ideal for year-round travel. Visitors can enjoy various water sports, cycling, horse-back riding and ATV tours or just relax on the oceanfront. 1 A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY Tijuana’s name comes from the union of the words “Tia” (aunt) and “Juana”, as this great city was once the home of Tia Juana, a celebrated early landowner who lived here during the nineteenth century.
