Hello Everyone,

:lol: YogaBoy...glad you stopped by and hope that you will call this home. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here that are ready and willing to help in anyway, all you have to is ask.

Don't forget to take a look at our website at SingleDivers.com. We are constantly upgrading and would love to see you on one of our upcoming trips.

Again, welcome to our little place on the net where having fun is what it is all about.

Historically, he's partially correct. From the Texican POV. That part of New Mexico came from the annexation of Texas, not as part of the spoils of the Mexican War.

OTOH, Mexico claimed the border was not the Rio Grande, but the Nueces. The Mexican claim appears to be valid as the Nueces was the traditional boundry of Texas. This was true when Mexico was a Spanish colony and after Mexican independence. The Rio Grande claim was based on two points, neither very convincing. First, when Mexico allowed US citizens to immigrate into Mexico, primarily in Texas, some of those US citizens settled in the area between the Nueces and the Rio Grande. Kinda like claiming that because most Cubans settled in Florida, but since some settled in south Georgia, the Florida/Georgia border should be moved north. Pretty silly. The second point was when Antonio LĂłpez de Santa Anna was defeated at San Jacinto, he agreed to withdraw his troops across the Rio Grande. Following this logic, that portion of New Mexico was acquired in the Mexican War.

I think it's safe to say, you aren't a Texan.

What are we hiding? How deep? Once ('86) a bottle of liquor was hidden in the Wreck of the Eagle at about 95 feet.
