  1. My wife was banded By Dr. Kuri about 4 years ago We have been very happy with his service and after care. I am self employed and insured so we paid the cost of the surgery. At that time lap band was new in the States and we found the cost ran from 25,000 to 40,000. So we saved quite a chunk of change by going to Mexico. The care is excellent, we would not hesitate to do so again. We found the post operation care( fills and support) also excellent. My wife has lost over 100 lbs. and still losing though slower now. I am so proud of her! Note: we live about 2 hours drive away, and now we go to TJ just for a special weekend once in awhile.
  2. Here is a link that goes in to more detail than my last post Legalized Prostitution: Regulating the Oldest Profession By the way interesting debate. I never thought that this subject would be brought up.
  3. I agree with patty green's statement here. I don't believe that there will be any prostitution in heaven. However here on earth, i feel that it should be legalized. my reasoning is, more for the protection of the prostitute and the customers. If legal you take most of the criminals out of the picture, you allow the girls recourse to go to LE (law enforcement) if they are abused. Or the consumer if robbed. This is not generally reported now, due to they are involved in a illegal act. Allowing the criminals to act with some level of impunity. Also are the health issues, with say a license with mandatory health checks would allow tracking of the spread of STD's, and treatment if possible. Also the legalization would help empower women to make their choice. I checked on the web and found to my surprise that quite a few countries have some forum of legal prostitution. In fact both of our immediate neighbors to the north, and south have some form of legal prostitution this doesn't seem to be a problem for them. JMHO luv the BBQ!
