I've never heard of a 24 hour delay for it though. Can't find much online about a delay before Montezuma's Revenge.
Maybe you get infected and it takes a while for the bug to proliferate in your guts.
I have to revoke the never sick part. I got classic tourista about 24 hours after getting back. Not sure how that happened, but seems like it has to be the trip. At least it was not on the plane thank God.
I did brush my teeth with the water, which may have been my mistake. I have also since read that "If the food isn't too hot to eat when it arrives at your table, you shouldn't eat it at all." This is because just a touch by a dirty hand on warm food can make a place where bacteria can proliferate quickly.
My wife is fine, but she never brushed her teeth with the tap water.
So not sure if you ate anything at the airport.
Two Americans who survived border kidnap linked to ultra-violent Gulf Cartel that killed their two friends as they drove south 'to get budget tummy tuck surgery'
Two Americans kidnapped at gunpoint at the US-Mexico border by 'Gulf Cartel' have been found dead, two others wounded, with one person now under arrest
Mexican officials have said that the leader of the 'Gulf Cartel' may be involved
The four Americans had been traveling south so that one of the group could have a tummy tuck when they got caught in gunfire between two gangs

The good news is that two of them don't need the tummy tuck anymore.

We did actually eat in the airport before the flight. Could have got me on the way out of the country.

The Ancient City of Cahokia was located directly across the Mississippi River from present-day St Louis, Missouri and its famous arch
By 1100AD, Cahokia held 40,000 people, larger than London and Paris at the same time, and was the site of ritualistic mass human sacrifices, many of which were teenage girls
Then today I saw a similar story pointing out it wasn't all kisses and hugs before white people arrived and improved things dramatically:
The Mongol army conquered hundreds of cities and villages and killed millions of people. One estimate is that about 11% of the world's population was killed either during or immediately after the Mongol invasions, around 37.75–60 million people in Eurasia.[7] These events are regarded as some of the most deadly acts of mass killing in human history.
Merely a lack of technology on the part of the Indians. If they could have utterly exterminated enemy tribes, they would have.
I read a book called "Cannibals and Kings" which went over the horrific torture American Indians would inflict on each other, like skinning enemy warriors alive.
And don't forget the Mongols. Their genocides make WWII look rather tame by comparison:

Mongols were battling AGW long before it became fashionable.

I'm still a bit creeped out by learning more about the human sacrifice. They would cut you open, and then the priest would literally reach in and rip your heart out.
I imagine a Catholic priest talking to an Aztec something like this in 1520 or so:
priest: God sacrificed his only son to save you.
Aztec: Sure, Gods do that and this is why we have to sacrifice people, to return the favor. Was his heart ripped out?
priest: No, they nailed him to a cross.
Aztec: Creative! So you nail people to crosses?
priest: No, it was just a one-time thing.
Aztec: Boring!
A Mexican drug cartel has blamed five rogue members of its gang for the deadly kidnapping of four Americans in Matamoros.
The Gulf cartel’s Scorpions faction made the claims in a letter obtained by the Associated Press. Photos purportedly showed the suspects with their hands tied, face down on a sidewalk after being turned in by the cartel along with the letter.
The criminal group apologised for the kidnapping and said five of its members “acted under their own decision-making and lack of discipline”.
“The Gulf cartel asks the community to be calm as we’re committed to ensuring that these types of mistakes are not made ever again and plan to make those who are guilty pay,” the letter states.
The development followed reports that Mexican investigators conducted deep background checks on the four victims – LaTavia “Tay” McGee, Eric James Williams, Shaeed Woodard and Zindell Brown – as they probe the possibility of cartel links.
A report obtained by Reutersflagged the criminal records of Williams and Woodard, finding past drug convictions.
When authorities finally located the missing tourists four days after their abduction one week ago, McGee and Williams were rescued while Woodward and Brown were found dead.
The Gulf drug cartel’s ‘apology’
An unnamed Tamaulipas state law enforcement official provided a letter believed to be authored by the Gulf drug cartel to the Associated Press. In it, the criminal organisation promised to turn over five men who kidnapped LaTavia “Tay” McGee, Eric James Williams, Shaeed Woodard and Zindell Brown on 3 March.
“We have decided to turn over those who were directly involved and responsible in the events, who at all times acted under their own decision-making and lack of discipline,” the letter reads, according to the AP.
An extended version of the letter shared by local media also read: “The Gulf drug cartel Scorpion section decries the attack on 3 March, in which a working [Mexican] mother was killed and four American citizens were kidnapped. Two of them were also killed.
“ [The five members] went against the Gulf drug carter’s rules of respecting the life and integrity of innocent people. We apologise to residents of Matamoros ... and the American families affected.”
“The Gulf cartel asks the community to be calm because we’re committed to ensuring that these types of mistakes are not made ever again and making those who are guilty pay.”
WTF? Drug cartel says it respects human life?
Last night I found out that Indians in the US (the Mississipian culture) built mounds that look a lot like pyramids, though not with stone, as far north as Illinois and Wisconsin. They had human sacrifice and art that looks very Mexican to me
This tribe, the Allegewi, supposedly were Delaware and Iroquois tribes, causing the survivors to flee deep into Appalachia where the Cherokee later encountered them.
Here's where the European legend comes in.
There are also claims (including on a Fort Mountain State Park Plaque and, supposedly, by the 18th C. Cherokee chief Oconostota) that the Moon Eyed people are descendants of the Welsh prince Madoc--who, according to Welsh legend, sailed to America in 1170.
Prince Madoc is a fascinating figure out of legend. He supposedly sailed to the Americas three hundred years before Columbus, which isn't an impossible thing to imagine, considering the Viking incursions centuries earlier. There is likely a long chain of various migration events across the Atlantic and Pacific over human history that we know little to nothing about (one of many reasons that the woke worldview and its idea of indigenous land ownership is so childlike).
