Alv, No mas por hacer la maldad

Every once in a while you just have to listen to Los Razos in the morning to set the tone for the fucking day.

Property taxes about to go up

Do you think Infantino watched Football Cities to see what street food he should eat in Monterrey? You can...and should! youtu.be/v93pQ9sWW_8?...

Paul Skenes asking for flags to be flies at half mast after that outing

On this episode we talk about Cesar Chavez in a brief historical context since it was clear to me so many people talking about him don't have any and then we discuss his indefensible actions and how disappointing some Chicano's reactions have been podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

First day back at UTEP after spring break means it’s the start of GetTo ClassSweatyFromWalkingUpMountainsSeason. At least the views are nice at the Harvard of the Borderland.

I suppose it’s not surprising when they were treating nazi scientists and their families better than Mexican Americans

One of my favorite little things has become reading YouTube comments where Mexicans share their dreams and gratitude with strangers

85 degree early evening means cigar weather. Kristoff Connecticut 660 - recommend.

I knew Bergman learned Spanish to communicate with his teammates but I didn’t know he had also become the mythical and stereotypical 6 Foot Mexican™️

Just heard someone making small talk at Walmart. "Se nos fue el Shuk Noris."

That World Cup theme song with Jelly Roll and Carin Leon is one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard.

You visit new places, eat and enjoy their food. You come back and reset yourself by eating burritos, the national food of El Paso-Juarez. Again, Tortilleria Crystal has some of the best. AND, they actually deseed all their chile rellenos, which I’ve noticed not every place does.

It’s been too long

Nothing quite like landing in El Paso and being greeted by one of the world’s great rivers; the Rio Grande. For those who’ve never had the pleasure, Juarez is on south side of photo.

Waiting for the Cesar Chávez news like

US baseball should have waited until today to get pep talk from Bin Laden’s killer. That’s the sort of talk reserved for final game. Now they got to settle for a talk from the guy who started Black Bear Diner

Paul Thomas Anderson cut off before he could thank the Fallas Paredes in downtown El Paso

Diet’s gone off the rails

“Valio verga”

Sad Mexican Season

“Poor Mexico, so far from God, and so close to getting mercy ruled”

Boycotting Olive Garden

Maybe I’m bad luck and if I watch the Love is Blind reunion show instead, Mexico can still come back

Italy getting payback for the Taco Bell pizza creation
