Observations: observaciones sobre mexico


The passing game has got to be the most popular sport behind soccer. People will pass you on the highway or anywhere else, and on either side sometimes, just for some status in the line of cars. It is so machismo it aint funny, but ladies are guilty as well. Both will risk their life just to gain a few cars and then slow down for the speedbumps that are everywhere or get off the road for a taco! People coming the other way are expected to slow down and you are expected to let someone back in line instead of being in a wreck. We´ll just keep going with these: If you are too wasted to drive or walk you can send your 8 yr old kid to the tienda to get you more beer! Laws- 18 to drink and also to drive, yeah right! Laws-rules???? seem optional. Rice and beans together are regional, believe it or not, we are in black bean land now and the rice seems to be their friend, thank ya jesus! Its impossible to buy a bad tasting orange! If you don´t like pineapple, you need help! Chili and lime on everything, try it! Every band is a boy band sort of, they may be viejos though! Valentina hot sauce rules! It´s available in Texas I know. The sound of the tortilleria machine is haunting in the early morning, but the product is the perfection of corn! duh!?! and we can´t surf, but neither can you!
