Yeah, I know it’s not Mexico’s Independence day.

But it is a good day to drink Mexican beer all day.



And don’t forget something to wash all that beer down with.



Go find a Mariachi band.



Don’t forget the sombrero.

During my drinking days, I used to hop over the border to Nogales and drink a beer that was discontinued in the late 80s: "Tres Equis (XXX)" (Dos Equis darker, older brother). Good stuff.

Favorite Los Lobos song: "When the Circus Comes to Town".

In protest of Cinco de Mayo, I stopped by Taco Bell and ate some fake Mexican food.

In a recent poll on the reason for Cinco de Mayo, out of 5 choices, the real reason finished last.... For American's it might as well be chips and tequila day...



Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Wait I'm confused. Are we celebrating legal immigrants, illegal immigrants, or just another countries crap in our own country?

If it's number 2 or number 3 then it's bullcrap.

Isn't #2 always crap? I mean #1 is pee, right?

Let's face it, people will use any excuse to party no matter what.

In my drinking days I used to celebrate Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I mean those days only came once a week, right?

Not saying this to cause any issues, but I used to wonder about that also, then I thought about the Saint Patrick's day celebrations in our predominantly German, French rural county where I live. We also have large Oktoberfest celebrations but that at least makes sense with our heritage.

Most Mexicans don't celebrate Cinco de Mayo. It's more of an American holiday today.

I get your point, and that was kind of mine as well. I bet there are a lot of American politicians who are celebrating a "Mexican" holiday as a way to ingratiate themselves to those of Mexican origin. (and probably young people, as well)

Agreed.

At Prom walk ins on Saturday, I was surprised.

The announcers, which I was last year, announce the couple, and the car/truck they arrived in. Imagine "Arriving in a 2019 Mercedes is Sr. X with his/her date, Sr./jr/ ........." etc.

However, there were 4 couples where the announcers had to speak Spanish. What???

Wow, I didn't read it like that at all. I thought the conversation was more about Americans co-opting a Mexican holiday that they don't understand nor appreciate and just using it as another reason to have a party and get drunk at party with a Mexican theme.

I don't want to argue about it either. You're obviously free to think whatever you wish. But you end up using a really broad brush when you make a statement like you made without replying to the particular post or poster that prompted it.
