    Mexican holiday

    How do you plan to not celebrate it? Taking my wife to work, we stopped at the Scottish restaurant with Wolf eating her cheeseburger and a few fries. Now it is afternoon relaxing time, me in my easy recliner and she on her end of the couch. Raining now, so can't do any yard work putting in tomato plants.

      Ah! Saturday! Up at 6 AM! Coffee! Got to have coffee! All 3 1/2 acres of grass is cut! The bulletins for two churches are finished. My sermon for tomorrow is ready for blast off hour ... 9:30 AM and 11 AM tomorrow! About to have another mug! Then, walk Molly the Wonder Dog for 4-5 miles! Then, a quiet time of reflection watching westerns on GRIT TV. Then ... my wife and I are off to dinner w/ some church members! Wonderful way to spend the day! Sincerely. bruce.

              Back in the 1860s, the Mexicans owed the Europeans a lot of money. The French sent a warship, La Mayonnaise to collect what was owed them. The Mexicans sank it.

              Ever since, they've celebrated Sinko de Mayo.

                  That's close but it was the day that the Mexican Army [cub scouts] overthrew I believe Napoleon III incursion. It has been close to 50 years when we were required to learn this stuff. Barry will probably have a statue placed in some Mexican park for pigeon's to deliver well deserved honors to Barry's memory. Perhaps his wife can have a stature placed next to him entitled, "What about me?"

                          they can celebrate whatever they want in mexico. its not an American holiday, so it should not be observed.

                              So, Mexico was a parasite way back then too.

                                  I like Vern's version with a Sea Shanty sing-along.
