Tremenda Restaurante

It was a long, crazy night and I needed some food. I stumbled into my truck and drove down to a taco stand close to the corner of Lafayette and Sanber, called Tremenda Restaurant. The food was decent, the prizes surprising, but the company was predictable. However, on some nights, a change from Taco Palenque is always welcomed. Noches tremendas.

TKO Follies continue

While I no longer frequent TKO Bar, on San Bernardo, I still believe that their food is pretty decent. However, their spelling still comes up short.

Deserts or Desserts?

Just check out their choice of "desserts" below. I think they are trying to sell you the Gobi and Sahara version of their 'deserts'.
Mmm, I think I will stick with chocolate cake for now. I know this is Laredo and all, but, come on.

Almost back

I' m still trying to settle back in. Almost done. Don't fret too much friends.

Gone Fishing

I'll be offline for the next 8 to 10 days while I move. Be back soon. Don't get mad.

No esperes que manana vuelva

No esperes que mañana vuelva porque no lo haré!

It was sometime in late 1990 or early 1991 and I was down visiting my cousins in Laredo. At the time,I had a Sony Walkman Cassette that I carried everywhere and my primo let me borrow his copy of La Mafia's tape, 'Con tanto amor'.

I heard the track 'No lo Hare' for the first time that summer, and since then I was hooked. I hadn't heard that cassette in close to 20 years, but behold the power of the internet and semi-illegal file sharing, I ran across a digital copy of it.

I remember 1991 and me walking down the south-side of Laredo, walkman in my ears, with the wind in my face, sun on my back and enjoying being 12 years old. Good times, good times.

(disclaimer: I did not upload this myself. Downloading music illegally is not good, friends.)

Comprando en Laredo, TX

Porque comprar en Laredo no es como lo pintan

Doesn't this guy have the face that he just committed a very serious upsy?

-"Uy, I want to buy that state of the art, 1990, refurbished Lasonic stereo, pero nomas traigo pesos".

Don't you hate when that happens.

Man, now I feel like doing some downtown shopping. Vamos?

Tano_ Jado

You might have seen this picture on other blogs, but I just had to re-post it on here for I find it somewhat funny. It seems local hooligans/criminal kids, defaced and graffitied the political sign of my favorite baseball player turned politico. Tano_jado (esta enojado) sure goes over well, especially after his political loss. Now someone please arrest and punish the culprits please.
