Damn Google Ads
Sometimes the stupid Google ads can get it all messed up. The google ad on the right --->
can sometimes go haywire and start advertising about the craziest things. Case in point, the picture below.
Click on picture above to enlarge it and right below the playlist is the ad in question.
Google is advertising cheap "asesinatos" in Laredo ! WTF? I know Laredo has a bad reputation, but come the fugde on! It was just too funny. Assasination ads via-Google. That's why you should never trust those silly ads, just too damn annoying. So if you want a quick, cheap hit on that guy you cant stand in the office, go to google. They know where all the low prices for asesinatos in Nvo Laredo are at! Ouch.
"Pan" on the run
Blogging about bullshit topics can workup an appetite really fast. Good thing that Superior Bakery makes some damn good pan dulce! They are over in the Guadalupe neighborhood and they know their bread, soft and fresh, right out the oven. I enjoyed me this concha after a hard days blogging. Man can't live off blogging alone; we need some sweet bread to keep us going, too.
Damn, sure looks tasty don't it? Have a bite! BTW, im going on a Pano run, im running low on calories.
Pepsi, The Choice of west Laredo
I'm a Pepsi lover myself, so imagine my utter delight when I spotted a Pepsi machine outside the front yard of a local west side residence. They must have had me in mind when they placed this colossal structure of the gods smack in the middle of their yard for everyone to revere and pay homage. Another reason yet, to love the Laredo's west side. Choice of a new generation.

Laredo Bridge Webcams
Ever want to go to Nvo. Laredo but you dont know how packed the bridge will be? Well, try logging into the city of Laredo website where you can monitor the traffic via webcam. There you can view the traffic on the local bridges and even on the Mexican side. Then you can see if its worth going over to el otro lado to visit abuela, buy those morning after pills, or stopping by Hamburguesas el Rio for some tasty eats. Mmm good. You can view the cams here.
Evelyn Motor Inn circa 1961
Drove by the Evelyn MotorInn last weekend and it seems they have re-opened for business. Sure would love to stop by and have some good eats there. In any case, I came across a pic on Flickr that is supposed to be the Evelyn back in 1961 when it was called Dodd's. I wanted to share this neat pic with everyone.
If you have old pics of Laredo you wish to share, send them over to us so we can post em!
Laredoans can't spell
Yeah, we can't spel to save our lives. "Spelling is for nerds," I had a friend tell me once. Apparently, the people that wrote this sign on the front of their store didn't have spelling as a number one priority. Downtown is just so fun! Brands galore, but don't expect such frivolous things like correct spelling. That's for the birds... Laredo loves fashion, but not so much spelling.
I didn't take this picture, for I found it on flickr and I thought it was just too fun. I can't seem to recall what street this store is at exactly, but I'm fairly sure its over by Riverdrive Mall (or whatever it's called now). I will buy the first round of beer to the first person that tells me the exact street address of this gem store.
BTW, props to the original photographer.
P.S. I always have typos and spelling errors in my blog posts. Just don't look to hard..o te vas a volver ciego.
Ya Llego el Calor!
