Thinking of buying me another ride

I always wanted an '86 regal. Its crazy. Don't hate. I'm going to buy it and trick it out too. 

 

Who knows, I might even give you a ride. Just easy on the trash talking.

Tome Schlitz: Little Joe y la Familia

I ran across a song titled "Tome Schlitz" that I had found on a forum some time back. It's a Little Joe song. Looks like it was recorded sometime in the mid to late 70s. I had a couple of cold ones, during a carne asada, with my father and we played this song several times. Made a video slide show with some random pictures I found online. I'm getting thirsty now. Tomen Schlitz people!

 

Menudo Bowl

I'm saddened to admit that I will be unable to attend the Menudo Bowl. I had hoped on going and snapping some pics for the ol' blog, but, due to work, I won't be attending the Bowl.  Send me some pics of the event if you have some to share with everyone.

Wanting

Wanting

Wanting the forbidden

opens the soul to

These uneasy

of lust, formulating uncontrollable

wants that are unfathomable.

Lack of control

       is driving

sanity away and allowing

       insanity

to creep in and take control.

It leaves emptiness, false hope,

false love, false dreams

jamboozie

It's WBCA time again. Jamboozie  is coming up on the 29th. I donlt normally attend these events, but this yr I'm going. I need a date though. I'm taking applications.

La lana

Some local establishments are big on superstitions. I can respect that. I especially love the borreguito next to the cash register. Kaching! Vamos a ganar mucha lana.

Winter "Blizzard" Hours

More fun from Naturall Yogurt over on the southside: Winter Hours

It seems that the good people over at Naturall Yogurt are expecting heaving blizzards this winter for they have altered their hours of operation in anticipation of the heavy snowfalls. No sense in getting caught in two feet of snow just 'cuz you had a frito pie craving. I'm glad they're keeping it real.

Carne Asada

Fellow blogger, Que Fregados, featured a crazy youtube video of some guy going off on 'carne asada'. I thought it was a bit funny and decided to give the video some more play on this site. Watch it or go to Fregados blog and view the others by the same uploader. Let's make it go Laredo viral!

Check out the Laredo Parks and Rec shirt on this guy. At least he has guts. 

"Una carnita, aqui ya sabes para los youtube members, you now for keeping it totally mexican-american, latino, hispanic, border living, laredo, TX!"

No Freebies

 

Saw this sign at a local restaurant, Naturall Yogurt, on the southside Loop. I don't have anything to say about it. It is what it is.

Random Movie Quote of the week

From a movie, but my personal creed that I live by:

"Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pu*sy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days." 

  Give the title of the movie and you win my admiration.
