If I still lived in LA, me and my homies would be doing a carne asada lunch at Olvera Street.  Have a good one NCKA'ers.

Art G and Pacifico...because I love you guys  :smt058.......I fired up my lawn mower for a few seconds to honor you both :smt002
Although my land lord was clearly dissapointed to see that I didn't mow the lawn....I simply told him that Filipinos don't mow....we carry airline baggage...coz that's how we roll  :smt045

Thanks Primo, I'm proud to have been honored in such a way.   :smt003

As for me, I don't really partake in what Cinco De Mayo has mostly become...a reason to drink Corona and apparently a reason to play air guitar (according to wikipedia).

If I'm going to celebrate something I'd much rather celebrate something like Los Niños Héroes(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ni%C3%B1os_H%C3%A9roes) who I believe better represent some aspects of the culture.
