On Vacation
(No Ratings Yet)
Loading ...I’ve been on vacation for a bit, but I just wanted to drop a quick note to say all is well. I’m visiting family in Texas, and it’s been quite pleasant. However, it’s hotter and muggier than the 5th circle of Hell, and I need outta here like yesterday. As much as I bitch and complain about not having central A/C in Mexico, it’s another thing altogether when one’s A/C unit simply can’t keep up with the heat. Unless there are conduits of liquid nitrogen running through the walls, 2-story houses (such as my parents’) should be banned here. To add insult to injury, there have been uncharacteristic (but welcome) rains as of late, so there are also mosquitoes-of-prey swooping about. These insect-birds do not confer disease; they give anemia.
Now that Michael Moore has shown that it is OK to go to Cuba, I thought I’d share this picture I found. I might still write my Sicko review, but for now, enjoy this Cuban anti-tobacco public health poster, before they put the lettering on it, anyway:
I’ll write when family stuff settles down or I rehydrate, whichever comes first.

I had several thoughts upon seeing that photo: a) if that guy is that old, he deserves a cigar; b) that is one freaking HUGE blunt; c) [insert juvenile phallic comment here]. Take your pick.

Well my first choice would obviously be (c), however (and it seemed this was a horibble oversight in the original post), that cigar-weiding person above IS IN FACT A WOMAN!! I’ll let that soak in for a bit, then I’ll be back for a real catch-up post.
That’s for stopping by!
