Feliz Cinco de Mayo, that’s Happy May 5th | North America, All of It

Happy Cinco de Mayo, the day when Mexicans get to act like the Irish and everybody acts like Mexicans.  And by Mexicans, I mean “Mexicans.”

Do Mexicans go to Taco Bell?  No.  But a million drunk college kids will tonight while they act authentico, the same college students that get blitzed off Irish Car Bombs on St. Patrick’s day, just like true “Dubliners.”

So what should you do?  Whatever you want.  Holidays are excuses, and that’s what makes them great.

Have a margarita, eat a taco, enjoy the melting pot that is America, and rethink your stance on the border fence.  You really want less of this fantastic culture around?  God bless North America — all of it.
