here's your spanish lesson for the day - pronounced 'sink-o day my-o"
meaning, may 5th.
it's like the mexican version of st. patrick's day - everyone deems it a good enough reason to justify heavy drinking! or at least a reason to drink on a "work night". . .
well, i don't need a reason, but at least today i have an excuse ;)
5/5 is a stupid holiday because it doesn't celebrate independence, instead it celebrates a Mexican military victory over the French and that is just a useless reason for a holiday. If every country celebrated military victory over the French, then England and Germany would have the whole year off.
