Saturday Chuckle

While I was in El Paso with some free time, I gots the Jones for some true Mexican chow.

I walked across the border to Ciudad Juarez and promptly got lost in this nice quiet little neighborhood.

Spotted this great Tree House this dad built in the back yard for his kids.

It's so nice to see parents that care.

...you left the "relative safety" of El Paso and got lost in Juarez?

Dear Eight Pound, Six Ounce, Newborn Baby Jesus, donít even know a word yet, just a little infant, so cuddly, but still omnipotent...
...please watch over JJ so he doesn't wake up in a bathtub full of ice missing a kidney !!

So - how do we know that you aren't an imposter ??
How do we know that the real JJ isn't being held captive in that red brick brick tree house ??

Suspicious set of events here - a long time ago, Johnny Cash got sidetracked in El Paso, Stopped to get himself a map - and everything went downhill from there.


Dude - street tacos are awesome - but they aren't worth losing a kidney to an underground organ harvester !!!

On second thought - if the red sauce was done right - it was probably worth the risk.

They looked at it and felt sorry for you and put you on their list of future customers.
