Your one-stop shop for all things Latin/Hispanic/Mexican
Former FARC guerrilla hostage, Ingrid Betancourt this week was in Mexico City, presumably talking about kidnapping and stuff. But also -as shown here- she took the opportunity to mingle with some Catholic church guy and to pose next to a properly dressed virgin… unlike you-know-who.

Wondering what to get your familia in these times of economic uncertainty? How about a front-row ticket to see some real fighting between Mexican wrestling legends and a bunch of Americans dressed as Border Patrol agents?
No, people, this is no joke. San Francisco-based Pro Wrestling Revolution is making it all happen, and tickets are only, like, $10 apiece (almost the cost of a Chipotle gourmet burrito.)
Now, that is what I call a good deal… (and wrestling I can actually relate to.)
Long gone are the immensely funny days of Vicente Fox asking Fidel Castro to eat and then leave (“Comes y te vas”) during the 2004 Summit of Monterrey. Those leaders’ respective successors are now like BFF, and were spotted giggling and hugging each other pretty much all the time at this week’s Latin America and Caribbean Development Summit in Brazil.
Looks like time has come for “Comes y te quedas”.
