This Chicago Bar Wants you to Bash Trump on Cinco de Mayo

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ Leave a comment

Chicago, the city with not one but Two Donald Trump toilets, is the proud host of the upcoming #ThumpTrump Cinco de Mayo Bash, a fiesta organized by a Lakeview beer & bourbon bar featuring a giant Trump piñata. Like Mr. Trump would say, I think it’s terrific to give Chicagoans a chance to bash the Republican presidential front-runner, too. (Why would Mexicans have all the fun?) I don’t know … Continue reading This Chicago Bar Wants you to Bash Trump on Cinco de Mayo

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ Leave a comment

Awwww, Cinco de Mayo. No matter how many bizarre holidays Americans come up with, Cinco de Mayo will forever be my favorite one.

It’s Cinco de Mayo! Time to Mix Drinks That Make no Sense

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ 1 Comment

I hate Cinco de Mayo in the U.S., not so much because it’s a reminder of how clueless people are about Mexican history, but because it is also the time to market some of the stupidest, senseless food & drink concoctions of all times. Well, actually I think Bud Light’s Lime-A-Rita and Straw-Ber-Rita are kind of … Continue reading It’s Cinco de Mayo! Time to Mix Drinks That Make no Sense

Just in Time for Cinco de Mayo: Taco Bell Eatery Will Serve Mexican Car Bombs

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ Leave a comment

Speaking of Mexican things that make no sense, this blog’s Gringo West Coast Correspondent just informed me that Taco Bell is testing a restaurant concept that -among other things- will be serving Mexican Car Bombs. See? I had to learn about this by a non-Mexican person, because last time I checked, my people had no … Continue reading Just in Time for Cinco de Mayo: Taco Bell Eatery Will Serve Mexican Car Bombs

Temporary breast tattoo company TaTaToos is so excited about Cinco de Mayo, it has come up with a culturally-relevant line of tattoos that promise to make your holiday -what else?- spicier. I’m not sure what’s more depressing; if saying “tatas” instead of tetas, or having you celebrate the Battle of Puebla by imprinting some Spanish-language copy on … Continue reading This Company Wants me to Celebrate ‘Cinco de Mayo’ by Tattooing My ‘Ta-Tas’

Kobe Bryant’s ‘Mexican Blanket’ Nike Shoes, Not as Cool as ‘Cinco de Mayo’ Sneakers, but they’re OK

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ Leave a comment

I totally missed this (it must be the exhaustion from working extra hours doing nothing) but the almighty Kobe Bryant finally released the $110 Mexican Blanket Nike shoes, which -as everybody knows- are as cozy and sporty as a real Mexican blanket; except that you can buy a Mexican blanket in any Mexican flea market … Continue reading Kobe Bryant’s ‘Mexican Blanket’ Nike Shoes, Not as Cool as ‘Cinco de Mayo’ Sneakers, but they’re OK

Wyandotte to Celebrate Cinco de Mayo on Cuatro de Mayo

~ Mi Blog es tu Blog ~ Leave a comment

How many Mexicans does it take to organize a Cinco de Mayo party in Wyandotte, Michigan? Apparently, zero. [I’m sure my people would have seriously objected to holding a May 5th celebration on May 4th.] Too bad organizers didn’t consult with this blogger beforehand. I could have given them an awesome tagline for their event: … Continue reading Wyandotte to Celebrate Cinco de Mayo on Cuatro de Mayo
