Another Friday, Another Vela

Went to another one of those big local fiestas on Friday. This one, however, was sponsored by Pemex--the national petroleum company so the Pemex wives were decked out in big jewelry and they were giving away cars (as a nationalized company often does . . . ) What can I say? I'm a sucker for free music, cheap beer, and the newly rich. God bless 'em.

They really should open nap stations for adults at these things.

Yes, for once I wasn't in the local gear except for the potato chip-sized earrings.


All the Pemex wives dressed up like those charming locals but with the added bonus of husbands on the take. Ha, ha! Just kidding Pemex, please don't riddle my body with bullets!
