Yonder Lies It

  • He descubierto que el Mezcal no sirve para las actividades mentales. Es una bebida bruta. Si tomo whisky eso ayuda, no sé porque, ni me pregunten porqué. Sólo sé que Mezcal no sirve para disfrutar un rato la computadora. Or at the very least it takes a while before one can enjoy the effects of…

  • Smell it like it is: Sabotage

    The president’s office said Thursday that all available evidence suggested bad weather led to a helicopter crash that killed Public Safety Secretary Ramón Martí­n Huerta, Federal Preventive Police Commissioner Tomás Valencia, five other passengers and a crew of two. The fact of the matter is that arms smuggling from the US into México has increased…

  • ¡Gracias Aztlán!

    Ok, first and foremost my deepest apoligies to Pachuco, who surprisilingly enough, agrees with me that returning territories to proper México contravenes the very fabric of the Xicano ens But señot Martí­nez, what are you apoligizing for? Sí­, that is correct, forget my digressions. It is a custom I drag over from spanish. It is…

  • for those not in the know

    Ana Castillo is blogging, seemingly, full time. Viva Chicago ese! While you are at it go watch a video that my conciudadano Ilich Sabotage made. It’s a fictional account of middle class drug dealers in Tijuana, it’s just as if it were the bare truth ese.

  • a world wide vision

    It did good to distant myself from my Xicanismo. I realize that writing the stuff that I would normally write in spanish in english will be of little appeal to the english blogsphere. There isn’t any interest yet in mixing the problematic of border xicanismo like mine that includes both english and spanish as its…

  • How Federico Campbell is so dead wrong

    One of the characteristics of the 70 year PRI reign in México was its alliances with the cultural elite. If the neocons of the Bush clan in the beginning began to blame the malaise that affected American society on Hollywood only to then raise ‘acceptable’ cultural icons at a later stage (for example when elections…

  • war

    the thing that bothers me about the war the US is waging: the curtailing of civil liberties in the name of the war. Curious how ineptitude on the top always means more repression for those of us on the bottom. Because that is what it is. Government wasn’t inteligent enough to predict an assault on…

  • the happiest man alive

    The day he died was the happiest in his life. The answer to the why is simple. He made it, he made it without harming no one and best yet, he would no longer pose a threat to harm no one. He was dead.

    Creo que hay que saber escuchar. Mas si se trata de lo que uno mismo se dice. Hoy me hago caso. Descanso. Me alejo de esta ventana y mejor me dedico a la lectura.

  • Este hogar es católico

    dieses Heim ist katholisch. En Tijuana ocurre una guerra religiosa sin precedentes a espaldas de todos. La ciudad del pecado, la ciudad que capos, electos y religiosos gobiernan cual triunvirato romano. Y son los católicos los que sienten el acoso y algunos, de las más altas jerarquias religiosas allá en el terre, sienten que les…
