So...it's the 5th of May and we are all clamoring for the bars to have our Corona's and tequila in honor of Mexico's unlikely victory over France in 1862? An event that was 150(ish) years ago and while some Americans may have helped are we really obliged to celebrate? Or is this rather yet another reason to just simply get out and get drunk? Like St. Patrick's Day, Cinco de Mayo is really more of an excuse to drink than much of anything else. At least for Americans who can really only empathise with Mexico's plight with the French...seeing as they are still our allies rather than enemies. So, to all my friends who are out get their drink on tonight I say enjoy, be responsible and then claim to be Irish. We feel that it's a good night to drink as long as we're breathing :) (no offense to anyone intended...speaking from my own family generalizations)
Lol oh and for anyone wondering how Lucy ties into this story, Corona is her favorite beer :)
