Gladys! It was on water–the fire was on the water! You should have seen it.

If there’s one thing this country can do right, it’s fire. They’re still messing up on making the Mai Tais just the way I like, and their way of speaking Mexican ain’t nothing like that J-Lo album. (And if anyone would know how to speak Mexican, it would be her!!!) So there’s obviously some sort of illiteracy epidemic going around. Also: poverty.
Personally, I don’t know about you, but when I’m in a place for an extended period of time and on “vacation,” I don’t want to think twice about the “realities” of the “world.” I just want to eat Cheetos and get my nails done. Luckily for the country, the dollar still buys you a thing or two here… if not, with all of these poor people yapping about inflation, I’d just have to leave! I mean, tourists are like gods: they descend upon countries, sprinkling money like confetti. They’re not taking up lots of jobs. And if you’ll just look at how many people were gainfully employed during the Olympic torch relay, when it did what the kids call “hitting the streets,” you’ll see that there are plenty of jobs to go around here.

And then later, when I went home, I found a nice, juicy Latin man in my bathroom!!!!! And they say people who do good to the world are the only ones who get good shit outta life? Ha!
Do I seriously need to tell you yet again that life is good? If you don’t believe me, just check in your bathroom. If it’s anything like mine, there’ll be a Latin man inside–and the “Olympic torch” will find time to “make a delivery” to your “neck of the woods.” Afterwards, you will both “have flan” and possibly “empanadas” and find time to listen to music. And life will rock on.
