I seem to recall that although it's celebrated today, the actual date of Mexican Independence is not May 5th.  Not sure of that, though...

 

Isn't that Guadalupe Day? IIRC. And FYI, Cinco De Mayo is the victory over the French, and the last time that a forgein power invaded this continent.

Well, that would explain it. It IS interesting how many people (including myself) have no idea of what Cinco de Mayo actually celebrates. Admittedly, I'm only in it for the fine Mexican cuisine and margaritas.

Well, I don't have any Corona or Cuervo, but I blasted the salsa music pretty loud. Yeah, I know salsa is Puerto Rican, but I can't stand Ranchera music. Puerto Ricans are pretty much the same anyways.

 

Please don't tell any of my Puerto Rican friends I said that last part. :ph34r:
