Can we build a wall around Texas? I don't want Mitchell to boing my mom. Better to build a wall around your Mom to make her completely unboingable.

I propose we just nuke all fifty states and be done with it.
That would shut 'em all up.

And start over with Puerto Rico? I'm down with that. It is Progress Island, after all.

I know some really good restaurants in Old San Juan. And the fort and cemetery are worth a look.

Real fried plantains...oh my. Sometimes I miss the Caribbean.
Then again, my liver is happier here.

We always had Thanksgiving at my aunt's house, so I don't think of turkey and dressing. I think of sofrito, plantains, random-animal-bone soup (which is delicious)...and mobs of Puerto Rican people hugging and kissing me before I can even remember their names.

The immigration guys there were the nicest and the Subway guy never forgot what I liked on my sandwich. And a really good folk duo used to play in the KFC next to the pharmacy where I stocked up on cheap Dr. Pepper. It was worth it to go in for some mashed potatoes and biscuits jut to listen to them.
That's another weird thing-why is the KFC in the islands miles above what it is in the states? Even the one in the shithole end of Christiansted was amazing.

If you've ever been to St. Croix, you'll likely agree that shithole is a bit kind.

If you were coming to Texas, this would have been the scene. And my wife's amarillos and tostones rock. That's another weird thing-why is the KFC in the islands miles above what it is in the states? Even the one in the poopiehole end of Christiansted was amazing. Get this, the KFC in FREAKING INDIA is miles above what we have here. They add Marsala, and the sandwiches are more like chicken fritters because the breast meat isn't overplumped with hormones (I'm assuming). Don't look at it, though, the meat does have a gamey tinge.

You should have the ma'am box up food for me and Mumms. I am so jealous.
And now I actually have another reason to go to India besides my love of lassi and disco bhangra.
