ï¿½Feliz Cinco De Mayo!

Michael · Post by **Michael** » Wed May 05, 2004 8:08 am

Just wanted to extend greetings to all of our Mexican Pethead friends... I'm not posting this in the language areas because I don't ACTUALLY speak Spanish.

I certainly I spelled "Happy Cinco de Mayo" correctly!

For the American/other nationality Petheads who might not know what this is... it's a holiday similar to the American 4th of July or the Canadian Canada Day (which is July 1, I believe). They are celebrating a military victory in 1862, just like in America we celebrate a victory in 1776.

Everybody have Taco Bell today to celebrate!

Well, this happened: The five of May the mexican army figth against the french army in the city of Puebla, center on Mï¿½xico, 'cause France feel the wish of take the country and eat it. The mexican army -with no preparation and no armo- defeated the army french and mark a date to remember in our calendar. Well, yesterday, the school don't open and a lot of works close the doors. In a few words, now the conmemoration is a free day for a lot of people. Cinthya and I wake up late, eat whit my parents and rest all evening. I celebrate the day watchin a footbal game -futbol pa' los cuates- and Cinthya look 'Mirada de Mujer' in the nigth screaming to the TV -jejejejejeje-. Well.
Thanks Michael for the congratulation for all petheads in Mexico. Bless to you.

Eloisa Palacios!!! ï¿½Quï¿½ dices? El asunto de los pasteles fue el inicio de la guerra, no el asunto en Puebla. Aparte fue un asunto de impuestos. Jejejeje... maybe that 's the reason that you need an extra school day. Salutes. ï¿½Quï¿½ te has hecho? Ya no escribes...

Sorry for write in spanish. Elo needs someone who refresh her mexican historical memory.

LOLOL, Come on!!! give me a break!!, the last time i had a formal history class was in elementary school!!!!!!!!.

Ok, you said it was the beginning of a war, of what war then? i gotta check my books EEK.

It was the war between the French Bakers and the Mexican Army!
The Generals didn't understand what a Baquette was and thought it was a weapon, so they destroyed all the French Bakeries!

This is my attempt at translating:

Eloisa Palacios!!! What are you saying? The matter of the cakes was the start of the war, not the matter in Puebla. Besides that, it was a matter of taxes. Hehehehe... tal vez sea la razï¿½n de que necesites un dï¿½a extra de escuela. Saludos. What have you done to yourself? You no longer write...

Lo siento por escribir en espaï¿½ol. Elo necesita alguiï¿½n que pueda refrescar su memoria de la historia mexicana.
