Cinco de Mayo

Feliz Cinco de Mayo! I guess you could say that my celebration began on Saturday when my brother Damon took us out for Mexican food, but I honored the actual day today by visiting our neighbor to the south via the Elvis movie Fun in Acapulco. According to the back of the DVD: "In Fun In Acapulco, Elvis heads south of the border, where he's fired as a boat hand, hired as a lifeguard and singer, admired by local beauties (including Ursula Andress) and inspired to jump off a 136-foot cliff. Put another way: he overcomes a fear of heights in spectacular fashion. Spectacular, too, are the scenic vistas and Latin-beat tunes. Dive in!" It was an enjoyable fiesta. (Even though I took a slight "eye-resting" siesta for a half hour or so during the movie. Woops! It's not like I haven't seen it before.) It's no worse than any other Elvis movie; and this one probably makes it into my top five. The fun of Mexico with Elvis music and none of that pesky swine flu. Ole!
