Cross-border sporting events

Here are all our non-pony characters: Spike the Dragon (David Vain) and the Ladybugs (Ally Smith,Corrine Atlas and Jamie Critelli).

First off,Congratulations to the Indianapolis Colts on their Superbowl victory. My boss made me say that.

I had the interesting experience tonight of watching the Superbowl in 2 different countries in 2 different languages. I watched the first half in our hotel in El Paso,and then the second half in a bar in Juarez,Mexico in Spanish. Jamie and I decided to go into Mexico tonight with our castmate Danny Mendoza for some authentic Mexican food. Of course over there they just call it "food". Danny was actually born in Mexico and still retains Mexican citizenship,although he's been a legal US resident since he was a little boy. Since he also speaks fluent Spanish,he was able to find out where the "nicer" part of Juarez was away from the seedy shops right over the border,and also find a taxi that would take us there without overcharging the 2 gullible Americans. Had a lovely meal and am now back at the hotel avoiding packing.

Denver tomorrow.
