Happy Mother’s Day! – 2015

Wikipedia

There’s something about mothers, the bearers of life, the ultimate nurtures!

Let’s be honest, deep down we all love our mothers, even when we don’t get along with them. Mothers are the ones we want to comfort us and tell us that everything is going to be alright, whether they gave birth to us or not. There isn’t much more I can say without getting philosophical, and you guys didn’t sign up for that today. I will however state, that all mothers should be put on a pedestal and praised as much as possible, but especially on this day…unless they happen to be a bad mother. Even bad mothers are due some modicum of respect simply for what they are.

If you’d like, click the link below to see a video I made for my mother a few years back. Just to give you a reference for what’s going on in this video, I live in Virginia and she lives in Texas.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! – 2015

Wikipedia

Unfortunately, Cinco de Mayo is still not considered an official U.S. national holiday. If you ask me, without the Battle of Puebla, to which it commemorates, Texas and much of the southwestern U.S. could still be in the hands of the French today. Aside from the fact that I’m from Texas and share a small amount of Mexican culture, I think this holiday is another wonderful educational opportunity. Instead of going out and drinking heavily, you could use this time as an opportunity to learn about another culture. So with that I say…

Feliz de Cinco de Mayo!
