And what a trip this has been! Yesterday, the Colombian president, delayed a much planned and dangerous rescue of hostages in the jungle, so that Mr. McCain would be in Bogota when the news was announced. I guess we know who El Presidente is pulling for in the November election. That only cost Mrs. McCain a $150,000 donation to President Uribe's favorite charity in the Cayman Islands to make sure that this historic moment of victory took place with McCain and Uribe together on stage and in front of the cameras. A bargain, I'm sure, compared to what it would have cost to do the same bit of political theater in Japan or in Belgium. I, of course, maintained a low profile at the back of the stage. I did happen to glance out into the crowd and noticed a man who looked strangely familiar jumping up and down, waving his sombrero, and bellowing "Senor Lemuel! Senor Lemuel!" I remember him now. He was one of my <strike>drug mules</strike> technicians when I was here several years ago on a business trip. I pretended to get a cell phone call and turned away. Since I had the phone out, I called security and had them drag him out of the crowd, instructing them to not beat him with their iron pipes (for old time's sake) and into an unmarked van. They drove away at high speed - problem solved! Today, we are in Mexico. More smiles, more waves to the crowds of adoring peasants, more pollo burritos, more time in the toilet. It will be good to get back home. Hola , mi amigos , salutaciones desde soleado México! And what a trip this has been!

SallyHusseinMutant, only Bob Dylan and Joan Baez count, unless there has been some recent imaginative cover of the song. The line, I think, is Spanish boots of Spanish leather, certainly not Made in China boots of Spanish leather.

Or has it (gasp) been hanging in the babysitter's closet since 1969? Maybe someone should run a background check on the babysitter. ASHM, can’t you still get those outfits on ebay?
