In case you’ve ever wondered how to get my attention, this is the answer right here. I really don’t remember where I was going with that comment because I keep staring at that picture and it totally screws with my train of thought.

Moving along, we’ve got fresh photos courtesy of the NRG Crew. New stuff from Voss, Yacht Club, and Mint. Shout outs to Ram for hooking us up.

Cinco de Mayo @ Yacht Club

When Erika dropped off the photos from Yacht Club this week, my first question was “what’s up with the sombreros?”. I actually forgot that May 5th = Cinco de Mayo. For the record, I failed Spanish in high school so there ya’ go.

If you didn’t already know, May 5th is not Independence Day in Mexico (that’s September 16th) though half the people I asked thought it was.

In fact, Cinco de Mayo celebrates the day in 1862 when the Mexican army, under the command of General Ignacio Zaragosa (Texan by the way) and Colonel Porfirio Diaz, defeated the much larger and better equipped French army at the Battle of Puebla.

These days, a well trained troop of Girl Scouts could probably kick the crap out of the French. But during the 19th century, Napoleon III’s French army was a dominant force in the world, so this was a pretty big deal in 1862. Let’s see who remembers this stuff next year. There will be a quiz.

Seriously though, why are there so many Mexican holidays anyway? I swear there is a Mexican holiday every single month except June and July and that doesn’t count because Summer is just one big extended holiday for everybody. Don’t believe me? Check out MEXonline.com.

Shout outs to Ram, Javi, Billy and the entire Yacht Club gang! Peace!

If you go to the Yacht Club on a Friday night and they make you stand in line, it’s not because they don’t like you. It’s because yes…there are that many people inside. Be patient. With all the hotties in the club, it is totally worth the wait.

Where did all these damn cars come from? Doesn’t anybody in the Valley carpool? Gas is almost $3 a gallon but looking at the parking lot you’d swear that everybody brought their own car. What’s up with that?

Anyway, congrats to Ram and all the fellas. Hell yeah! NRG is holding it down on Friday nights at the Yacht Club.
