El corrido de Alberto Gonzalez

El corrido (ballad) is a Mexican folk genre, part oral history, part cultural myth. It was a sure thing that sooner rather than later, the saga of Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez would become the stuff corridos are made of. And here it is: a new corrido, to be moaned rather than sung. Ay.

El corrido de Alberto Gonzalez
By Lola la bloguera
Poor Alberto Gonzalez made his camino all the way to the top
His father was un borracho but his mama was requete wise
Al graduated from Harvard, was a Texas Supreme and knew about big planes
But then poor Alberto Gonzalez hitched his wagon to a poisonous bush
And although he made the White House and became the country's A.G.
his jefe, el patron The Decider kept him on a very short leash
Now the big caca has hit all the fans and Al gets kicked in el tush
The serious hombre de San Anton gets thrown to the lobos
all because he hitched his wagon to a poisonous bush
Ay ay ay, adios Al Gonzalez you'll go back to las siembras tejanas
Aunque republicano, once we were proud of you for all that you achieved
but it now seems you were too brown-nosed even for the White House
y ahora pronto to esperan potatos, tomatos and chiles picantes
but Lola just wonders what would Molly Ivins have said about all this
Ay, ay, ay. . .

Este corrido suena como si se puede cantar con la musica de Cielito Lindo.

LOVE the corrido. Mashing up the corrido with its 21st C counterpart, the blog post, is genius. However, note that not ALL of us were "proud" of "Al", responsible for wholesale slaughter of Latinos and Blacks in Texas when Dubya was Gov'nor.

CARO, I think what Lola means is that, as a rule, Latinos are proud of immigrants and children of immigrants who overcome the odds and succeed. The problem with Alberto Gonzalez is that, as the song says, he hitched his wagon to Dubya and becme a lambebotas.

They give kids in Haiti books and teach them.

Please check them out, they're real.

It would be awesome if you could help us

[url=http://cungmuagiatot.com/thoi-trang.html]Thoi trang nam[/url] is distinctive because it is a potent phenomenon affecting millions of people. We see so many cases in our every day lives, and it can serve as an significant reminder. When you start reading more, you will recognize all that is concerned and it could surprise you.

But most people have a decent perspective about many of the different results. Not only that, but it is entirely natural and usual to want to find what you are searching for. Here are just a couple of useful guidelines on this specific subject, and you can develop from that as you see fit.

The relative difficulties of women's and men's fashion

Both women and men could feel the demands of maintaining their clothing up-to-date and in season, yet men's fashion usually seems a lot less difficult. Of course, for both sexes, clothes and fashion options could be equally as delicate, and there are lots of'modern'items that can quickly become fashion faux pas - who can say they frequently see people running around in 70s flares? On the other side, men's fashion includes a few choice things that can exist forever - which man is likely to look out of place with a good-quality, tailored suit, for instance? Pick basic cuts, colours and fabrics and you'll never look out-of-place.

Why classic men's style is timeless

The classic man's suit has scarcely changed for over a hundred years. True, there are several versions for various functions, however they are all popular in their search for a clever, sharp look for the person. The great thing about traditional style for men is that it's simply elegant effectively neat. A well-groomed lady can typically appear his sharpest in a well-tailored suit, and this can be a testament to the design of such clothing. A suit will be used to work in many professions due to the professional search it provides to the individual, instilling a feeling of respect and confidence. Similarly a match will be worn to several social events, like a tuxedo to a black-tie affair. This amazing flexibility which allows suits to be utilized in nearly all situations is what gives it its classic border and a permanent devote men's fashion.

Modern developments in traditional men's fashion

Whilst classic men's designs can never be changed, it's interesting to observe that changes in men's fashion trends have produced certain traditional clothes back into fashion. The reputation of vintage clothing, specially, has taken back a wide-variety of classic types into men's wardrobes, such as that of the dandy gentleman. 'Dandy'is a term used to refer to men who dress yourself in a classic yet luxurious way, placing value on appearance and working in a refined approach. This tendency for almost'over-the-top'classic fashion for men is apparent from events including the'Tweed Run', where men and women of all ages dress in significantly Victorian-style clothing and take to the roads on vintage bicycles - with lots of the men wearing impressive mustaches! That is only one of many samples of data presenting the revival of such designs. Additionally, there are numerous sites on the web which concentrate on gentlemanly style - such as'The Dandy Project'and'Dandyism'- as well as complete web sites such as'The Art of Manliness'focused on providing articles on common men's fashion and grooming.

In summary, whilst certain issues with traditional men's style may be brought back as new movements, the basic garments that they derive from will never fall out of fashion.

"All it takes are a few basic outfits. And there's one secret - the simpler the better." - Cary Grant

LEDs, first developed in the early 1960s, produce light by moving
electrons through a semiconductor. Consumers "going green" have already begun
switching out their incandescent bulbs for compact fluorescents, which
are miniature full-sized fluorescents. Hopefully, with this guide and examples on
how to power 12 volt lights with solar panels at your home, you will be well on your way to having great lighting while saving energy in a cost-efficient manner.
