It was about 20 years ago when I didn't know a single word of spanish - I turned to my co-workers at lunch and asked "When is cinco de mayo?"
I was met by stares that haunt me to this day.

This is a celebration that marks the time when the French came to collect money that a State in Mexico had borrowed. The Mexican state did not want to pay their debt, so they fought and defeated the French contingent. Nice...great thing to celebrate as a national holiday..."we did not pay our debt"!!!!
I always thought it meant cut the mayo in spanish.
The Indians are jsut reclaiming what the European-Anglo Saxon borrowed from them starting about 500 years ago

If you look back. We did not want to pay our gay british taxes among other things-so we decided to go againstt those german guyys with red and blue from london.
Yeah but being in disagreement over taxes is not the same as borrowing money, agreeing to pay it back, and then shooting and killing the people that loaned it to you when they ask for you to repay. Viva la Mexico.
