As we here in Arizona (and Gollum/Smiguel) all know... one does not simply walk into Mexico.

I have no idea who that is or what he is supposed to be doing. Too "esoteric" for me! LOL

made me lol..

I remember when I was 8 or 9 and my little brothers were 4 and 5 we took a trip to Del Rio, TX and while there we went into Mexico. Ciudad De Acuna had street vendors everywhere and my little brother saw one that had some silver and turquoise rings for sale and excitedly asked "How much is this? I have 5 dollars!"
and the guy says "Special for you - 5 dollars!"

To this day we tease him about that and that was 40 years ago. But he has become a better negotiator.

That day, though, he was NOT the Lord of the rings.
