That's a long round-trip for a day's outing.

Just get in, or you still in "the field"?

Edit: Naaaa, you couldn't be back already from that far away.

San Diego?

Made it to Chula Vista Sunday night, then it's just 4 more hrs south. The new highway south of Ensenada speeds the trip considerably. Staying at the Hotel Villa in SQ (new wing, very clean) for a couple nights.

Just back from BC. Only 1 hour at the border, and without asking for Don Ladrillos special powers. Must be livin' right. Exercised great willpower to turn down: Elvis on velvet, cowboy hat, chiclets, sarape, a sweet pig sheriff, a 3 pack of Churros, universal car chargers and a very cool sun and moon ceramic...

Welcome home, world traveler!

If that's really your decorating style, we have a couple of places right here in the valley that can sell you that stuff directly, and save the hassle of "importing" it.

All hail our very own Don Ladrillo, who holds many of the same powers of Emperor Bob Hudson!

Other than why he would do that in the first place what I can't understand is how, after sawing one arm to the bone, was he able to do the same thing to the other?

Nice brawl in the Dodgers/Madres game last night. Greinke's out for a couple months with a broken clavicle.

Well, they will have some slow days after that. I suggest a way to get people back to HD, a special sale perhaps:

This weekend only, prices cut to the bone!!

Was this guy on some kind of drug induced psychotic episode?

Or is he afflicted with a self-mutilation psychological disorder? Such behavior is known to happen, rarely thank God. I first saw this in the medical journal of Jerry Springer.

I wonder if we will soon see saws and other sharp tools locked behind fences at HD like the spray paint?
