Man, I don't get to post much lately. I, as have KeyRose, BTB and other bloggers, am considering suspending this humble blog. At one time, believe it or not, LaredoTejas was coined "Laredo's Most Prolific Blog" by fellow Gateway city blogger Bordertown Blues. Nowadays, the posts are pretty rare. I haven't really tried to analyze it too much, it's just been that way recently.
With that being said, I would, at least, like to relate some Classic Raul Salinas. Last night, at TAMIU, I attended the premier US screening of Milagro. Naturally, the Mayor was given a chance to speak. He stuck to the correct theme for the evening (the screening) for a minute or two and then: Classic Raulito.
He started raising his voice and yelling about how "no matter how many bars you have on your shoulders, you're not going to insult the greatest congressman Laredo, Texas USA has ever had". Although I used quotes, I'm am paraphrasing but that was the essence of his rant. Apparently, he was talking about Henry Cuellar and his recent scuffle with a couple of high-ranking Generals. Salinas didn't stop to consider that probably very few people were even aware of this.
He continued off-topic for another few minutes before finally returning to the subject at hand. Once again, our beloved mayor had managed to hijack another local event.
Nooooo!!!
ReplyDeleteOh well. Maybe we should make it a trifecta and suspend all three blogs at the same time (KR mentioned he also was on the verge of bailing out last week).
When is the next Mayoral election and who would be a better candidate than he?
ReplyDeleteMaybe you're thinking too deeply on the content of your blogs. Keep it simple and make it enjoyeable for you to do. I for one enjoy your blog, Orale! JS
ReplyDeleteHe's as mad as hell, and he's not going to take it any more!
ReplyDeleteMy nephew texted me last night asking me for the latest developments in politics. I'm really not sure why he wants to know since he's in another field of study. But it ties in to what you said about most people probably not knowing what's going on with Cuellar, and the two generals.
As far as blogging, I might take a page from KLDO and only blog Monday thru Friday.
One thing's for sure: The blog will be overhauled come January.

BTB, Anon, JS & KR, thanks to all of you for your feedback. I agree that maybe I should have more fun doing it - as I have at times. For example, I haven't used any of my corny cartoons for a while. KR, good points on the KLDO technique and I didn't know the blog was to be overhauled come January. Do you mean "the blog" in general or LMIB's La Sanbe? Again, thanks for the comments.

Maximiliano: When KR talks about overhauling "blogs" he is referring only to La Sanbe, LMIB. Of course, all other blogs will follow suit (check memo from BOLAS). Its like saying the sun (La Sanbe) will change just a little bit and expect nothing from the planets (that's us, by the way)
ReplyDeleteYou mock me. I will not be mocked!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm just going to clean up the blog's appearance, clean up the clutter.
Keyrose
La Sanbe > all other Laredo blogs.
ReplyDeleteJust sayin'
