Horribly inappropriate music unless I've missed some news, and we're in mourning for Mexico being wiped off the face of the Earth or something.

One of my degrees was Spanish, and while not very intellectually stimulating, I did find some old books from the 1960s about Mexico that were Time-Life or maybe Readers Digest that were filled with some of the most wonderfully, bright pictures of Mexico and her people from different walks of life, experiencing different emotions. This reminded me of them.

Some of the pictures looked like Taxco.
What an incredible place.
