Alegría Tapatía: August 2008

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, August 3, 2008. Los Altos Te Quiero. Según yo, there's no other place on earth more beautiful than Los Altos in the middle of the rainy season. Although the turquoise agave fields outlined with rust-colored soil are marvelous to behold, it's the generous and hospitable people that really make it worth the trip. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Alegría Tapatía: Salmonella Sandwich

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2008/07/salmonella-sandwich.html

Wednesday, July 2, 2008. You know me, always willing to put my life on the line in the name of journalism. After reading report after report about people freaking out about the salmonella tomatoes coming from Mexico I decided to be like "12 on Your Side" and take action. Alegría Tapatía went to the streets to see what it's actually like to eat a sandwich filled with killer Mexican tomatoes. The sandwich in question, served with a side of tasty lime and pepper potato chips. View my complete profile.

Alegría Tapatía: One crazy bag lady at a time.

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2008/07/one-crazy-bag-lady-at-time.html

Tuesday, July 8, 2008. One crazy bag lady at a time. Contrary to popular belief, there are hippies in Mexico. They just get stared at and mocked by small children. On Saturday Mexico's Environmental Ministry orchestrated the planting of 9 million trees across the country.Organizations like Greenpeace are saying it wasn't good enough. I'm saying, it's one giant freaking leap. View my complete profile. Mexico City: Shadows and Primary Colors. One crazy bag lady at a time. Dancin in the Street.

Alegría Tapatía: May 2005

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html

Tuesday, May 10, 2005. Even the modern casinos pay homage to Macau’s cultural mix with luck 888 on the slot machines (in Cantonese the word for “8” signifies luck) and Japanese toilets and Karaoke rooms in the high-roller suites. Where else can you go to hear Mandarin, Cantonese, Portuguese and English spoken on the streets? But what then happens to the efforts to preserve China’s oldest Western colony? 8220;For many, the casinos will be the main draw, but the real interest of Macau is its history, food ...

Thursday, September 25, 2003. Don't I Know You? This skinny white guy sure can move. Published on Thursday, September 25, 2003. Ryan Britt, party crasher extraordinaire, shows off his "Bad" moves.

Britt: I'm the King of Pop. SPM: What's your major? SPM: As in, the history of pop? Britt: Or, the history of being bad? SPM: You do a lo...

Alegría Tapatía: January 2008

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Wednesday, January 16, 2008. Laura Wood Roldan was visibly pregnant with her first son went she tried to cross the Rio Grande in an inner tube. If she had been successful in crossing the border that time, perhaps she could have been living her life with her husband and two little daughters, happily ever after. They arranged all of their proper documents, packed up the two little girls and their wedding album and headed down to the U.S. Consulate in Ciudad Juarez. Laura says she did use another person&#82...

Alegría Tapatía: November 2003

http://alegriatapatia.blogspot.com/2003_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, November 13, 2003. Atkins, Jenny Craig and Simmons can take a hike; DDR is here. Published in The State Press on Thursday, November 13, 2003. Richard Simmons had it wrong all along, and I'm not just talking about those sparkly Hooters shorts he wears all the time. I'm talking about Sweatin' to the Oldies: What a boring waste of time. Perhaps if he'd met Mike Rak, Richie would have learned that Oldies ain't got nothin' on Dance Dance Revolution. SPM: Don't I know you? SPM: Holy Moley. I thin...
