Five By Five

Given this history of Cinco de Mayo, I fear it may lead to even more French-bashing in our current atmosphere. Oh, and speaking of French-bashing, please check out yesterday's Doonesbury and the English translation thereof. Okay, "conquer monkeys" is a bit mean-spirited, but not nearly as much as bashing an entire country just because they disagreed with our policies. I'm really pouty over this, I miss bashing them just 'cause they're French and not having it mean anything other than a stupid joke.
