Dining at the West Coast Tacos truck

Those percents with the decimal points in them are a bit tricky.  One percent is a hundredth, so one percent of 26,152 is 261.52, rounded up to 262, and .76 of that is about three quarters, so call it oh about 200, hardly enough to support a restaurant, but maybe the people of Cheboygan, living near an international border, are a cosmopolitan crowd, eager to taste the cuisine of many lands.  But a little internet research reveals that they are not, the most exotic appears to be Thai, although there is a Mexican food truck.  There are a couple Mexican restaurants in Petoskey, where I believe your daughter lives.  You might want to sample one and try the food you will be forced to eat every day, and extra special hot sauce for swamp gringos, once they take over.

I do wonder where you read about them taking over though.  Those must be some peculiar tv stations and newspapers, I never see that.  Like I said they are about a third of the population here, but by and large they stay away from the ballot box and their aldermen are generally toadies of the mayor and their other elected officials are feathering their own nests just like the Poles and the Irish.

What I meant to say was that Kasich won in the 'moderate' lane of candidates, the one with Rubio and Bush, Cruz has the tea party/evangelical lane all to himself now that the Huck and Icky Rick (yes, I love nicknames) are gone, and the republicans have a new lane this year, the Trump lane, talk about tearing the party a new asshole.

I don't think it is up to a single attorney general to declare Cruz presidential.  You know his opponents would find some other attorney general to declare him unpresidential.  I think it has to go all the way to the supremes and by then Cruz may be finishing up his second term and we will all be going to some holy roller church every Sunday and Wednesday evening, and there will be somebody there inspecting us to see if our shoes are shined and our buttons polished.

I was looking up amendments last night.   The last one passed was in 1992 delaying laws effecting Congressional salary from taking effect until the next election.  It was first proposed in 1789.  Wow.  I have no memory of that. 

The last one before that was 1971, the 18 year old vote.  I believe that was done to sooth restive youth who were being drafted at that age.  I don't remember that there was much furor over it at the time.  You would think, if you lived on Mars, that they could do something like that now with the natural-born thing, but if Obama proposed it, it would be treason, and I can't see the republicans proposing it because so many of their constituents are afraid of furriners taking over.

Watched the dems debate last night, it was a lot more civil and issue oriented then the reps, so it was kind of boring.  I will be watching Saturday's debate (no I never get tired of those things) and i will give you a report on Monday.
