MEXICOWANDERER

Americans have ZERO experience with authentic Mexican frijoles de la olla. Compared to the garbage that Americans and most urban Mexicans are eating these days, the real McCoy is as different as comparing Tony Roma ribs to a McSynthoBurger. It's the smoke flavoring, the uneven cooking leaving part of the pot contents soft and creamy and others making crusty beans that make this dish and genuine hand patted from field corn rolled by hand and cooked over a pottery slab and smoky fire tortillas something I can gladly feast on five meals a week.
Even citified tortillas and blender refried beans in Mexico taste like @#$%&!
When China cannot build a jet engine they sure as hell cannot build a good AGM battery. FOREIGN SUPERVISION and machinery is needed to build a decent Chinese AGM battery. China's new class of "silent" electric submarines USE BATTERIES MADE IN INDIA. Using EXIDE technology.
Workers Division Number 6502 in Smoking Tailpipe Dragon Factory number three cannot compete now or in my lifetime with Concorde battery. The entire product philosophy is different. Four Wal-Mart $60 tires versus a single $85 Michelin.
I need to buy an electrical tool. I have enough money to buy a forty dollar tool. I know better. The project can wait until I save and buy an eighty dollar tool. I have created enough needless land fill in my lifetime.
I love this analogy
I have purchased fifty dollar meals that were a bargain and have been ripped-off spending two dollars for lunch.
I am going to slip-on a pair of seventeen-year-old Dickies trousers, and go to work. Yeah thirty dollars hurt seventeen years ago -- but I got over it...
