#4  El Chingaso, I put your link in an html thingy. When you post a comment, there are a series of letters and icons at the bottom of the blue box. The one of the world with binoculars -- just to the left of the square brackets -- will do that for you if you don't do html. Just type a few words, highlight them, then click on the world icon and paste the URL in the box that pops up. Mr. Pruitt designed it for hopeless end-users like me, so you should have no trouble. ;-)

your friendly moderator,

Corruption sensationalized by media does not mean Mexico is a failed state.
