Not. Going. To. Happen!

There are too many Mexicans here that have no desire to go back to Mexico or see this place become Mexico. There invested too much to get out of the place.

#11 locally we refer to our store as 'Wal-Martinez'

the overhead announcements are in Spanish, and then repeated in English.

the wife and i stopped shopping there over a year ago, but good friend still does business there.
