Think I'll put the fryer in the back of the truck... so if anyone has something they need boiled in oil... give us a holler.

For a more realistic version of the Cinco de Mayo holiday... read this: http://www.vivacincodemayo.org/history.htm
But I like the version Treblehook sent me:
Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the
condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.This would
have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to NewYork. The ship hit
an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery,
were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.The
National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.
