What are the chances that you have that experience on May 5? I'm not a believer in celebrating that day.....it was an insignificant battle that had nothing to do with Mexico's independence. It was initiated by Anheuser Busch back in the 80s, so it's just another excuse for people to drink (as if that's needed) and for them to sell beer.
Anyway, really glad you're safe. Not sure how many people understood the humor in your post title, but I did! Nicely done!
