Well....JB has forbidden this...but i gotta quote Wikipedia....for those interested, search "Abelardo" and you will verify that the reason that a parrot was chosen was because of Mexico's Flag colors....

You should see Mexico City after a good rainy season! It looks so green!

Not any more, now they changed colors!
Some kind of gold for the whole car with lines of burgundy logos at the sides -well at least those authorized cabs-.

Ah, we should look each other up. I'm there as The_Mad_Swede ...

Ah, must have been going French or something there for a second, I guess. El Sueco Loco it is. :)
Victor also wrote: "I was just reading Asterix Legionnaire this past weekend... Talk about coincidences!"
Either that or just plain synchronicity, if we turn to Jung. ;)
More Victor: "Right now I'm rereading my favorite -almost obsessively- book: Night`s Master, a book by Tanith Lee... I absolutely love it!! -I always imagined the characters in JB's hands... that could be awesome!-"
Don't believe I've read any Lee, but I do have a HC omnibus with... I want to say The Wolf Tower trilogy (could that be right) sitting on one of my shelves among the stacks of thinsg yet to read.

Best not try to think about that too much, Al. Though I have to confess I do find the pics with the pillow and the kid together... somewhat disturbing. I'm just having a hard time seeing the kid's toy there.

OK, thanks, Moyer. Breathing much easier again...

Well, that's a good attitude, Moyer. Though I have to admit that your comment above that you "seriously doubt anyone at Warner Bros would allow something like that to go..." seems rather optimistic in today's climate all things considered. That said, the XXX-rated version of the pillow was VERY sinister, most of all because of the kid on the package. The sinister undertones there just gives me the creeps.
