I know there are some very nice ones and I have met both in my travels in Mexico. I would not go back. They have terrible hygiene practices and you may think they are quite dense but it's just that many never got out of their small towns and their brains were understimulated. They are hard workers though but not for things requiring sharpness. |

To have so much hate in your heart, it must be a such a bad feeling to be that kind of a person. to feel so bad about your self you need to be so cruel towards another race of HUMANS by the color of their skin their culture.I am sure you have not amounted to much in your life. tell me what have you invented ?

BBQ'd Cabrito is pretty awesome too, lean and healthy and half the price of lamb! The men aren't afraid to sing a soft romantic sexy love ballads into their ladies ears too! Quite romantic little guys when they turn it on! :) They also usually don't put their horses away wet, so you often get a backrub before sex and then another backrub after sex.........*swoon!* I have always admired anyone that can speak & understand 2 languages with the same brain. I've tried and it is pretty tough to do. My best is counting numbers/money in 5 languages but I can't converse in any day to day languages but english. |

LifeInDeath User ID: 844726 United States 01/26/2012 05:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The ancient Mayans (who lived in what is now Mexico and whose descendants are now Mexicans) invented what is still among the most accurate calendars ever devised, certainly the most accurate in use in the world at its time. They even understood the 26,000 year precesion of the Earth which is how they define the long count in their long count designation of ages (which is causing all this 2012 end of the world fuss right now). Also, they invented Mexican food, for which I will be eternally happy and grateful. Really craving some huevos rancheros right about now.
