Monterrey Supplemental: Beer and Miscellaneous Updates. Resurrected Post.
June 26, 2016 Monterrey Supplemental: Beer. And Miscellaneous Updates When we gringos think of Mexican beer, we think of thumbing a wedge of lime into a bottle of watery lager, preferably while sitting by the beach or floating in the swimming pool.

June 12, 2016 Lesser Problems In the grand scheme of the things, the sweeping panorama of mankind’s struggles, it isn’t much of a problem. “Minuscule” gives it too much credit.
