Mariachi's: introduction-new member of los ranchos

[Joseph Puentes <makas@...>]

well you know how I am. So when you all have sorted things out a bit 
more please give us a brief overview of who is related to who and how.
Shall we get go ahead and reserve the Mariachi's? Where is the 
fiesta/baile going to be? You know we should not take it lightly when 
various branches of a family have somehow lost each other for 100's of 
years and suddenly now when no one remembers anyone in the other branch, 
the branches find each other. its time to rejoice and be happy. Its like 
finding a needle in a hay stack. . .it took two or more parties doing 
very very hard and tedious genealogical research to make a very distant 
connection and discover that the same blood the same DNA the same 
familia is "common."
is someone going to make capidotada (Emilie)? or do we have to wait 
until lent? how about some menudo. . .its almost New Years anyway we 
don't only have it for New Years, we've gotten away from that and have 
it whenever someone wants to make it. . .which normally turns out to be 
at New Years. . .go figure! oh and can someone make some tacos de lengua 
and do some cabeza's also. . .ohhhh, I love cabeza! Who knows how to 
dance el "Jarabe Tapetio?" Let's get a few piñatas (well one would be 
enough. . .we don't want to go overboard do we???) and fall to the 
ground like children scrambling for the dulces.
