Not Independence Day

 Today is Cinco de Mayo.

Today is NOT Mexican Independence Day (that is September 16, 1810 - the Cry of Dolores.) Today is just when the Mexican Army defeated the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla, on May 5, 1862.

Beating the French is not that hard to do (everyone has done it) and isn't something amazing to celebrate. It would be more amazing to celebrate a French victory.

Regardless, my time working at Taco Bell during High School has prepared me for today so tacos and chalupas all-around!
