All you Monroe folks forgot to mention that the popos have gotten fairly strict on dwi up in them parts as of late. Should be fine during happy hour time frame though. If i were there, i would do Portico or Sal's. Or i guess i could go visit with my old man at the Airport.

Good luck getting Sal to feed you though.

One of my fondest memories of that place was on Cinco De Mayo. Couple of buddies entered a jalapino eating contest. Those tards ate 20-30 of em. The aftermath was funny as frick.

It's on Vets Blvd, just off of I-10, real easy to get to from the freeway. It's 2 exits or so past the airport. Easy drive for you.

I informed Frank and she was not aware of this fact either. She is a big fan. She hit up the one in Hattiesburg on the way home from beach last summer. She has pics to prove it.

Cucos used to make a damn fine border burger. I am also a fan of their chimipoquitos. That is little chimichangas for all you non mexican speaking folks.

ahhh, if you get a DUI you'll just become a cela.com superstar and pay Val Salomon a few grand for the dui. No biggie.

I've gone through this process. 2001 leaving Library Lounge. Val took about 4 grand, I only saw him the first time we met, and I ended up with a careless/ reckless operation charge on my record. to ole Val Salomon, that cocksucker.
