God Only Cries/Cinco de Mayo
Happy Cinco de Mayo!
On Cinco de Mayo, we commemorate the battle at Pueblo that took place in 1862, where the Mexicans defeated the French occupation. It's not really the same as Mexico's Independence Day. Today, I heard so many new France jokes, just because it was Cinco de Mayo.
Today, my buddy Hemant and I went to a Mexican restaurant after work. It was called La Cocina del Puerco (the Pig's Kitchen) and featured a live band. Unfortunately, by the time we got there, the wait was 1.5 hours. We were so hungry that we left and went to Cinzetti's. This restaurant is probably one of the most innovative I've seen. I ordered a sangria which is a mix of red wine, orange juice, and sugar. I put links to La Puerca and Cinzetti's. Here they are again:

I've been hearing this song a lot lately and thought of sharing it with you. It's Diamond Rio's latest single, "God Only Cries" that was just released in 2006.
On an icy road one night
A young man loses his life
They marked the shoulder with a cross
An' his family gathers round
On a piece of Hallowed ground
Their hearts are heavy with their loss
As the tears fall from their eyes
There's one who'll always sympathise.
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
An' all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
'Cause they're in a better place than, mmm, baby, than, oh
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are so far from home.
It still makes me sad
When I think of my Grand-dad
I miss him each and every day
But I know the time will come
When my own gradnson
Wonders why I went away
Maybe we're not meant to understand
Till we meet up in the Promised Land.
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
And all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
'Cause they're in a better place than, oh, baby, than oh
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are so far from home
Yeah, we're so far from home, Mmmm, Mmmm
