Dia de Los Muertos Argentine mutants are people too, my friend (video)
The band: El Mató a un Policía Motorizado. The video: Día de Los Muertos. We don’t know why, exactly, but one of the mutants from Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Total Recall is involved, and he is not muerto. We advise you, therefore, that the events depicted in this video are probably not a true story but rather a sequence of images strung together to go with the music. That’s how they roll in Argentina.

Dispatch From A Pocha: Lost in New York City
I put on pants today. It wasn’t nearly as horrible as I remember.
Though it’s only been three days since Hurricane Sandy ransacked the East Coast, it feels like three years.
Manhattan is a different world. The subways are flooded, people are trapped in their neighborhoods, only the Thai place is delivering.
I went to the bodega for some cans of tuna, all they had was anchovies… Never mind, another day of coconut curry…
