Cinco de Mayo

I'll never forget a few years ago, watching Jeapordy there was a question regarding this date in Mexico's history. The tv show was referring to it being Mexican Indpendence day. I was having a fit over this. How could Jeapordy mess this one up. Gosh, even wikipedia has it right. It marks the date in which the French was defeated in a city. "Indpendence Day" is in September. Ah, but purists like me are hard to find. I suppose if I drank I'd do enough shots of tequila until I forgot about it. I guess it's taco for dinner instead. Happy Cinco de Mayo to all my Mexican friends.
