Hiyas,
Well, lucky me has a friend travelling to Mexico in the next couple of weeks, and he's agreed to bring me back some treats. The only problem is that apart from a good bottle of tequila, all the things I can think of don't really pack well.. The sights, sounds and smell of the zocalo, hugs from my friends, tamales, etc etc etc..
So, what should I ask for?
Lozwich. |

| What about silver trinkets? They are cheap and plentiful. Or obsidian crafts. |

A counterfeit MIT or Harvard doctorate from Tepito? An endangered animal? Shopping is great in Tepito after all. 
Sorry to slag your hood Mike...can't resist. |

That's brilliant!! Then, when I come back to Mexico in September, it'll make finding a fantastic job a whole lot easier!
Always wanted to go to MIT too...  |

| I always thought endagered animals were at the pets market, can't remember the name of it, but not too far from La Merced. And I believe Harvard and MIT have branches in Bangkok, at least that's the place for diount degrees. |

Progreso Mexico has a place that offers weekend degrees in Tomfoolery, Joke Tellings, and Door Knob Shinery. I won't say who, but Tim is laughing right now to be sure.
Mercado Sonora has all the animals. Got my puppy there as an Xmas gift for my wife 3 years ago.
He's not endangered...threatened perhaps whenever he *beeps* on the rug. |

| The best sales line ever comes from the Tepito entrepreneur selling used coffins... "hey, the last owner never complained!" |

Sonora Market, that's the one. Also good for witchcraft supplies, for all you wiccans and Harry-Potter-wannabees, LOL |

Ok! Here's my list (so far...)
1. A bottle of cheap and tasty tequila
2. The latest Paulina Rubio cd (pirated, of course)
3. A puppy that will grow into the little brown dog variety of street dog that I liked so much in the big H
4. Witchcraft supplies to get rid of the more troublesome students I have here.
5. A coffin to put them in after applying #4!
Thanks!
