Any idea if these are common in DF? or even in existence?!
I've recently taken up kickboxing and would love to continue when I get to Mexico

Yup, pretty common indeed. I can't help you out with example costs or a idea on quality, but I've seen a wide variety of martial arts places. Kickboxing, definitely. Taebo, Kung-fu, Karate, the works.

Boxing has always been big in Mexico. You'll see everything from swanky expensive gyms to a tiny lean-to gym held together by sweat and prayer.

Laughing oh then I am the absolute last person you want to be discussing this with.

Tubby guts are not a real bad thing, unless the tacos are made with all the unhealthy parts of the animals. Lilke, head, throat, lips, cheeks, and all the other disgusting parts. Do not worry, be happy, enjoy your food, but healthy food.

hotdogs.. I am talking about tacos. Hotdogs are better than disgusting tacos made of horrible parts. That is turkey hotdogs. Oh but tacos pastor now they are wonderful.

Tacos al pastor aleman? Or do you mean tacos suaperros?

True enough that you can find every part of every animal somewhere. One has to be discerning when dining in Mexico.

Speaking of cheeks, I recently watched the movie Hannibal Rising where they explored cannibalism on the eastern front in WWII. Apparently, the cheeks are the most delicious part of the human body.

ajjaajajajajj, I hope you know that Anthony Hopkins is my favorite actor. I have a photo of him up in my classroom. We play jeopardy every other thursday and the hodgepodge column always has a question about me. Ask any of my students, and they all get this right. Anthony is our teachers favorite actor. YUK,, To eat cheeks is not even desirable. So true, you need to be very sure of what you are eating.
