Not Without My Tamales: The Embracethelost Story

Reynaldo.

That was the role brought to near-life by Coach Z in the Dangeresque movie, which were in turn brought to life by Strong Bad, who in turn was based on a screenplay by Chad Herzog (Werner Herzog’s great-nephew). Herzog believed that the ultimate expression of modern film was the marriage of William S. Burroughs and luchadore culture, and “Naked Luchadore” was his love letter to an impossible dream.

That’s the only Reynaldo i know, sadly.

Carmen.

The closest I ever got to a Carmen was Sandiego. So I’ll talk about that.

Well before the TV show featuring the talents of the late, lamented Lynne Thigpen, Where in [Thing] Is Carmen Sandiego? was a diskette-based game for the PC. I know this because once in B. Dalton -- a mall bookstore which was kind of like Waldenbooks wearing John Lennon glasses -- I picked up a copy. 

by that I mean, I literally picked up a copy from the shelf. Now, at the time, the software section was in a separate area from the rest of the store - one of those things that had a walk-through security gate. My cousin was just outside and downstairs from this section, and I remember saying, “Hey, you told me about this just this morning!” as I leaned out and showed him Where in the Grieving Process Is Carmen Sandiego or whatever.

The alarm went off and about twelve other bespectacled dudes and most of the rest of the store gave me their sudden, full attention. I drooped back into the software section and I have blocked out the rest.

If You Were

one of the last four people that asked for a postcard two months ago, I didn't do it yet. I just came across them. They're addressed already. I just haven't thought of anything awesome to say. Sorry. You can have one too. Eventually.
