I know that you are nursing your hangover from yesterday’s Cinco de Mayo celebrations, but I just wanted to try to lure you back to the darkside with $5 mojitos at Pazole on Wednesday night.  Valid every wednesday, this latin inspired eatry in Virginia Highlands provides tacos and other mexican eats that you can enjoy along with a minty, sugar infused mojito.  Now rest up, it looks like you are going to have a busy week.

Pozole

Unfortunately with Cinco de Mayo falling on a Monday, this year’s celebration is probably going to be a pretty early night for most folks.  If you are still interested on hitting the town for a few margarita’s or cerveza’s then here is a breakdown of events.

Highlands -

Buckhead-

This is just awesome. When you are buying a 1978 El Camino, you have to already know that you are taking the chance of buying a lemon, but maybe you will get lucky and the seller will tell you.  Like this local man who used photos of his El Camino right behind a tow truck, mostly like the one that dropped it off.

Here’s the main shot:

You also catch a little of the tow truck in this photo.

The car is described, “All original old-lady car, perfect body, no dents or dings, super clean interior, original 83k miles, super cold a/c. This car is in great shape.” To this sellers credit, he said “great shape,” but he never said, “will run.”

If you look down on the bottom of the right sidebar, you will find the buddy wall is now open and ready for posting.  The buddy wall is made for you to blow off some steam if something is bothering you. Basically imagine it as a bathroom wall and you want to write random rants about life.  Now please don’t be too offensive but other than that, I will leave it to say whatever you want about this town, your job or me.

Enjoy.

The weather this weekend looks like it going to be a nice start to May.

For the record, the dollar fish tacos are actually quite tasty and the pbr’s wash them down very nicely.  But you better get out there early because if it is nice outside they have been known to run out of fish tacos.
