Cinco de Mayo, Robot Stylee

Cinco de Mayo! Ah, that fabulous 5th of May (I speak Spanish), a day where many people from all walks of life fill up on Mexican food and, thanks to heavy international advertising and subsequent reasons to drink, Corona. But what is Cinco de Mayo anyway?

As opposed to popular belief, the holiday is not Mexico's Independence Day, though I'm sure you all (who remotely care) have learned that by now. The holiday actually commemorates the Battle of Puebla where Mexican forces beat the snot out of the occupying French.

Lying in bed last night, drifting off into sleep, I found myself thinking not of all the wonderful Mexican-type stuff I'd be doing, eating and drinking today, but rather of that battle that occurred 145 years ago today, except for one small and entertaining difference. For whatever reason, as I slipped into unconsciousness I imagined the French getting their butts kicked not by Mexican people but rather by...

...wait for it...

...Mexican Robots! Ah, how creative and amusing one's subconscious can be. (maybe it's just the meds)
