Salamu
First of all, congratulations to Spain on winning their third Euro and their second back-to-back. Muchas Gracias por mostrar a los Italianos que no es dueño del mundo del fútbol. Y gracias por el cierre de la soberbia poco de mierda a Mario Balotelli.
Right down to the business of the day. This is going to actually turn into a word of the day post. As always I turn to urbandictionary.com as a reference for these pieces. All words and descriptions can be cross referenced there.

| Brock Lesner is going to F5 a Great White? CHINGALO! |
Meaning: in mexico people use it to say "fuck it!"
Stephanie Milan is sitting at home...chilling...watching the food channel when all of a sudden the door to her house gets kicked in, smoke grenades get thrown into the house, and a SWAT team bursts through the door. Apparently they were acting on information that a computer from that address had been used to post threats (including references to explosives) against the police and members of police officer's families, via Topix.com
Look I know that you shouldn't joke about shit like that and the police have every right to take these threats seriously. But Chingalo...did SWAT have to come and get the computer? Why not the local law enforcement? I thought SWAT were only called in during extreme situations such as hostage situations and high profile narc cases, hence the meaning of SWAT: Special Weapons And Tactics. Stephanie...girl...all of a sudden you became an extreme situation. And why did SWAT need to kick the door down and throw smoke grenades in the house to seize a computer?
ONLY IN AMERICA!

| Is that what you call sleeping it off? Que Poca Madre |
Meaning:literal:"motherless". mex.slag. 1/ used for descrbe something is realy fucking cool, 2/ used to describe a bad situation or something that a person ("asshole"in that moment) did to you, by adding "que" before "poca madre".
So gizmodo.com (which is primarily a geeky technology based site) had an article up on it today about how to drink the whole day and not pass out.
I find this really funny because: a) do geeks know what alcohol is and b)they are actually giving tips about how to infringe at least two law violations in the US: DUI and Public Intoxication.
So now because someone else beat me to it. I will repost two of the most important tips the site offered for marathon drinking. That by the end of the day people will be able to look at you and say: "que Poca Madre vato!"
Pace Yourself
Drinking all day is an endurance event. You are literally slowly poisoning yourself all day and seeing how long you can take it. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Listening to your body is the number one most important thing. If it tells you, "I've had enough," well, you had a good run, but you need to stop, because you could do some serious damage. However, your body may send the message, "Just gimme another 15 minutes. I'm still working on that last one," in which case, game on. Respect those messages, though, and do your best to listen for them.
Maximum Volume, Minimum Impact
ABV (alcohol by volume) is critical here. The lower the better. Continuing the metaphor from the last section, this is a marathon. Sipping beer (typically 6 percent ABV) is a slow, steady jog that will get you to the finish line. Taking a shot of whiskey (typically 40 percent ABV) is like doing a 100-yard dash as fast as you can in the middle of it. You're going to blow yourself out too quickly, and very well might not finish unless you slow way down immediately afterward.
And here is a tip from the Lion of Lebanon
Dont Buckle to Peer Pressure
Some Panocha's will find it highly amusing to vociferously encourage you to down drinks or consume high volumes of liquor in a short amount of time in order to get you Poca Madre. I have lost count on how often this has happened to me.
The one occasion I can remember well was Spring Day celebrations at my old university. Basically Spring Day is a day which was a varsity holiday where there would be no classes and there would be a huge campus party celebrating the onset of spring. Alcohol was a huge part of these celebrations. So in my first year I got myself a bottle of peach schnupps and mixed it in a bottle with Sprite (it was a whole bottle of schnupps to about 750 ml of Sprite). I was sipping it merrily when an arrogant Portuguese Puta said: PA...I bet you cant down that. (there was 3/4 of the mix left.) Normally i would have said: Your mother and just carried on sipping. But because I already had hooch in my system the Lion came out and I downed it in front of him and then hit him over the head with the bottle. That was at 10 am in the morning with the prospect of the whole day ahead of me Poca Madre! Apparently I spent the rest of the day thinking I was Eddie Guerrero screaming: "Orale Vato Loco's!"
CHINGALO!
Mei jua daima kuwa kabla yenu, na vivuli nyuma yako!
