Poncho

So a bunch of us were at Taste of Dallas this weekend, where people can go and sample food from restaurants from all over the city while listening to bands play and wasting their money on arts and crafts. While there, we encountered a funny little person, whom I dubbed as "Poncho." This whimsical little man would stand in front of a tent where a bamboo instrument band was blowing and playing on their flutes and sitars celebrating their native culture, whatever it may have been. Well this curious little fellow toted an odd looking keyboard that he held in his hands, but never played; all while he danced about. Now, when I say, "danced," I mean he shook his hips back and forth in a festive, yet not too festive manner. I mean he's no Shakira, but the little bugger was giving it his all. He would add his own personal dash of spice to this dance by throwing in an unpredictable hop that is comparable to a child playing hop-scotch on a playground, only with a useless keyboard his hands. Needless to say, when you add the keyboard, the dancing, and the ridiculously over-sized Panama hat all together you can see why stereotypes exist. The only thing missing from making him an actual cartoon character that found his way into the real world was the fact that he was missing a deliciously tacky mustache.

P.S. Wow was I off on my Derby pick. I couldn't have really told you who Ryan Howard was before last night. I'm just gonna keep my mouth shut from now on. I think this is better for all of us.
