If you hold your foot just right, it ain't but four hours to Mexico - Crossin' Over, Lee Roy Parnell

The Mirida Inititive was announced in October 2007. Mirida was a King George pledge of $1.7 billion in US aid to Mexico for it's war on drug cartels. This life saving money may very well be en route, but according to my synchronized, bloodbath monitoring watch, they sure as hell didn't load it next to the Lonestar in Lee Roy's trunk.

Trunk management might not be his day job, but one of the guys charged with at least holding his foot just right is US Ambassador Antonio Garza.

Antonio had the distinction of being the very first person knighted by King George when he first began his rule of Texas. Knighted Secretaries Of State, especially those from the castle of Bracewell & Patterson, slay voting dragons, right?

And, since it seems to blend so neatly into our own fire breathing financial mess, the city of Merida just happens to be a hot spot banking & insurance center. Not to mention the fact that Mrs Knight happens to be a bank president.

Is it possible that someone forgot to do a trunk check upon Lee Roy's arrival? Or, unloaded the trunk and mistakenly handed the deposit slip to Spanish John?

Granted, Mirida isn't Lee Roy's normal run, and, they did force him to dispose of Spitzer at that little cantina along the way, but the "we don't need no stink'in badges" guys are coming up the hill. And, it looks like they even brought the "scum sucking pig" guy with them.

Crazy King Bogie has split for Dallas, but where are the mules? We don't need another story that we can't take back home.
