"I would rather be living in Philadelphia" was, indeed, the epitaph that W.C. Fields once quipped that he would write for himself. Couldn't help it...

Cisco and Pancho loomed large in my childhood. Duncan Renaldo and Leo Carillo...and it's worth looking into the life of Leo Carillo. Carillo has sort have been painted as the human version of the "Frito Bandito" - a stereotype of a mexican character - but Californians probably recognize him as a real renaissance man and a historical preservationist.

I just felt that the kilt almost makes the snappy retorts come more quickly. I had a lot of comments the other day...the funny part to me is that most people seemed to think that I was from out of town...I'm usually the guy who's helping the lost and befuddled tourists find their way around!

Best
