Emotion: Loco
They have an old saying in Cancun: “Sir, here’s your chips and guacamole, a Coco Loco in a coconut shell and your icy cold Corona with lime. Can I bring you anything else?”
They say it over and over, those beautiful peoples of Mexico. If I heard it once, I heard it a dozen or more times during the mini-vacation I took in Mexico with my wife Anita at an all-inclusive resort.
I asked an old lady handing out towels by the pool what the words meant.
“Usted es un idiota,” she frowned.
I guess I’ll never know their meaning, but I’ve gotta tell you that I loved the way those words floated across the warm, surf-smelling air and asked the locals to repeat them to me over and over and over.
A few too many times apparently.
Oh, well. We have a saying in these parts as well: “Time to get back to work.”
