It's like the Wings of Desire band version. Great! And beer at 10 isn't bad. A gentleman never drinks before 9.

Now let's act together and Stop Plan Mexico. get some artist friends and go to your local congressional representatives office and tell them Stop the Merida Initiative, which would give $1.5 billion to the SAME people who killed those in Oaxaca and elsewhere.
