That would be super cool to meet the governor of Gto, but we're in Costa Rica at the moment. However, while you are in Chicago you must go get a drink at the top of the Hancock tower (there's a restaurant/bar there...can't remember the name). It's the best view of the city, especially at night!

They go by my house everynight, singing a song that goes "la mas guapa chica del bario, la mas hermosa de la universidad". Anybody know what that is called?

oh please! inform yourself! these are usually university groups following a Spanish tradition! estudiantinas. callejoneadas is because they take place in "callejon" colonial architecture street.  In Puerto Rico they are pretty common during Christmas time.
