I wonder how many out there remember Bucky Beaver, the Ipana toothpaste mascot from yester year? I know I made my folks buy me Ipana because of him. I can hear him now.

On the way back from the farmer’s market by the library yesterday, I stopped at ABEL’s market. I needed bananas and the market I had been going to had slipped up and showed me they were charging gringo prices. The last time I went in to buy bananas they priced them at two for a [...]
