That's a real eye popper. Where did you learn to do the file work? That's awesome. If you have any resources or books you've found helpful, please pass them on.

Abuelito, Mexican peso's aren't any good anymore. Didn't you know that. Hee hee And the fumes may have been some hot tamalies and beans that I ate.
