While I'm sure it's good, you can't survive in this town as a bad Mexican restaurant, I want to know the process of going from walking to famous Garduno's to driving to a complete unknown Papa Felipe's.

Memphis needs suspended for this season for his lack of empathy towards Papa.

Since he's not going to the mountain because he has ebola, what else is there to do in Albuquerque?

I have no idea why Bushie doesn't become a drug dealer.  He won't even sip wine, forget touching his own stash.  And could you imagine the market in the outskirts of OKC!?  I know I'd be operating on a multitude of psychoactives.

You know, if Bushie likes it here, moving here might be a good idea. There is a loophole someone who loves driving like him can exploit. Santa Fe's minimum wage is $10.66 an hour and people get paid way above that just to do menial tasks, especially during high tourism months. A friend from high school works as a security guard for a gated community in Santa Fe, makes $25/hr, and owns a house in the Albuquerque suburbs.

If he's willing to commute 45 minutes coming and going, he could seriously work at a Wendy's in SF and support himself with an apartment in Enchanted Hills or Bernallilo for about $500 a month.  There are probably call centers and CAD here, too.

Al's suggestion of cleaning public toilets has to be good for $18 or so.

I don't know when you guys are going to get it through your head that Bushie is not going to do any job that doesn't involve throwing on a shirt and tie in the morning so he can pretend he's Leave It To Beaver's dad.

Memphis needs suspended for this season for his lack of empathy towards Papa.

it was also disrespectful for bushie to say his father 'only' works 40 hours a week.

meanwhile bushie lounges around watching the super duper cable package.

It's more disrespectful that Bushie doesn't factor in the hours and hours of game planning and talking to time Dad has to have with him because he's out of a job again, various other tasks associated with Bushie seemingly staying at his parent's house for days on end, and running back on forth to Tulsa to pick up his crap because Bushie has the sniffles.  I'm aware Dad offers this stuff and may even enjoy the rides... I said this last season, but nevertheless it is still work... "toils" as our fallen friend used to say.

It was a "Navajo Taco (Indian Taco)".  Good thing he specified that; we'd have no idea what a 'Navajo' anything is otherwise.

Do you even read Update? Bushie would get arrested almost instantly.

We're back at the hotel and in for the evening.  We're pooped, but we had a very good day.  We're going to try to leave between 5 and 6 am tomorrow.
