Do you like the new Twitter box?

[rk]

Catt, good observation. It solves the problem.

I dig the Twitter feed and appreciate the knowledge I can hide the " like" ass kissing.

Gus- I didn't make it out to Roberto's. With Cielito Lindo, Lucha Libre and Tacos del Guedo on Revolucion, it was overload. Guess I was making up for lost time. Appreciated your tips.

Did have a moment snap this for you...just to make you tickle.

[Gus]

Happy you like the Twitter box.

Thanks for the picture - that's a difficult shot to get. I hope your daughter was holding the wheel, as you driving down the freeway taking the picture.

For those who are wondering, that's the Del Mar Fairgrounds, just north of San Diego. The train tracks are the foreground. In the background are the grandstands for the Del Mar Horse Racing track. I used to sneak into the fair from that spot.

" take a train, take a plane, take a car."

That Bing Crosby classic always strikes a nerve.

My daughter has taken to taking pictures, but that was my sister riding shotgun. June Gloom sucks. Kinda of glad I'm back home under a blue sky with some billowy shade. Pool time ! - before the eventual rains.

In reference to the Twitter Box: I encourage MB411 to set up the instagram app and utilize it to tweet pictures you've or others have taken in Miami.

Visuals are always good.

In reference the your last Tweet. I think the guys at The Bu, spell it as S-T-O-K-E-D.

[Gus]

Yeah, San Diego June gloom doesn't burn off until around 1pm, and can last until the end of July.

Thanks for suggesting instagram - I'll start playing with it.

As for correcting me about the spelling of my earlier Tweet:

American Slang - Stoaked: being in an excited or enthusiastic state. Example: I'm totally stoaked to visit Miami.

We're both right - it's spelled two ways. Most surfers spell it: stoaked, but then again, surfers aren't particularly known for being good at speling

Stay tuned for more American Slang Tweets coming you're way!

How about Spanish slang tweets?

Del Mar is a great time. I recall us going there last year, right Gus? GOod times.

[Gus]

Yeah, we had a great time the day we hung out with you at the track! Sorry we missed dinner, though.

Spanish slang Tweets are a good idea. Unfortunately, I only know Mexican slang and bad words, so I'm not sure how many people from Miami and South American would get the jokes.

Comprende, puto? Que es tu barrio, guere?

[Blackford Oakes]

Que es tu barrio, guere?

That sounds better than a vato in Khakis and hush puppies asking: " where you from ?" An ass kicking usually ensues if you give the wrong answer. To avoid trouble, I sounded innocent with my coined answer, which was; " I was born at Queen of Angels off The 5."

[Gus]

Eastsiiide!

Mi papa creado en Boyle Heights.

A cholo in khakis is my "go to" Halloween costume - Don't get me started on Mexican slang.

[Blackford Oakes]

Eastsiiide!

[I]Those are fighting words Ese !

What the F u doing in Frogtown ?

Gus - if I wear this with my starched khakis, not even MS will mess with me.

I picked up this gem last week at the garment district
