Puerto Rico Points of Interest

Friday, July 25, 2008

So recently I had to a racial background survey...

Hispanic or Latino - A person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race.

American Indian-Alaskan Native (Not Hispanic or Latino) - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central America), and who maintain tribal affiliation or community attachment.

Asian (Not Hispanic or Latino) - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the Indian Subcontinent, including, for example, Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippine Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Black or African American (Not Hispanic or Latino) - A person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa.

Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander (Not Hispanic or Latino) - A person having origins in any of the peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands.

White (Not Hispanic or Latino) - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa.

Two or More Races (Not Hispanic or Latino) - All persons who identify with more than one of the above races.


Is it me, or does it kinda imply that Latinos/Hispanics are all mixed mutts from all over the placE? I mean they cant choose Two or more races?

hanging in San Antonio, well not exactly, here for work, but man, i've tried to hang out during the nite hours but this place is sloooooooow. i think people must be getting high all the time, cuz public fun is not their thing here. well maybe i'm not goin to the right places, but you would think down town in the "nice" part of the city you would find some decent nite life.

wrooong.

so i guess i'm not recommending san antonio. its kinda boring. oh and yeah people come here with their families, but honestly, taking your kids to Hooters and other bars? really?

i miss you Boriken...

today was one of those days that puts the Warrior in "Road Warrior". i spent a whole day traveling, leaving my house at 530am to catch a 7am flight. all went well until we got to Atlanta, where a freaky thunderstorm mashup closed the airport. we finally boarded at 1030pm to travel to San Antonio. things have since then gotten better, with a great rental car and an awesome hotel to stay at....

here's to a good week.
