Cinco de Mayo will Continue to be Celebrated in the US

Austin - As the Texas Legislature considers banning courts from recognizing foreign religious and cultural laws, Texans worry about the future of Cinco de Mayo. Cinco de Mayo is a cherished holiday primarily celebrated in the United States. Most Americans have no idea why the seemingly Mexican holiday is celebrated. They just want an excuse to get drunk off their asses and drink margaritas.

"No, we are not trying to ban 5 de Mayo and kill all the cool margarita parties," exclaimed a spokesman from the Governor's office to reporters. "We're trying to ban other stuff," he continued. There was a big sigh of relief from the press corps as most reporters go hang out at Saxon Pub after press briefings and have margaritas and listen to live music of whatever nature. This is especially true on Cinco de Mayo.

...

That being said, reporters were not able to get an official answer about St. Patrick's Day. Reporters as well as the Irish community and college students from all over the state will be waiting to hear from the Governor's office about the future of green beer and getting drunk off their asses every March.

6. May 19th would have been Ho Chi Minh's 121st birthday!

:party: :beer:

Celebrating that would really stick in their craws.

2. And the calendar companies must be relieved --

now they won't have to renumber their calendars in May to jump from the 4th to the 6th of May.

And the condiment makers won't have to worry that their mayonnaise might be somehow disparaged.

;-)

3. They'd have to ban St. Patrick's Day
