When i first heard it i thought it would die right away.But many years later it's still going strong.Why? The thing is, as many folks as it may seem trying to get out, one has to remember that it'a that many people and more trying to get in... T.J. a hella cheap party place for under age teens. You don't have to be 21 to buy alcohol there. Ensenota(sp) a lil beach town for coolin out, and fishing
all those other exotic places in mexico that the rich, and wannabes like to cruise to. when they say RUN FOR THE BORDER, you have to remember they're talkin to us the GRINGOES...  Gringos.
It's Ensenada, BAD MAN.

Let's take this one step further
Wednesday, April 22, 1998 Story last updated at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 21, 1998 Chihuahua's television spots causing commercial backlash From staff and news services The line has been drawn. It's either a delightful commercial featuring a diminutive dog with animated eyebrows, or a sickening racist attack on Cubans, Mexicans, and Latin Americans. Either way, the Taco Bell television ads featuring a talking Chihuahua leading a fast-food revolution have inspired a debate among Hispanics nationwide. But it's the most recent spot featuring the dog in a Che Guevara-style black beret and offering an adoring crowd the revolutionary slogan ''Viva Gorditas'' - the latest in Taco Bell chow - that has people up in arms. On Spanish-language radio in Miami, Ninoska Perez, host of an afternoon talk show, has gotten an earful from listeners who think the dog is a parody of Guevara, an Argentine-born revolutionary leader. ''In this community there are so many victims of dictatorship and of Che Guevara,'' said Perez, who hasn't seen the commercial yet. ''Using these symbols to sell a product hurts a lot of people. It's not cute and it's not funny.'' But others think the debate over the ads is even more ridiculous than talking dogs and taco revolutions. ''I think the reaction is overrated,'' said Johnny Perez, 43, shelter manager at the Jacksonville Humane Society, who is of Mexican descent. ''I personally don't find it offensive at all. I don't understand why people are upset.'' Frank Parra, 40, a social worker with Lutheran Social Services in Jacksonville, who was born in Colombia has mixed feelings about the commercial. ''I personally am happy-go-lucky and have a sense of humor about everything,'' Parra said. ''What concerns me with stuff like that is that if you make fun of a minority group, it perpetuates oppression of them, just like if you make fun of Southerners or African-Americans.'' Taco Bell has reveled in the popularity of the ads, spinning out T-shirts and planning an entire line of doggie merchandise. The Irvine, Calif.-based company says it hasn't gotten any negative response from the Gordita ads, and will keep churning them out. ''It's about Gordita-ism, not communism,'' said Peter Stack, spokesman for the restaurant chain. ''Any resemblance to a revolution led by a small talking dog is purely coincidental.'' | |
