Yesterday we had a longish break for lunch, so a few of us went out to eat. We went to “El Salto”, which is an awesome Mexican food place near school. It was Angie, Michele, Brady, and me. After being there for a while, Brady commented on how all the other customers were men. I had noticed it too. All men in their late 20′s or early 30′s. All dressed in polos or in button down shirts with no tie. And all of them had similar mannerisms. The only women in the restaurant were at our table or were waitresses.
After noticing it, we went back to our conversation, but uneasiness hovered at the edges of my mind. What was going on? Where were the women?
I think it’s because “El Salto” means “The Chauvinists” in Spanish. Or is it “Ugly Men Eat Here”? One of those.
I love your title.
Salto can be jump or it can be a waterfall (think, water jumping off a cliff).
I think you’re wrong on that. I’m pretty sure ‘El Salto’ means to heavily salt everything!
It WAS freaky how they all looked similar.
It reminded me of our lunch at Qdoba earlier this week when a bunch of boys from a local high school swarmed the place and they all looked the same.
Brad commented that if a crime were committed and they were all in a line-up, he would not be able to identify the bad guy!
Ha—Your title made me immediatley think of this:

Maybe Spanish women aren’t allowed out of the house…unless they’re serving men.
Oops…I realize that doesn’t make any sense. Do I ever make sense? At least now I have an excuse…I’ve accidently been taking double the amt. of my prescription for back…I thought I felt good!
Peg-ee! Watch out there! There’s “better living through chemistry”, and then there’s “poor Peggy – we’ll miss her!”
I like Lucy.
But when I wrote the title, I was thinking of this:

Oh I didn’t think you were thinking of Lucy when you wrote the title (I assumed you made it up)…but it made me laugh & reminded me of that clip. (of course there’s very little that doesn’t remind me of a Lucy clip)
Cyborgs… Cy, borgs…
Heh.
