Day 130: Rico's
As I was looking back at some of the Daily Taco pictures from the last few weeks, I have noticed that most of them are less than professional looking. As I puzzled and puzzled as to why my marvelous tacos looked so blurry and grainy, I happened to look at the lens for my camera phone. What should have been a clean, clear piece of glass seemed to be covered with a film which looked suspiciously like salsa! A quick swabbing with a moist paper towel and the problem seems to be rectified. Irregardless, I have decided to attempt to take more pictures with cameras other than/better than the one housed in my phone so that, hopefully, the deliciousness of my daily taco will be more accurately and vibrantly conferred to you, the Senor Salty faithful. Now , the tacos. With the BCS championship game on the T.V., a quick trip to Rico's for some tacos to go seemed like an easy way for the E.P. and I to get dinner, fulfil my daily requirement, and manage to catch the majority of the game. The arctic chill had carried over from Sunday, and the short block and a half walk mercifully ended inside a warm Rico's dining room. A short wait for our food, a chilly stroll home, and we were once again seated in front of the T.V., only now more suitably equipped with a pair of grilled chicken tacos with guac each.

The Tacos and cervesas were excellent. The BCS game was decidedly not so. Luckily, coinciding with the 2nd half of that College Footy abomination was the Warriors Spurs tip off. And even more fortuitous was the Bearded Wizzard and Captain Jack playing out of their minds to end the game in OT with a W. In the spirit of the Warriors playoff run and coinciding with your current Taco run (which of the 2 is more impressive? I am not sure perhaps a poll question?) it is time to Rock the OBL/Bearded Wizzard/ homeless man look. Lets get this going, it might be what pulls you through the end of the year.
Ah, yes nothing I like better than clearer taco pictures....but the true beauty of the post is the double negative at the start of a sentence. I bring it up not because I am a grammar Nazi, to the contrary I am sure everyone here knows Senor Salty would never unintentionally use the extra “Ir” on “regardless” if not for a reason. I think it is another clue! Beknownst to me but possibly unbeknownst to some of you I have been secretly following the “Da Vinci Code” like bread crumbs Senor Salty has been dropping here and there throughout the posts. I am not positive but from my research I have deduced the code reconstructs the recipe for the perfect Taco (yes capitalized) created by the ancient Mayans. The recipe was thought to be lost to history until Senor Salty recovered a black marble keystone while diving the limestone sinkholes of the Yucatan. He then secretly used the golden inscriptions on the tablet to reinterpret the translation of glyphs in the Akab Dzib of Chichen Itza (“The House of Mysterious Writing" for those not fluent in Mayan). So I am just asking for clarification on my interpretation of that sentence. I am completely perplexed. I wouldn’t want to get the measurements wrong in the recipe and waste these countless days spent on the Taco trail just to accidentally reanimate the bones of Quetzalcoatl with my eternal soul instead of recreating the ultimate chili-lime sauce, so you can see my predicament! Any help would be appreciated!
