Cinco de Mayo

Happy May Fifth! I've heard that today isn't a really big holiday in Mexico, but I've never been there, so what do I know?

But of course what I like about this holiday is that it celebrates the Mexican army's victory in a battle against the French. Yup, that's right. France managed to lose even to Mexico in military conflict.

Mexico had half the numbers of the French army in the battle and not nearly the weaponry, but they still managed to give the French their comeuppance.

They beat them with cows.
