It finally rained… and it rained hard in Austin all weekend. But it’s still pretty dry out there which reminded me of these very famous TV commercials from a very successful water conservation campaign in Mexico all the way back in 1983. What I did not know is that the kid in the ads is the son of comedian Enrique “El Polivoz” Cuenca. Check them after the break…

One day to go: Quick sketch
Yes, I’m very scared about tomorrow’s game. In order to mentally prepare I made this quick sketch. Recognize him? Write down your best guess in the comments section.
Bungee
Here’s a video of me bungee jumping last Saturday at the Cola de Caballo waterfalls, in Villa de Santiago, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Highly recommended. Enjoy!
Update 7/8/2009: Answering Eva’s comments on how this compares to skydiving: Skydiving costs 10x more but it’s worth it 10x more. It’s a better, longer, experience. The thing about bungee jumping is that your body changes direction several times so you get a different feeling. But nothing beats the free fall of sky diving, with the strong wind in your face and the unbelievable, wide open view.
Elections
Since I was there for the weekend, I exercised my citizen’s rights. Thanks to Eva for reminding me to pack my voting card.
