Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Even though I'm not Mexican, I'd like to wish everyone a happy Cinco de Mayo.

And just so everybody knows, Cinco de Mayo is NOT Mexican independence day. It is a celebration of the Mexican victory in the Battle of Puebla in 1862, during the French invasion of Mexico by Napoleon III during what is referred to as "The French Intervention in Mexico", "The Maximilian Affair", or "The Second Franco-Mexican War".
