...wanted to have a type of tourism that really raised people's understanding," says founder Alfonso Martinez, who dresses in a ski mask and goes by the name Poncho. "So we decided to turn the painful experience all of us here have gone through into a kind of game that teaches something to our fellow Mexicans." Poncho and other ski-masked comrades play polleros, or chicken herders - the human smugglers who guide wannabe migrants over the deserts and rivers into the U.S. Having made the real journey dozens of times to work as a gardener in Nevada, Poncho is well...
...Muertos,” a festival with Mexican and Central American origins, was commemorated as well. This weekend, the museum staged a two-part celebration. During the day, it held a family-oriented series of activities which included sugar skull painting, papel picado craft, and skull mask making. Harvard Ballet Folklórico de Aztlán, a traditional Mexican folk dancing troupe, also made an appearance.

...takes place in a library and is about a guy who falls "head over heels" for the would-be-hot-if-she-weren't-wearing-enormous-glasses librarian. But like any good 1980s music video, it doesn't make any sense-a monkey, a man in a gas mask, and a rabbi all make absurdist cameos. So when the parody's creator, Dustin McLean, references them directly-"Now the rabbi's walking right behind me"-it's funny. At least, it's supposed to be funny. It is supposed to be funny, right? I don't know, it just seems...
