Well just woke up for another little snooze lol. Thanks for the new thread.
So, April 30th is almost over, and this was the big day that all of the goings-on behind the scenes were to be revealed (all the Q and STORM stuff), as per Pascal Najadi. I’m a little disappointed, but hardly surprised. There is still a couple of hours to go, so I won’t give up yet!
I can’t help but wonder what he’ll say now.....other than, “Thanks for the clicks, heading to the bank first thing tomorrow!”

Why do we celebrate Cinco de Mayo and the Mexicans do not?
Because Cinco de Mayo is a celebration created by and for Latino communities in the United States. And the celebration of Cinco de Mayo is more about U.S. Latino history and culture than Mexican history. Certainly, the military battle itself plays a significant role in Mexican history.

Uxmal is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is approximately 40 miles away from Yucatán’s state capital, Mérida.
The Pyramid of the Magician is the tallest building of Uxmal, at approximately 130 feet high. It is constructed of limestone, and is the main tourist attraction of Uxmal.
2. About 90% of the state of Oaxaca is covered by which type of terrain?
Answer: Mountains
There are five different systems of mountain ranges in the state of Oaxaca, with the major ranges being the Sierra Madre del Sur, the Sierra Atravesada (Sierra de Niltepec), and the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca. There are five peaks over 3,000 meters in the state, with the tallest being Cerro Quiexoba at 3,750 meters. The mountainous terrain means that the rivers in Oaxaca are not navigable, though some of them, like the Coatzacoalcos River, are navigable in other regions downriver.
