President Felipe Calderon of Mexico has announced that Mexico will not participate in the Beijing Summer Olympics.
He stated:
"Casi cada uno que puede funcionar, saltar, o la nadada ha salido ya del pams."
Translation: "Pretty much everyone who can run, jump, or swim has already left the country."
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!
An oldie but a good one!
France is suing Mexico for a refund of $10 billion for submarines made in Mexico. It seem that adobe doesn’t work too well underwater.

Advice to China. Build a fence. They will come.

A Frenchman, a Englishman, and a Mexican decided to get into the Olympics without paying.
The Frenchman put on a track suit and went to the gate and said “Morise LaGrow, France, 100 meter dash”...They let him in.
The English man showed up in a track suit, dragging a 16 foot pole, and said “Basil Swarthmore, England, pole vaulting”... They let him in.
The Mexican showed up in a track suit, with barbed wire wrapped all around him and said “Manuel Lopes, Mexico, fencing”

They would be run away winners if there was an event for roofing.
Ernesto Canto (born 18 October 1959 in Mexico City) was a Mexican race walker who mainly competed in the 20 kilometre walk.
He competed for Mexico at the 1984 Summer Olympics held in Los Angeles, United States where he won the gold medal in the men’s 20 kilometre walk event.
ID theft and Drunk Driving have yet to be added to the Olympics.
The friend who sent you that speaks lousy Spanish. Or speaks no Spanish at all and used the notorious Babelfish.
“Translations” like that are the reason I do not advise anyone to use Babelfish unless they are really desperate.
