Words to live by



The photo accompanies a story about Carpinteria (CA) High School's recent internecine strife about using Native American images for its football team, but I like the message.

Many spectators waved signs that read, “Warrior Spirit Never Dies!” The crowd cheered 76-year-old Evangelina Diaz, a Carpinteria resident of Yaqui descent, who proclaimed she was “a warrior — not a victim!”

Fuckin' A, lady!

Just as a meaningless aside, when you're in Carp check out El Taco Grande. They have an al pastor plate that is simply to die for!
