Obviously targeting our dated and dilated pupils. The first was “cochinita”, the second was “pibil” Just two words on a two foot tall easel. Sticking its head above an ornamental grass. But the power of those words.
“I thought that was a tofu shop”, said Cactus Jack.
“I thought it was a laundry”, said Don Day.
“I know it used to be a newspaper and magazine shop”, said Jack. “Should we check it out?”
