And it's funny, I've have had a few people with the last name of Martinez and people from the town of Martinez (2 hours away from me) ask me if I would sell it, luckily I'm strong willed and I have said "No"....

I want it because it matches my hat! I could just have witness protection change my name to Martinez. OOPS!! I said it on the internet!
Olives give me a hangover (I guess that was it) and I have hang-ups with drinking from a stemmed glass...unless it looks like a cactus and is filled with Margarita on the rocks
