No, it's demeaning to Mexicans to portray then all as Mariachi. Funny

If they are Mariachis, how it is demeaning? It only portrays about four
people, not all Mexicans. Some Mexicans are probably as joke-deaf as

His lips move. Well, you can tell if my posts are sarcastic if you
can see letters.

I'm not sure what's with the reference to the sport of curling, but I
don't think it's a popular sport in Mexico and this is a cycling
newsgroup. Thanks.
