It seems that Mexico has turned into a nightmare apocalypse swamp (desert?) just south of our own American borders, overnight. Once upon a time, carefree teens could slip down to Juarez or Tijuana for a good clean evening of wholesome fuckin', and now they will just get kidnapped or worse. Just look at the news: terrible shootouts between drug cartels, a lethal plague, and now just today a scary earthquake near Mexico City ... Jesus, no wonder Rick Perrywants federal troops on the border.

"I'm scared," said Sarai Luna Pajas, a 22-year-old social services worker standing outside her office building moments after it hit. "We Mexicans are not used to living with so much fear, but all that is happening—the economic crisis, the illnesses and now this—it feels like the Apocalypse."

The only scary news item we really can't (yet) associate with Mexico is all that torture memo craziness, and that's because nobody has figured out yet that Pancho Villa invented waterboarding.
