New Mexico Rantings

Okay, so I'm in New Mexico and I learn, to my chagrin, the following interesting and possibly amusing factoids:
1. New Mexico (Albuquerque, I believe) is the DWI capital of the world. I'm unclear as to whether that means number of stops or number of fatalities. I was told fatalities.
2. Occasionally, a snake will fall out of a tree and land on you. If it's a bull snake, don't worry. They're friendly. Watch out for the rattlers, though.
3. The gift basket people here will not try to sell you the more expensive basket, even if you ask for it by name. In fact, they will attempt to dissuade you from parting with your extra $5.
4. Also, possums. They fall out of trees. Watch out for them, too.

That's all the interesting tidbits that I learned today about New Mexico. That, and sopapillas are truly a wonderful, fattening thing. I will not need to eat for the next 3 days.
