So much has changed since the last time El Pasoans were able to celebrate St. Patrick s Day.
Back then we didn t have to worry about social distancing, wearing masks, and having a grand time. Now, St. Patrick s Day will be somewhat different this year despite the Covid-19 regulations lift.
I won t be surprised if people don t turn up on St. Patrick s Day as they did years prior to the pandemic. Despite current times, we can at least enjoy looking back at past good times with friends.
While some of us enjoy St. Patrick s for the green beer others enjoy it for the shenanigans.
Luchadoras, and it s described as follows:
Directed by Paola Calvo and Patrick Jasim,
Luchadoras follows three women from Juárez as they wrestle and fight to overcome their own personal struggles while living in one of the most dangerous cities in the world. News reports of the latest murder victims including a young activist, Isabel Cabanillas, who rode her bike everywhere to stay as close as possible to the community play throughout the film. These reports never seem to stop. They’re unsettling.
Check out the trailer
Luchadoras:
The issues that women run into south of the border are getting more and more news coverage. Check out this report from Vice that dates back to just last August.
When any kind of holiday or day of celebration rolls around TxDOT sure does make drivers feel special. The Texas Department of Transportation always comes up with the funniest or clever messages for drivers. If you re like me and pay attention to the TxDOT signs on special days like today, be sure to read the next one you come across.
Every holiday TxDOT somehow ties in whatever special day it is with driving responsibly. It s nice to come across some humor on the TxDot signs while you re driving on the road. Just like a couple of years ago in 2019 TxDOT s clever message touched some people s hearts.
Donations Needed to Restore the Flag Pole in Northeast El Paso
The flag pole is located in the Northeast at Old Glory Memorial.
The pole measured at 180-foot that held a 5,000 square foot flag for some time. Anyone who would be driving on US 54 Patriot Freeway would get a glimpse of the beautiful flag.
The pole was installed back in 2003 except, due to certain issues, it had to be removed.

Since the removal, the veterans have been trying their hardest to have another new flag pole placed in the same spot where the old one was at. The funds that were raised totaled $26,000 but even then that amount still isn t enough. The new installment costs $105,000, which means they re still $79,000 short.
