What you missed . . .

This was the front-page news here in Mexico City November 5, which trumped the US election news. The US election news apparently trumped this story, because I don't know any Americans (except Ashley) who have heard of it. A lear jet carrying the Secretario de Gobernacíon, Juan Camillo Mouriño crashed at Reforma and Periferico (not far from our neighborhood,) killing him and 5 others, along with several others who were hit by the plane, including 40 injuries and 20 damaged cars. Because Mouriño had been an enemy of the drug cartel, President Calderón ordered a thorough investigation into the cause of the crash.
