A practical tip for readers in the Phoenix area.

Until Sheriff Joe and his fellows are reined in, try not to look Mexican while driving. As can be inferred from the immediate previous post, it could make for a long and interesting day. Take off the tejana hat (or trade it for a sporty Vietnamese model), turn off the Morrissey, apply blackface makeup, learn a good Indian or Pakistani accent--do what you can. If detained, ask which way is east so you can pray facing Mecca.
