El Sangrador de Babalú
Leading up to this year's Cuba Nostalgia, there was some speculation whether or not our fearless Managing Editor, Alberto "El Sangrador" de la Cruz would once again prove his willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice for our island on the net without a bearded dictator.
He didn't lose a drop all weekend, but alas, when we dismantled the noble Babalú structure Monday morning, Alberto once again made the sacrifice.
We're not sure how it happened, but as Val and Al were busy working (I was supervising) suddenly, Al was bleeding.
Just as we were considering calling MedEvac, Al was able to stem the flow so we could, ahem, judge the severity of the wound.
I'm happy to report that the patient survived, and is diligently back at work exposing the brutality of the Castro regime.
Thank goodness Alberto doesn't have Romanov blood, or else the booth would have been ruined...
Well, I think Alberto should only do manual labor under medical supervision. He's obviously, uh, delicate. He really shouldn't be hanging around rough types like Val and George.
Asombra, you have got to be kidding me.
"Tough guy types like Val and George?"
Val, the human sprinkler system?
George, the IT guy?
If those are "tough guys," I'm Chuck Norris.
Alberto, I expect the real Chuck Norris is no Chuck Norris.
I dont know about being a tough guy, and I may be the human sprinkler system, but at least I know how to use tools without drawing blood. It's a good thing we dont give out Purple Hearts here, else Alberto would have to take steroids just to help him hold up his chest full of medals.
The "IT guy" and Ziva were superb supervisors...
I tell you, we have quite a diverse crew here at Babalu, lol.
"The Bleeder", "The Human Sprinkler", "The IT-Guy" and the "Supervisor", it sounds like characters for a TV sitcom...
