Making his bones

Jackson-etc-024

"La catrina" is the nickname name for the skeleton of a cadaver in Mexico, and I am not the first to notice that association between death in Mexico and "Katrina," the name of the hurricane that broke the levees in New Orleans. The well dressed gent above walked through the streets of the French Quarter Festival not long ago. But don't you think he would have been right at home in Mexico?
