Hispanic Business Magazine Discovers Latinos Use E-mail, Cellphones
In what is probably the retardedest “article” we’ve seen in a long time, Hispanic Business Magazine’s Hildy Medina reports that Latino executives like to use email and cell phones to stay connected (!!!). “From the founder of a nonprofit to the head of a multimillion-dollar engineering firm, the Hispanic executives we spoke to have one or more wireless devices that play a critical role in their day-to-day living.” We would have never guessed. George Pla, one of such trailblazing Hispanic executives has discovered the infinite wonders of the cellphone:
Having the mobile technology that allows him to conduct business from his car or off site allows him to use his time more efficiently. “I’m calling you on my car phone […] It’s really handy and really convenient for someone that’s on the road.”
Shocker. We thought Latinos used smoke signals, the burro express, and the quetzalcoatlPod.

Me siento vacio sin mi telefono de botes y cuerda.

Don’t tell them we use TiVo and read blogs. They just might blow their brains out from disbelief!

@dancecontestwinner: no, it’s porn for brown guys, too. Like me.
And duh, of course we use cell phones and the internet—how else do they expect us to place encrypted ads on craigslist to sell drugs, and be contacted by people to get said drugs? Guh, it’s like ::hello::.
