N.B. We totally saw this video weeks ago, not realizing it was our dear Gael, which happens to change everything (funny how that works). Watch closely, chamaquitos....

When we received news that Mexico City mayor Marcelo Ebrard approved giving out free Viagra to men over 70, we were thrilled! I mean, why should old men have to kiss sex goodbye just because they can no longer...well, you know. More after the jump.

We cant deny that César Chávezs now famous rally cry influenced President-elect Obama's, but did the late United Farmer Workers leader get the credit for his words that he deserves? More after the jump.

Around this time, every year, we know we can finally enjoy some good Latin American film in the Bay Area thanks to the International Latino Film Festival. On Friday, the opening night was held, as usual, at the beautiful Castro Theatre and you could feel the excitement in the air for the premiere of this, the 12th edition of the festival.

Last night we watched history play out in front of teary eyes and open ears. Obama won by a landslide thanks to a huge turnout of newly registered voters, nearly 70% of Latino voters and black supporters across the country. Obama's win represents so much not only to people of color, but American people who proved they're ready for change. Mas after the jump.

Ready, set, go! And we’re ready for Halloween and Dia de los Muertos festivities, from the serious - gala receptions at Galeria de La Raza, and classical concerts at Davies Symphony Hall - to the dirrrty, which we prefer.
How about a Caribbean Halloween Bash over at an Indian restaurant, or culear to reggaeton at a "South American" Halloween fiesta? We think no one sees us dancing to Wisin y Yandel underneath our Chapulin costume...that’s the beauty of dressing up (or down).
If by this point you’ve had enough pan de muerto to sustain you for the entire winter, you can still check out films at the SF Doc Fest.
Enjoy the weekend!

Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, who made a name for himself (sadly) in Chasing Papi and more recently, Bella, had nerve to go on a rant behind camera about him supporting McCain because he's so strongly anti-abortion. WTF? Stick to trying to act and leave women's rights alone. More after the jump.

As if the former Saved by the Bell star's career comeback couldn't get any better—his Dancing with the Stars fame was quickly followed by a host gig at Extra—dimpled cutie Mario Lopez copped an interview with presidential hopeful Barack Obama. More after the jump.

For all those Latinos out there who couldn't relate to Joe the Plumber from Ohio, no se preocupen--meet Tito the Builder!! Colombian by birth, now an American citizen and construction company owner in Virginia, Tito Muñoz is Sarah Palin's new right-hand man/favorite name to drop on the campaign trail.
He introduced her at a rally recently (wearing his yellow hard hat and fluorescent orange vest), and Palin joked, "Not since the Jackson Five has the name Tito been used so often." (Really? I bet you'd find plenty of Titos in California, Texas, Florida, New York, Arizona, New Mexico, Illinois, Nevada, Virginia, North Carolina......)
We can't wait to see who's next in the Republican party's lineup of characters, who are starting to sound like Playmobil toys (or cartoon characters?). Eddie the Electrician? Ken the Carpenter?
Learn more about Tito the Builder here and here, and check him out in action after the jump...
