Passed out and the family is singing

Here is what a few female family members do if you are passed out during a party in Colombia. Note*, he didn't wake up: Nor, to this day, does he have any idea he was sang to. He is a costeno, the girls are llaneras, his wife is sitting next to him.

I thought it was a pretty cool little video of real life in Colombia during a happy time.

It just cuts short of the bit where he slowly opens his eyes, smiles meekly, and projectile vomits over the whole lot of them. That´s what happened to me anyway.

Sorry guys, I just got in trouble. I assumed the video was fine to post - the Mrs. disagrees. I was forced to delete it. It looks like I will have to start asking permission to post photos or videos before I actually do it - no matter how innocent or harmless I think the images are.

You didn't miss anything Slguy. It was just a 30 second video of 3 girls singing to a passed out Costeno. It was the Mrs, her sister and cousin. Mom and aunt in the background. You couldn't even see the video that well. It didn't even occur to me that it was something the Mrs. would care about. I was apparently wrong.

eywed, I hear ya. But I have to respect her wishes.
