that's okay, Graffiti writers don't do "top to bottom" burners on box cars, either. I won't tell anybody if you don't.

that's not a top to bottom either. that's somebody doing a whole lot of "throw up" letters on a train.

Actually I'm sure occasionally somebody will do a whole car on a boxcar, but it's rare. Besides, in my world, that's what box cars should look like.

OK, you win.

Look! A distraction!

This made me go hunt down the video and picture myself sitting in front of the TV with a bowl of cereal.

For what it's worth, the boxcars in the cartoon do have a bit of a peak to them.

I was always more partial to "Unpack Your Adjectives", but this is still pretty cool.

Remember when animal crackers came in little red boxes resembling circus cars?

Yeah, that's totally what this made me think of.

J5 is keeping it polite, because he knows I get my thing in action.

I don't think I've ever seen a truck that makes Al Pastor on a vertical spit. No spit, no Al Pastor. Damn, now I want some proper Al Pastor.

yeah, I've usually gotten it from the big aluminum tray full of al pastor and pineapple bits. I like to think it had been on a spit at some point in its life.

Damn, now I want some rabanos and lime.

Maybe, to accomodate spits, the trucks need pitched roofs.

All of this taco truck talk is making me homesick. First place I'm hitting when I go visit "home" in a month or two, is El Antojito, in Gardena.
