And the Oh yeah well the the Mordita experience really occurred when I was a kid.

My first exposure to Mexican Mordita corruption. Mordita means bite. And in Mexico it simply means that that is how people make their way, you know, taking a bite whenever they can.

And in this case, when it comes to law enforcement, they take a little bite of

money for looking the other money for you know looking the other way

or helping to facilitate or worse. And so when I was seven, I think I was seven,

maybe eight. I'm driving around Tiquana, I think we're down there to get haircuts and grab tortillas or a pinyata.

And my dad is just me and my dad.

I'm in the right front passenger seat.

My dad gets pulled over by a motor cop.

And the cop approaches the window.

My dad pulls this wallet out and out he pulls out just enough to see it was either

a 10 or 20.

It was in the 60s, so it must have been a 10 with the tip of his driver's license.

So the cop takes the wallet, takes the bill, the 10, and returns his wallet and walks back to his motorcycle and then just

takes off.

Have a good day.

My dad looks at me and smiles and that's the end of that.

And so it wasn't until I became older that I realized,

hey, this is corruption

you know dealing professionally in in Mexico so you know very conscientious of how things worked in Tiquana and reflected back on my time in

Mexicali and realized, hey, it's just, I feel the same way that... I want to mention you talk about the corruption down there and the

ten dollar bill with your dad when we were in Colombia it never happened to me quite honestly
