Happy Birthday shout-outs to Michael "The Mustachio" Hopewell and Kim Laina "El Diablo" Jacobson.
The Mustachio was born on this day in 1987 in and around Cincinnati, Ohio. When asked about the delivery Barbara Hopewell commented, "It was extremely easy. Mike simply walked out, gave everyone in the room a head-nod, and then asked if anyone knew the score of the Bengal's game." His first meal consisted of spaghetti... topped with chili... topped with shredded cheese. Some call it CINCINNATI CHILI. Mike earned himself the nickname, 'The Mustachio", after occasionally sporting his signature mustache in the hopes of stumbling upon a Bashio.
Kim Laina was born on this day in 1988 in Colombia, South Mexico. She earned the nickname 'El Diablo' immediately upon birth when she punched her way through her mother's stomach... like a fighting chicken. Kim decided at an early age that she did not want to pursue a career in the cocaine industry... and being as how that was the only possible career choice in her native land, she decided to flee to the States. She knew that it would be risky trying to cross into the US at the US/Mexican border... so El Diablo swam from South Mexico, through the Caribbean, up the Atlantic along the Eastern Coast of the US, and finally came ashore in Connecticut.
Mike and Kim first met in 2007 in Ithaca, NY when their shared interest in stretchable fabrics brought them together at the first annual Spandex Lovers of America Convention.
They've been good friends ever since.
Happy Birthday to you both.
