Our duty is to be useful not according
to our desires but according to our power.
-- Henry Amiel.

Prologue.

Imagine all I wanted to do was learn a little street Spanish, drink beer and remain anonymous.What I got was drunk a lot, laid a lot, almost stabbed, picked up for a DWI and yes, “I still don’t speak the Spanish too well.”

Story.

My intentions were good. My method was suspect. ALAMEDA BARS.

Epilogue.

After the murders at the El Kumbala, I realized that I had known or met the perks or the victims in many of these bar murders. So this is my "power" to bring you my collection of El Paso, DEADBARS.
s are three sets of bars: DEADBARS, THE ALAMEDA BARS and EL KUMBALA. All the deadbars have photos, newspaper clippings and notesee. Th pages are under constant "re-visioning." Be patient only I know when it is right.

Notes:

El Paso Texas is a safe city, but the murders at El Kumbala shook up many of the neighborhoods of this city. Seven people shot mob style, five died, one missing, people arrested and charges dropped.

It just didn’t happen.
