They’re everywhere! Sushi restaurants or the ABC Stores! You can make them in your hotel room if  you  have a rice cooker and a microwave. But why bother?

DONALD TRUMP’S REVISED IMMIGRATION PROPOSAL

Trump’s new proposed U.S.-Mexico Border

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Realizing that he won’t be able to force Mexico to pay for the great wall that he wants to build along the U.S. southern border, Republican  presidential candidate and frontrunner Donald Trump has revised his anti-immigration policy proposal.

Trump now wants to sell California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas back to Mexico and use the money to pay for a new U.S. border wall north and east of these states.

Up until 1848,  California and its neighboring southwest states were internationally recognized provinces of free Mexico, until the U.S. decided it wanted those provinces, declared war on Mexico and stole them.

“I am a businessman and I make decisions based on what’s good for business,” Trump said. “Americans  and Mexicans both will thank me for it. It will finally put to rest America’s dragged-out immigration problem without costing us a cent.”

This new policy could very well be Trump’s ticket to The White House.

WHAT ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER WILL SAY TO THOSE WHO WILL BE FIRED IN ‘CELEBRITY APPRENTICE’

Leave a comment

maxresdefaultNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles®) – When Celebrity Apprentice returns to NBC for the 2016–17 television season, television audiences will no longer hear the once familiar phrase, “You’re Fired,” now that Donald Trump has been terminated from the show.

The new season will feature former California Governor and international movie star Arnold Schwarzenegger in the the role of CEO who will fire and eliminate contestants from the reality show.

Instead, NBC announced that contestants will be eliminated with Schwarzenegger saying, “You’re terminated!”

But writers and focus groups convened by NBC have a little bit of a problem with “You’re terminated!”

“It’s not catchy, not sexy at all,” they said in total agreement.

Although the phrase has a natural connection to the movie series that Schwarzenegger is closely identified with — “Terminator” — writers and focus group members felt the show needed something that would easily standout and be the new show’s memorable trademark.

Today, NBC announced that it has found the perfect phrase to replace, “You’re fired!”

That phrase is:

“Hasta la vista, baby!”

It is “You’re fired,” “You’re terminated,” “You’re out of here,” “See ya later,” all combined.  And it will appeal to all audiences, including  Spanish-speaking television viewers across the globe.
