I thank the Virgin for the opportunity to met the boatman Pedro in Acapulco. I’m going to take him with me to New York.

Thank you very much, Mother Meera, for three girls in a row rejected me so I decided to become a monk and now I live happy forever in your Ashram.

I send a thousand blessings to St. Rita high up in heaven for granting me a husband, a detached house with garden, cat-flop and close to amenities and tube. And two kittens.

Being under the effects of a bad combination of spliff, beer, vodka and absinthe, I forgot that cars circulate on the wrong side of the road in this country. The Holy Angels sent a police officer on time before a 73 ran me over. I didn’t lose my life, just £100 fine. Thank you, Angels.

Thank you Lord that I didn’t have to pay a reward as Moth came back after two months. He’s got dysentery and one ear missing but he’s now home and I won’t kick him anymore when he pees in my Christian Dior coat.

May you be blessed, Virgin of San Juan, for healing me from an infection I got from a prostitute. I also asked you so that my wife wouldn’t find out about this. I thank for that.

Mauricio Gallegos had some shots of tequila in the town. On his way back home he rode his horse and, since it was very dark, hit a wasp nest. The insects were furious. They got out and start stinging him. He thanks Saint Quiteria for she gave extra speed to his horse so it ran like the wind to the river. They submerged in it and saved themselves from the wasp stings. They got only few stings.

A demon got in my room through the window and began to put my clothes on. He spent the night looking at himself in the mirror. I was scared and very insulted because all my clothes smelt like sulphur. Then I got an idea to take the mirror to the henhouse. Thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan, the devil didn’t come back. Now he visits my neighbor’s room because she smells like sulphur and she has a very beautiful mirror.

I dedicate this retablo to Saints Cosmas and Damian, patrons of the medics and the surgeons, for protecting me during my 18 plastic surgeries. It was the only way to achieve my dream to look exactly like Maicol, my favorite artist.

Up until that day I had not been a believer, but the signs were too clear to be ignored and the poodle was cute.

The cat of the boy Ramon Lopez was lost. One month later, after praying to St. Nicholas, the cat appeared in the window. They dedicate this retablo thanking for that.
