Who: Martin Garcia
Age: 21
Spotted: At the Great American Hero sub shop on Lemmon Avenue
Occupation: Service industry.
How he shows his patriotism: This fourth-generation Mexican-American Capricorn plans to attend Independence Day with his family and mini Schnauzer, Dolce Presley (Martin is obsessed with both Elvis and Marilyn). Later in the evening, he’ll probably drag his mother and a couple of his cousins out for a night of clubbing (Tin Room is a favorite).

I’ll admit that I enjoy Mark Stokes’ drawings even the erotic ones. With that said, I am disappointed in this week’s selection. It is very disrespectful and insulting to use the US flag as a “crotch cover-up”. Shame on you.
