Mario,
You are not the only Mexican without a middle name. I also do not have a middle name because my parents didn’t believe in middle names, so you’re not alone. FELIZ CUMPLIANOS MARIO!

Happy 36th Birthday Mario!!!

Now I have to straighten something out
with you~Alexander Skarsgard’s not a
“Supporting charachter in TrueBlood”
he’s the Boss of Bill Compton,played
by Stephen Moyer.
The mixup comes when Stephen’s character
was seen first in season 1~But it’s
really Eric Northman who’s Sheriff of
area 5 in the show/books!!!
