Europol has dropped a massive report detailing hundreds of shifting criminal networks across Europe, proving that bureaucratic red tape is the only thing slower than a continental mafia. Meanwhile, down here in Baja California Sur, the local cartels are strictly focused on maintaining the sacred equilibrium of two-hour lunch breaks and making sure nobody checks the surf report too early. While European lawmakers hyperventilate over transnational fraud rings, we are much more concerned with whether the Pacific swell will hold through Thursday afternoon. Frankly, if international crime syndicates had to deal with the suffocating heat and a lazy afternoon Pacific breeze, they would retire into a hammock by noon.
