Some say it has been in the city for years, while others say it does not exist at all... The only known evidence of it's existence is an abstruse interview between El Diablo and an unnamed Horseman. The following is a transcript of the interview, which took place in an undisclosed location, at an unknown date, somewhere in Edmonton, Canada. The conversation lasted exactly 6 minutes, El Diablo permitted the horseman to ask him 6 questions, and during the interview, El Diablo drank 6 shots of tequila. The interview... Horseman: What brings you to Edmonton? El Diablo: The El Cortez...And the beautiful women Horseman: What is the El Cortez? El Diablo: The El Cortez is freedom. It is expression. And it's a great place to grab a taco. Horseman: And the women? Tell me about them... El Diablo: Tequila + Women = Sexo Horseman: Tequila? El Diablo: El Cortez is a tequila bar, you idiot. Horseman: When is the world going to end? El Diablo: The minute you grow up, and stop living. Horseman: Ok, so where do I find "this" El Cortez? El Diablo: You don't find the El Cortez... The El Cortez finds you...
