Happy Paco Day

Hope everyone had a splendid holiday today. I demanded the day off, but My employer fails to recognize our religious beliefs that Paco is a god.

I've been thinking about him all day today. I can't believe it has been 7 years already.

Paco should appear on google doodle one day. The 25th of February would be the day. Flamenco as an art will profit from it and its popularity will increase.

Already appeared on 21. Dec 2016 - Paco's 69th birthday. No one has mentioned it so far on the foro?

Did I miss the Paco Doodle in 2016? That’s the thing, I don’t even notice/pay attention to those doodles anymore. Especially because of not needing to go to the Google homepage to search.

I just came to know it appeared only on Spanish and Latin American google - so only in the spanish speaking world. They thought Paco was not relevant outside of Spain and Latin America.

Some interesting facts about google doodle:

- Any person honoured as a Google Doodle must be deceased.

- Not all doodles are global. Many are local or national. It depends on the topic and how relevant it is to people.
