Ooo... "chupacabra" literally means "goat sucker". Did not know that.

I didn't actually. Chupacabra's one of the words inducted into the OED this year.

It's basically the Hispanic version of Dracula, but instead of sucking on the necks of nubial young females, it attacks goats... ;)

Someone I know that is a graphic artist actually made up a Chubacabra Tequilla T-Shirt with a cartoon goat on the front with a half lime hanging off one of the horns and a salt shacker shaking salt on the goat and the caption read, "Do you like your goat with Lime or Salt?" and the back of the Shirt had a cartoon Vampire Bat wearing sunglasses with Chubacabra Tequilla wrapping around the circular picture of the Chubacabra. :)
