Actually it was a dark, desert highway that begins the lyrics for the hit classic by the Eagles, “Hotel California.”

While listening to it, the next part makes sense, “cool wind in my hair.” But then the line, “warm smell of colitas . . .” and now I’m realizing I have no idea what are colitas?

So I looked it up, and it is a Mexican word that means “little tail,” which makes no sense. So, digging deeper, I finally found out that colitas is Mexican slang for pot, specifically the plant buds. So now I’ve been educated today.
