I have to give the Metro salute twice a day when I drive by the CAMI plant where almost all of our little gems were built. I have to use tea instead.

If I were forced to match wits against another human in order to survive certain death, I'd hope that other human was not Tofuball. ANd...I enrolled in a Mandarin Chinese class (because I was seeing a Chinese gal ). One class and I went and dropped it. There was no possible way in hell I was ever going to learn that.

in most of the countries i have been to all over the world, most of western europe, all south east asia, the east coast of asia, most people not only speak english, it is taught in every decent school. it is the lingua franca of the world. you can learn to speak other people's language or you can just wait until they speak english. if you want to make it anywhere in the world you must speak english, all of my cousins in bangladesh and my relatives who have moved to canada and the US agree with this. so long rant short, i started learning spanish back in high school, but i hate how the language sounded and how stupid the grammar and conjugations were so i quit. |

I have been bi-lingual for as long as I can remember---I have always had the ability to hold up both hands to show IDIOTS both my middle fingers at the same time. |

I'm in my junior year of French, and I highly support everyone learning a second or third language. Even if you don't become fluent, it's one of the best things you could ever do for yourself. Lot's of resources online, and I found Rosetta Stone was an awesome jump start to the process before taking any classes. Definitely go for it! |

You are on the right track CB. Learn Spanish or any other language that you can. Get rid of the stereotypes of what people think, Speaking another language can only be a asset. When I was in Japan I learned to speak Japanese half assed. I mixed up genders and words but sometimes I could make them understand me. I was never very good at it but it was fun learning. A bed room dictionary makes the job easier but that is another story. LOL .................learn and have fun. |

I will say it once and only once (I'm very very nice but not on this subject) I LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES, not mexico, not canada, not france, etc. Therefore I speak English and only English and if they don't like it then I have a nice ass they can bend over and kiss. I'm fair to all races, sexes, anyone really, but I'm stout on this subject.
