In English or Spanish?  |
...or Ebonics?
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

None taken, some of my best friends are bolillos.
But I do draw the line at Pan Bimbo.  |

I live in a small town on the border that is at least 99% Mexican. A candidate for city council was recently stricken from the ballot by a judge
because she was not fluent in English and AZ law requires English in council procedings.

Saw a bit on the news about that woman, who was not
proficient in English enough to sit on the Council.
Hey Oso, I read that Yuma is the #1
sunniest places in the US, although you probably
know that from living there, seems the 1st to get to
100 in the spring and the last to get under 100 in
Oct. |
Not just the US, it's the sunniest place on EARTH. That's official according to Guiness, more days of sunshine than the Sahara desert. It's easy to
spot the Canucks here in the Winter. They are walking around in shorts and tee shirts when it's 60F. The locals are wearing parkas. Right now it's
sunny and 77F. Nice, but 115F is coming...
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Coconut= i.e. Oreo but brown on the outside, white on the inside. I was explaining this to an Asian American friend when she wondered what she might
be called. We settled on "Banana".
