    My language is beautiful.
    You live in the United States and you don't know Spanish?
    Please learn it. :D

    Mi lenguaje es bello.
    ¿Vives en los EE.UU. y no sabes español?
    Por favor apréndelo. :D

    I've been meaning to take up a Spanish class at a local college.

    I'm infatuated by Latinas, and some of the, ahem, places that I seek said creatures out don't speak English.

    hell it's not that hard.

    just add an -o or -a to everything, and you've got it.

    take off a few letters of the english word in question, as necessary.

    ¡Muy bien! Sería mejor "para los Estados Unidos". Te faltó Héroes del Silencio - ¿Entre dos Tierras?
    ---------------------
    For those of you Spanish-challenged:
    Good! "para los Estados Unidos" would be better. You missed Héroes del Silencio - Entre dos Tierras?

    coma, there are plenty of AUDIO CDs at the local library in levels, and continuing education classes at universities... also, I don't charge MUCHO DINERO! :p

    Swoly,

    Is learning Spanish as hard as deciphering one of your posts? I thought Rocket River has hard to read posts, but you take the cake!

    EDIT: I hate Karl Malone, but I like taking the cake.

    Certainly NOT, brother. :D Next time, I said already, you just ask and I will explain my post to you. :)

    Anyway, what SAID PLACES do you go to? Maybe I go to them as well...? ;)

    King Kong, Palace, Chuchis, some small place called Bar Latino off of Harwin.

    If as many girls come up to me at those places as guys do asking me what the hell I'm doing there, I'd be doing alright.

    This topic reminds of this one particular excerpt from the book America:The Book written by the writers of Jon Stewart's The Daily Show. Anyway, the chapter on Media has a formula for creating your tv newscaster name. Under minority names the recommended formula is to combine the name of a Saint + a Spanish curse word. A few examples are then followed:

    Ignacio Cabron
    Maria Pendejo
    Francisco Tu Madre Es Una Puta Fea

    classic

    HEY! I caught the after-hours thing there at Bar Latino... isn't it Mundo Latino? Are you the rhythmless white dude doing his best attempt at Merengue during the wee hours of Friday midnight? I've been there... I think I've seen you...

    Anyway, here is something that I received a while back. It's for all you Gringos, LatinoAmericanos-wannabes ;) :
    ==========================
    There's always something to learn or to try, many times you need to say some phrase in Spanish, but you don't know how to say it, don't worry, your problems have finished, if your are a gringo and you don't know speak Spanish, the Smart Gringo will be helpful in your learning. For instance, we took from it some common phrases, just try and you're gonna see the difference and how easy is speak Spanish. (leerlo primero en inglés, esta genial)

    - Boy as n r = Voy a cenar = I'm gonna have a dinner.
    - N L C John = en el sillon = on the armchair
    - Be a hope and son = viejo panzon = fat old man
    - Who and see to seek ago = Juancito se cagó = Little John is a chicken things.
    - S toy tree stone = estoy triston = I'm kind a sad.
    - Lost trap eat toss = los trapitos = the little rags
    - Desk can saw = descanso = (you) rest.
    - As say toon as = aceitunas = olives.
    - The head the star mall less stan dough = deje de estar molestando = stop bugging me.
    - See eye = si hay = yes we have
    - T n s free o ? = tienes frio = are you cold?
    - T N S L P P B N T S O = Tienes el pipi bien tieso = you have an erection.
    - Tell o boy ah in cruise tar = Te lo voy a incrustar = I'm going to insert it in you
    ====================

    No, it is not a shot at you, akperez ;). Toodles.

    I majored in Spanish in college (along with Mech Engineering). It was kinda fun. I really don't ever use it anymore, but it was very useful when I worked in Guadalajara.

    That's definitely not me. I've never been there on a Friday, and I'm not white.

    I was walking down the street the other day and I said hello to a nice Spanish speaking gentleman. He replied back:

    Chupa mi la pinche verga, puto!!!!

    Not sure about the spelling, but is that some sort of traditional Mexican greeting?

    :confused:
