Hello!

Mi madre va a comer mi gato.

No mi gusto frejoles en mi zapatos.

Amazing - my hovercraft is also full of eels!

Greetings, Michelle! I see the thread is officially hi-jacked.

Hello, Michelle.  Another 'Zoni here.

How are the earthquakes going?

Wait!

We have TWO Mexicalis here now?

Perhaps they really are taking over so they can take all our jobs!

I did see Jack with a scalpel the other day...


Hmmmmmm........

Where is that wall?

My biggest challenge and frustration is Spanish.  It's easy for a child to pick up a 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th language but OMG!  Spanish is killing me!  It is so much harder for adults.  I can get by and they have a bit of a clue what topic I am discussing but they have to really work hard to understand me.  I work for a surgeon here, we call him Dr. Juan because when I say his name nobody knows who I am talking about.  They always ALWAYS correct me and tell me how to say his name and I would swear that is exactly what and how I just said it!  

I have your talent for foreign language.  In France I make them beg me to switch to English before I'll stop butchering the French.  Never had to do that with Spanish, partly because I can pronounce that a hell of a lot better though I can not trill an R to save to my life.  But in either language I can't understand a native speaker who doesn't speak one word at a time as if I was a baby, and really my pronunciation pretty much sucks in any language.

Nice to cyber meet you.  Living in Berkeley California I am so jealous of your cost of living!

SON OF A BITCH..... They let anyone in here...... Why did they let me in here?

Be sure to barbecue kittens, record the NFL without their permission, and rip the tags off of your mattress. Booze to the right, hookers to the left and fundies under the floorboards in the basement. Be sure to tip your wait staff.

That's fuckin it! I've been moist reluctant to Google that but I did finally se-cum, (apparently that's not a real word ). Are you the Mark to which this page refers?

Mark asks: Why is it illegal to remove mattress and pillow tags?

Bonus Facts:

• Over 10 years, your mattress can double in weight because of accumulated dust and other particles.
  
• The average mattress has between 100,000 and 10,000,000 dust mites in it.
  
• 10% of the weight of your pillow may comprise dead dust mites and their droppings
  
• Our mattresses and bedding take some abuse. Each night, an average person sweats between half a pint and a full pint of fluid into their bedding and mattress…and that is just while they are sleeping! Never mind how many fluids are released during special bedtime Olympic events. We also lose a large amount of dead skin while we sleep which sits on or in our mattresses and pillows.
  
• The average life span of a mattress is between 8-1o years.
  
• A comfortable bed can give you up to an extra hour of sleep a night.
  
• You are actually 2 centimeters taller in your sleep since during the day your spine is compressed. At night it has a chance to straighten out.
  

Bollocks I say!

I was born in Des Moines, then lived in AZ after school, and now I live in Mexico doing medical tourism.

Medical tourism? This is what girls in Ireland call a weekend in Liverpool.

I think medical tourism is going into a morgue and sucking on some coldies!
