we just got this awesome spanish software - we've already learned alot in just a few days. they make it sooo easy. the talk in spanish all through it so we can repeat but they also help you get the exact pronouncation correct so it's easier to communicate. it's awesome!!!!! we have a lot of spanish speaking people around here and i'd like to be able to talk to them. i hate having a whole group of people around me and i am unable to talk to them!!!!!! It must be frustrating to have a language barrier. I feel the same way when I go to Orlando and the southern tourists are loose. I swear some speak completely different languages. One of my favorite perks of knowing a different language is being able to talk about people right in front of them and they have no clue. I hope I don't make you paranoid, Charity ( I think I saw your name on the Jeff Branson Fan club. That's it isn't it? ).

Hmmm..Do you want to tell them off or get a date? I could teach you some naughty words that probably didin't make the computer software program . But I must warn you I'm better at insults than endearments. Insults are more handy in my part of town Why can't I find a tall blue eyed blond that's sober and doesn't have a substance abuse issue?

Liz, feel free to pull this if it's a little too Charity, try a basic Que tu mira? "What are you looking at" Or if you want to get bold and nasty Vete pa' carajo comemierda It means " Go To Hell Sh!teater" I'd be careful who you'd say that to, though. I'll PM you a real nasty one if you want. I don't want to get banned here!

Are you still confessing true ages? Well I`m 37 & recently , to my delight a little old lady ( admittedly slightly mad) asked me if i was 25! I immediately rang my husband in triumph , only to be asked "Did you have Carl ( our 9 yr old) with you ? " Yes " I said gleefully ! That`s why I`m so smug!" " Woa" he says " Partially blind AND mathematically challenged! What would you say to someone this rude to whom you have given 14 years of your life ?

it's a complete spanish program from the u.s. institute of languages and it's called visual link. our area majorly cut schools budget. they don't teach foreign language anymore - well not in middle school. HELLO? has anyone heard how much of our country is spanish speaking!!!! they also cut out most of the art etc. i actually understood some people at great america who were looking for the bathroom!!!!!! it's not a traveling type program but i happened to learn that!!!!!!!
