Ya know - when I was in HS, in the '80's, I always heard that Americans should learn another language. I think we were "guilted' into that lie... Sounded reasonable at the time, but... I went on to learn German (very well), Portuguese (very Well), Spanish (European - Somewhat well), and a bit of Swahili (poor, but passable)... You know what?
I seemed to offend every place else by not learning their language... I pissed off Saudis, Russians, French (pfffft!

) Romainans, Morrocan's, Indians, Koreans and Belgians (ohhh - and the Dutch - though my German was usually sufficient to get around Holland...).
I decided that there ain't no pleasing most people... Fuck 'em! Furthermore, anyplace I ever went, they could get buy in English well enough to sell me something and get me around, if they wanted to make some money...
Aside from "love".. The US dollar is a better translator than "Rosetta Stone" or USA-DLI could ever be...
Screw 'em...
You want our money and attention, tell me - who loves ya?
Learn fricken English... I am tired or learning your quasi-phucked-up BS native tongues....
Macbeau sends...
(And NO - This is not an endorsement of the Minutemen... I'm just sayin')
