U Speaky Spanish? Here's a great website


I found the Spanish version of Scrappleface only I think it's much funnier. El Chiguire Bipolar (The Bipolar Capybara) is hysterically funny. The mentally disturbed oversized rodent's slogan is "Noticias parciales y sin veracidad a manos de un roedor con peos psicológicos." or "Biased news without a shred of truth delivered by a rodent who has brain farts." That's a great slogan; I might have to rethink "Thoughts that are at peace, and also true." My slogan sounds boring.

My mother-in-law is back in Maracaibo and just had her 1988 Toyota Corolla stolen the other day. The reason they kept the pre-Cambrian vehicle was that no one would ever think to steal it. It was the only small car I ever felt safe in. But after 9 1/2 years of Chavez, desperation has made everything that isn't nailed down....of great value.
