I get a much clearer image of George Bush (the unelected one) doing the same; I'm too young to be familiar with Chuck Norris. And I spent most of my earlier childhood in Texas (the Austin area)! Oh, the shame! Raging horror! I am from around there! And as such, I speak Spanglish (Or Texican, whichever you prefer) relativly well. I, once, was enlisted by my parental unit male to help him speak to the people working on our house. After all, he couldn't give them the beers without explaining why he was giving them away. And saying "My house" in English didn't really work. -The Sock (Who may just have to hide from his Texan-itis) --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
