I live in SE Florida and usually get my hair cut at supercuts. #4 on top #2 on the sides, nothing fancy, and I want it done in less than 10 minutes, and NO I don't want any "product"! I don't think the South Florida super-cuts people got the No Spanish memo...I always use my ten minutes in the chair to practice my Spanish with the girls. The Latinas are one of my favorite things about living down here. And for the record Spanish has been spoken in Florida hundreds of years longer than English has. I have a lot of Spanish speaking friends, if they are conversing in Spanish when I approach they will switch to English, not because they're talking about me but out of respect. Unless they are arguing, then it's always in Spanish, I'm told Spanish is a far superior language for arguments.

Spanish has a "sound" that conveys anger a bit better than English. In fact, English is so full of "soothers" and "s" sounds that many non-native speakers thought it was totally devoid of emotional content ~ until they learned it!

Yeah, and Dutch was spoken in New York before English. And Native American before Dutch. And Caveman, before Native American.

Countries are established. Cultures are established within those boundaries. Some kind of common language is established. Such is the rise of nations.

50 Million years ago the only language that was spoken in the US was Ameoba. I'm not speaking Ameoba.

I know what country is established on this land is 2005. And that's all that is relevant.
