Yeah,I get that it's his rodeo clown name, but WHY did he use that name? Did a bull gore one of his testicles and now it whistles in the wind? (Inquiring minds want to know) :)

I don't know. I picked up Spanish from my husband's family almost by osmosis..I kind of just soaked it in by being around them a lot. I do think some people are just lucky and can pick up another language easier. I was only 16 when we met though. Plus I just basically "jumped in" and spoke it even though I knew it wasn't grammatically correct. Maybe Pedro is shy and afraid to say something wrong? I've noticed the older I get, it's harder to pick up new words. It also makes a difference if Pedro works and shops etc. where other people speak Spanish, and he doesn't really have to try (although he should.) My husband picked up English way faster than his brothers, because he lived with an English speaking wife, and he had to speak English at work.This plus all the English speaking TV shows I subjected him to: I'm not on P.TV for nothing ;-) His brothers married Spanish speaking wives, and lived in the city where they could do everything in Spanish all the time. I dragged my husband to the English speaking suburbs..for him it was sink or swim ;-) So, by Chantal picking up Spanish and switching to it with him when he doesn't understand something, I think it slows him learning English. (sorry so long, got carried away) Btw, YES I think everyone who comes here needs to learn English. I'm just saying why it's not as easy for some. :) PS my husband can now beat me in Scrabble, and that's no mean feat :-D

I love cheese, but is every single thing on those plates covered in cheese? Is that mac and cheese on a pizza, also?? Yuck! :-D -
Paul & Karine: These Condoms Ain't For Sexin'
ChiCricket replied to Drogo's topic in The Couples (Spoilers)
If I recall correctly, they're for him to pee into, so the penis loving river fish don't jump into his urethra, via his penis. 0_o https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candiru -
OMGosh, I saw this posted in the comment section of the post Derrick made soliciting more money. I have admit, it made me laugh. But actually, it's kind of sad that these charlatans don't care how well off the people are who are donating, as long as they DONATE. I would like to know just why people donate to "ministers" like this? Why isn't this against the law?! I know,I know. Free will and all that..but it just pisses me off. They're taking advange of people who can least afford it. :( /end rant

Wow, as of now he's raised a whole $125.00. I bet the first $100 was "sucker bait" from Derelict himself.

Big difference. He's family.

Danielle and Mohamed: The Original Mess
ChiCricket replied to Meredith Quill's topic in The Couples (Spoilers)
I know it's already been said, but they deserve one another. I feel bad for her innocent kids though. They didn't ask to have a 'mother' like Danielle. :( -
Ugh. Now you had to go and make me feel bad for Derelict. No friends? Not even fundy ones? Sad

Why does this not surprise me? >:-{

A couple of my grands have these. They're called "allergic shiners." http://www.drpaul.com/illnesses/allergy-signs-children.php I don't hold out much hope they'll take him to an allergist like my kids did, though. And in my mostly Hispanic family, the two grands who have them *are* the towheads

Grumble grumble..making a old lady (me) have to go to Facebook to see what you're talking about grumble grumble... PS and then go to Instagram to actually be able to share it with the rest of you.. grumble grumble :-D Pps (or was it Twitter? I'm too old to know the difference) ;-)

I'm going to hell in a handbasket because this made me laugh SO hard! (Sorry for whatever they did to make you so upset though) :/

It's always ok to call someone fat for some reason. I agree, there was a gazillion other things about him they could have used instead. (Yeah, I'm overweight, so it's personal)

Did she really say all that stuff?! That is NUTS. Wow Did she really say all that stuff?! That is NUTS. Wow

She's not a minor..she can do all of the above things, without their permission. But if she's living at home, they could tell her she can't keep doing this crap and still live there. (Tough love) She needs to be supporting herself if she wants to do this kind of stupid stuff.
