I didn't know that!

Surfing with the TV remote tonight I dropped into the local Univision channel and was surprised to learn that I live in a Spanish speaking country. This with noticing how everybody working in and visiting local businesses from Best Buy to PGE spoke nothing but Spanish. Not an English word to be heard or a Gringo to be seen anywhere.

Even the school aged kids that joined mom and dad were speaking nothing but Spanish when dropping by the Portland General Electric office to pay the power bill. I wonder if that was cash mom had in the envelope she handed over just as I see them using when paying their monthly Comcast tab. Saving postal stamps and paper bank checks must be Green. So where is that PGE payment office? Who knows, someday my computer link might go south.

But then, Univision news went on to tell more of what was happening today in Mexico and Central America. Whoa, that was scary and Chavez of Venezuela was not the worst. Its seems that everybody wants to kill everybody else and it looked as they have the guns to do it.

The topper was news video from Mexico showing a huge crowd of little farm worker types attacking Police and destroying their cars as if it they were celebrating an NBA championship. The idiots didn't even know how to break a car window as their baseball bats and wooden clubs just bounced off.

Don't know what happened to the two gents wearing uniform-like white shirts that were bound and sitting in the back of a Police pickup, but I have this hunch they were Cops and aren't with us tonight.

So where was Zorro when they needed him? Not operating the Univision camera was he?
