I can't believe we still haven't cosigned rent control to the flames. Thanks for the reminder. I hate Mondays.

Why did I misread item three as "Viceroy for Rent Control"?

Hotel owner in NM asks Hispanic employees to use "American" versions of their names. In NM, remember, where Spanish as an official state language and has been spoken for about 300 years longer than English.

"Mi nombre es Giovanni," said Juan.

Sounds like he's going to be short on staff pretty soon, NM. Even Messicans have dignity, at least when they're not sleeping.

The last chick I went out with from NM said she knew no Spanish. Thought that was strange. She did know Arabic, which I discovered how strange that was some time later.

Kind of like the Indian call centers where they answer the phone as "Steve" and "Mary".
