I just think it's funny how people pick and choose which words they're going to pronounce with a foreign accent. The same people who say noo-tella will say 'erbs, "because it's french", (which it's not) and pronounce Huebner as hee-bner instead of hoobner "because it's German" but then they go ahead and say Guadalupe as guad-a-loop and leave off the eh. You'd think, this being a Mexican town, that's the one they'd get right..... Yep, I’ll concede to Nootella.

My friend has relatives that are friends with margaret and goth whitlam the ex prime minister, and has interesting stories about his relatives overseas trips. Anyway, hope things are going well. how is the weather and the news regading lindsay lohan? Hi sarah,
