what about the few spanish people that live in Tulsa, Oklahoma?

i feel bad for those guys



so, what do you guys think? should immigrants have to pay for English lessons to adapt to society, or should it be payed by the government (in other words, YOU through taxes)...........



...........i think it's a good question, with tricky answers.

Well, there is an English fluency test that has to be passed in order to become a citizen, so that is a no-brainer.

A nation is defined by its borders, language, and culture. If we lose that, we are not a nation at all.
I know those are hard concepts for a lot of people to digest, but contrary to the self-sabatoging efforts of public education to convince our generation otherwise, it is true.

Sorry guys.

I'd appreciate it if you could kindly work this into your vocabulary there at sgu (orthonut here-and wherever else you go to school. Manpants should be a universal phrase, IMHO, like "MMM....doughnuts...MMMM" now back to your regularly scheduled stephew quote) thanks.
I think this is a great idea. I hereby resolve to use the term manpants in at least one sentence and two posts each day.

Another underused but very good phrase along those same lines:

"Got sand"

You know, as in that "he's got sand - brass - courage - grit - bravado - bravery". I heard it from someone talking about the apostle **** getting stoned outside of the city for sharing the gospel, coming to again, then walking back into the city to finish his sermon.

**** had 'sand'.

I like that. I shall use that term more often alternately with "manpants".

Or the phrase, 'sand in her vagina', which I believe was quoted from Eric Cartman .

But it doesn't have the same meaning. When used in a sentence,

"Why is Cartman's mom so angry today?"

"I don't know, I think she has sand in her vagina."

OK, that's just gross on a whole other level.

Obviously Baba learned a new word and has vowed to use it in a sentence.

I guess South Park is a little too left for the VMD crowd, but due to the popularity of the show, you should know that if you tell people that you have 'got sand', they're going to think you're talkin' bout your cooter.
