[I]Uno. Dos. Tres.[/I] Don?t ask. I just had a [B][COLOR="RoyalBlue"]flashback [/COLOR][/B]to my days as a little 9th grade Spanish student. No, I am not of Spanish decent. I am the little American kiddo in class attempting to say ?Yo quiero?? without sounding completely incompetent. Apparently, I did okay; but talk to me in Spanish today and I might know two words that come out of your mouth. [I]Maybe. [/I] I spent two years of high school and one year of middle school ...
