Se Hable Ingles

So I thought that while I'm laid up for the summer I could learn another languange in my spare time. So I purchased Rosetta Stone Spanish (Spain) Unit 1. And after only an hour with this remarkable program, I feel confident in my ability to go to Spain Right Now and say:

El avion es amarillo (the plane is yellow)

and it's fascinating response:

No, lo es. Es blanch ( No it isn't. It's white)

So bring on your white and yellow planes Spain!! I'm ready!! Also, I went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and the first half totally reminded me of Monkey Island. Especially the part with the island cannibals and the creepy Jamaican fortune teller in the swamp. I kept expecting them to defeat the evil sea baddies with a jug o'root beer.

Hmmmm, root beer.
