In reply to nicky. I had no idea. Crazy. Looking back at the production, there is some cred. Help me with humor.

In reply to Mark R.. In fact Vicente Fox was president of Mexico, the first opposition president in living memory. I'm not 100% sure, but I think he passed quite a bit of legislation. He must have referred to the present, Trump's regime. Brilliant indeed!

In reply to Mark R.. Yeah, I spent a lot of time laughing out loud too. The media get a lot if good quotes from him re Mexico including, "We're not paying for that fu€king wall," which, considering he's the former president of Mexico is gold.

That Vincent Fox dude had me rolling. “I am not president and I live in another country and I’ve passed as much legislation as you-zero” LOL!

The Bard quote must be the voice of Prospero.

In reply to Heather Hastie. Fluent in Spanish? I guess Costa Rica would suit you better than Iceland :)

In reply to ratabago.

I’ve done a few of these on-line quizzes – apparently my Spanish is fluent (I guessed all my answers from high school French), I’m a good Christian, and my manners are Japanese. Generally, either I don’t know myself very well at all, or they’re very wrong!

Well, I did the test. For 8 out of the 9 questions I wanted to choose the nonexistent “None of the Above”. Still, I got France, which might just be tolerable.

Following after nicky I tried the mental age quiz, and got 34. Seems my spirit flower is the orchid, which would have been near enough if they had chosen an Australian terrestrial orchid. Seems my soul is mysterious and mystifying, and I have extra-sensory insight.

This is really starting to damage my faith in on-line quizzes. I haz a sad:(.

In reply to nicky. I'd be too scared to take a test on my mental age! I wouldn't like the result however it came out!

In reply to nicky. And my mental age is 21, I guess that is not a compliment. Or -more probably- these tests are nonsensical.

In reply to nicky. Ha ha! Well, at least one of your kids would be pleased to join you!
