28 Jan 08 Probably

Yesterday afternoon we joined the chaos that is Costco on a Sunday afternoon.

Surrounded in the sea of people, mashed into the mess was a little girl.

She was about five or 6 years old, a Hispanic girl, speaking quite fluently in Spanish to her parents. 

In between speaking to her parents she was practicing her English.

Obviously a student of the Al Pacino Primer, she kept saying over and over and over again:

Are you kidding me?  You’re crazy!

Are you kidding me?  You’re crazy!

Are you kidding me?  You’re crazy!

Costco on a Sunday afternoon?  She’s probably right.

   i had a german friend who learned all his english from american music…it made for very interesting conversations.

   are you sure she didn’t pick that up from the parking lot? sounds like a parroting of me yelling at the top of my lungs during my foray of any costco parking lot.

   I’ve found there simply isn’t a good time to go to Costco!

   Too funny. I would love to have been there, for more than one reason, of course.
