regardless of where you live, don't you think maybe you should prune your comments board??

Well...I thought it was quite descriptive and image rich no matter where you wrote it!

ariel70, I don't know why warrior says that. What you have written is very evocative of Andalucia and there are plenty of English publications in Spain (mind you if you were doing it from illinois it would reveal an extremely good imagination - lol) Seriously what you write in general brings Andalucia back to my mind - the grubby playa etc.

ariel70, I live in a fancy highrise on the tony Upper East Side of Man-

hattan. What I said in my reply to you is that I doubt that you live in Spain as you state in your "About Me" summary -- and the truth is, you probably live in a place like Peoria, Illinois.

The point is, if you have been living in Spain for as many years as you say you have, and frequently write for Spanish publications, you should be quite proficient at speaking and reading Spanish, and writing in the language.

As for me, I learned to speak, read and write Spanish in the streets -- from years of hanging out with Mexican-American cholos y cholas, and Puerto Rican and Dominican homeboys and homegirls..

ariel70, esperaba esta repuesta de ti, porque no tengo duda que tu no vives
en Espana. Probablemente, vives en Peoria, Illinois.

ariel70, me estas molestando. En muy poco tiempo, voy a escribir un

articulo de ti que no va a ser muy bonito.

Te voy a partir el corazon.
