Maybe the problem was that tagline. You have a basic problem there. "La" and "Loca" do go together but "Credit" is screwing you up bad. "So what's new about that", you say. Well nothing, really but it isn't "Credit" in Spanish. Its Credito. In case you didn't know it, Spanish is the only language in the world where most words have a sexual gender. "A" indicates feminine gender and "O" indicates masculine gender. So you gotta change that tagline to "Livin El Credito Loco" if you want to have less problems. Of course, the Spanish even get messed up with that gender stuff from time to time. For instance. "Corre! Aye vienen La Policia!" Well, most police in Hispanic countries are masculine and almost none are feminine although a few may be hotas thereby raising some possible doubt about their actual gender. But when the cops are coming, nobody is going to worry much about what sex they are, now are they? Corre means its time to run. Those Mexican jails are no picnic to say the least. If you don't have relatives to bring you food all you are likely to get is a bowl of beans a day. Many of the jails down there don't even have cells, just high walls with guard towers. Men and women are all in there together and they don't even have toilets. Just a ditch running down one side of the compound and maybe wooden seats to sit on, maybe not. Anyway, a simple 0 may cure your problem, maybe not. LOL
DH was in jail in Russia a couple of years ago. It wasn't pretty either. Although you might be surprised at what $100 USD and a pack of American cigarettes will get you.
Some of the better Mexican jails have apartments for the well to do. If their crimes aren't too serious they can come and go as they please during the day and can have their own TV, Referigerator and all the feminine company they want from the general compound. They can order their meals brought in if they wish and almost live like kings. Pretty expensive though. The average person sure can't afford it.
Spanish is the only language in the world where most words have a sexual gender. How did you come up with that? What about Latin, Italian, German, French etc?
Count on the fact that Spanish is the only language in the world where words have specific gender. If I'm wrong on that then every high school and college language professor out there is also wrong.
Re: Re: ~ I'm Cold!! You LOCKED ME OUT!! Yep, you're wrong and if every highschool and college professor were teaching that they would have been fired. I'm german and every noun is either masculine, feminine or neutrum . Have you never heard of 'der', 'die' or 'das' (which is 'the' depending on the gender)? What about 'le' or 'la' in french (Again, used depending on noun being masculine or feminine)? Spanish is a latin based language, just like french or italian.
Sorry, I didn't see that others had already replied and caught this little error. I speak French and took some Italian in College so I know this for a fact.
