Ummm how about no. I'm a language major. I am all for everyone learning Spanish and french and what not in this country. In fact I think it should start when we are young. But a spanish anthem, no offense, we speak english. It's our main language. If you have been in America for 40 years and know no english, start learning. Any other country would find it rude for us to not learn the language of the country we lived in but America goes and babies any one who speaks a different language. Teach them English. Don't teach them in Spanish unless it's a Spanish class. I respect any one of a different culture and background but hey a great majority of the people in other countries speak english as a second language to their primary country's language. Do we see them singing their national anthems in english? No, because it's not the language of it's forefathers and because generally you can't get by in a foreign country unless you learn the language. Yes America was built on tons of people from different walks of life but really most of them were some sort of english speaking group minus the Dutch York. THomas Jefferson and George Washington, Lincoln would not sing our anthem in Spanish. I thank Bush for his wonderful, "I think the national anthem ought to be sung in English, and I think people who want to be a citizen of this country ought to learn English and they ought to learn to sing the national anthem in English." Thank you President Bush, if for nothing else I thank you I give you full credit for that. Ok done now. Feel better. Whew.

Rubber kills.
It's a bit long and educational, but so few people know this that I figured I should try to teach you all about it. Please read, it's a life or death situation.
Ever heard of latex? Well look around. Obviously it's those elastics that grandma uses to hold her check book together. Been to a mall lately? Notice the rubber balloons? How about your tires? The bottom of your shoes, sometimes your entire shoe? Check those pen for their cute rubber grips. Own an iron? Did it come with a nice comfortable rubber grib? Got a water bottle that came with the straw attached? Look where the straw is, see that little band around the underside where you put the straw, that would be latex. How about the lining in your undergarments? Yes ladies, your bras too. And well plenty of people know what rubbers are. Live in New England? Well they just upped the amount of latex they put in tar. I've even seen phones with rubber grips. Are humans really that clumsy that we need all this rubber?
