Updated: January 29, 2026

Man with a college degree returning from Spain, not disagreeable sort, talks Spanish with that fat man who's an Argentinian. Tinian? Tinish, perhaps. All the same. In other words Tin. Nobody at the table knows I speak English or am American. Hell, that's a good one on nobody. That's a pretty fat kind of a joke on nobody. Think I'm French.
