 Well, I'm sure you've heard that Cinco de Mayo, a Mexican holiday, is much
more popular in the U.S. than in Mexico. Lots of beer and Mexican
food....... hmmm, could there be a connection? Oh yes, and the Cinco de
Mayo sales at appliance stores and used car lots.

I sat for four hours listening to Urdu poetry the other night,
understanding about every third word, so maybe 20 min. is not so much. Try
it.
