   Hello Bob,   
      
   >LL>Cajuns went from speaking French to speaking English and are on the   
   >LL>road to speaking Spanish...   
      
   >BB>>It may take a few more years, but I just don't see how we can stop   
   >BB>that if we continue the way we're going.   
      
   >LL>Habla espanol?   
      
   >BB>Si, pico.   
      
   >LL>We are becoming more and more like Mexico, with only two groups   
   >LL>of people - a handful of folks being the wealthy class and a huge   
   >LL>number of folks being the poverty class, with no middle class at   
   >LL>all.  With that in mind, maybe we should quit dreaming The American   
   >LL>Dream and start dreaming The Mexican Dream.  Or is that too horrible   
   >LL>a thought to even contemplate?   
      
   BB>I give it one more generation before we have the big split.   
   BB>Middle class is fading, but not quite gone yet. :)   
      
   I must admit to have miscalculated.  I had thought The End was supposed   
   to be on 12-21-2012, given the Mayan calendar.  However, I had failed to   
   account for the Transit of Venus, which is also included in the Mayan   
   calendar.  That date is 6-6-2012.  As such, we won't have to worry about   
   any big split.  So drink up, and be merry.  Like there is no tomorrow...
