Sylvia: Do you know what it's like to live with someone who always puts themself first? Juan: Sometimes you just need to know your place, Sylvia. Addie Shawn: Now, Juan!
This Morning Juan Martinez an illegal alien was found shot to death in an alleyway in downtown Las Vegas. According to authorities he was shot with what looked to be some sort of golf gun.
When asked what a golf gun was, authorities shrugged their shoulders and said “We don’t know but it sure made a hole in Juan”.
Strange to say, I’m no math wonk and have had to personalize numbers in order work with them. I have internalized conceptions of a lot of numbers, related to all kinds of encounters with them over the years. Some of them have “colors.” It’s hard to explain. To math-inclined people, working with numbers must be a pleasurable game. To me, it’s a continuing story that counterpoints with details in my life.

Great comments – you are all Number Juan in my book. Except for maybe emptc12 – WHAT? As for me, I’ve never been a Juan – only a numero diez.

Many nice puns here, but I don’t get “Sylvia,” perhaps Toinette or Tuvia? Or Pili or Alaba or Kekona?

I guess if they do not work it out they will have to see Mr. Division the divorce attorney.
carlostercero over 11 years ago
shouldn’t it be “someone who always puts HIMSELF first…”?
