That's exactly right! They worked with me at Tam's. I didn't know at the time what language it was. They were in the break room, and I was headed that way. I stopped around the corner from them, listening and thinking, "That's not Spanish... That's not French... That's not Korean... That's not Italian... What the hell kinda langauge is that!?" Then I went and asked someone. That's when I found out they were from Brazil.

BONK?! Tangential, but oddly germane: Amy, recall the time in Northridge when you ran into a couple of Korean girls from Brasil, speaking fluent Portuguese? Am I remembering that tableau correctly?

He's a total California dude, and I remember him railing against people who couldn't pronounce his name once (while drunk): "But. Sun. Turn. Three ordinary words. Why can't people say them one after the other?" (Remember that, Amy? I think you were there.)
