Stories lie

  1. That’s an interesting song. I can’t place what language she’s speaking besides English. I thought maybe Spanish at first but that’s not it. I’ve been listening to a lot of world music lately; can’t keep me down on the farm! :-p

    I do not know the answer to the riddle. As the Klingon in the video game says to me when I lose, YOU FAILED! meaning i did. Sowwy!

    This week’s word list at my blog is a fail, speaking of. I am the only one who did it so far. 😦 hint hint 😉

    1. It’s Brazilian Portuguese. I, of course, don’t understand it either :-). Though I realised after a while it wasn’t Spanish.

      Thanks for dropping by as ever. I’ll check out your list soon 🙂
