If you're not familiar with her biography, please look into it; you may agree. I first read her works many, many years ago, I even dabbled in trying to read them in their original Spanish versions to boost my learning of the language (it didn’t help me much, lol), so I was already aware of her writing before I heard the replay of the interview, it’s just that I had not known anything about her life.

It was so easy and enjoyable that I think I should get Jeff Bezos a Christmas present to show my appreciation. I'm thinking a pair of fuzzy dice for his rocket ship. Cheers!
I just seen this before an episode of Gilligan's Island. Gilligan's Island was made in the '60s.It includes outdated language and cultural stereotypes.

When one of those annoying "too cheery in the morning" types wishes me "good morning!", my standard response is to growl "what's good about it?"Yes, we have no mañanas, we have no mañanas today.

I really enjoyed running on the teams and getting to know teammates as friends.One year in high school, the city newspaper took pictures of some of us on the team.
Many people told me they thought it was funny that all the guys in the picture had that "Patented Sportsmen Frown," except me - - I had a broad, happy smile.Heck, I loved being on the track teams. I wasn't going to frown for a picture. :) less

(((Randy D asked me to give him a ride here to the business district in my car, which I did, and when we got to this place called The Tilde Mercantile Bank, he suddenly hopped out of the car telling me I should circle the block once and then wait for him with the engine running just past the exit doors, and he quickly went inside carrying a large duffel bag. This is beginning to seem kind of weird and fishy . . . )))

Where am I going with all this!?During the Vietnam War era (draft era to be precise) blacks of military age made up 13.5 percent of the total population, but only 9.7 percent of the Vietnam era military forces were black. 88.4 percent of the men who actually served in Vietnam were white. 10.6 percent of the men who actually served in Vietnam were black. 86.3 percent of the men who died in Vietnam were white. 12.5 percent of the men who died in Vietnam were black. 86.8 percent of the men who were killed in actual battle were white. 12.1 percent of the men who were killed in actual battle were black. In sum, while the percentage of blacks of military age was 13.5 percent of the population, they accounted for 12.1percent of the deaths in Vietnam. less
