Random quote and unrelated photo of the week



You know, to live in Cuba we have only three alternatives, known as the three R's - robar, remar, or rezingarse." Robar is "to steal." Remar is "to row"-as in to take a boat to Florida. Rezingarse is a play on the word resignarse, "to resign oneself," but in Cuban slang zingar is "to fuck," so rezingarse means, literally, "to fuck yourself."

    Really this is just a trap to get you to talk about TV again.
