I'm notorious for messing with people via photoshop.. be forewarned..LOL!.. you should see the thread I did, giving a good mate of mine from MAMA (Monadnock Area MINI Association) a hard time.. poor guy.. I think he's still suffering from that one..LOL! (not really, he's cool.. we're always bustin each others' juevos..)...

I'll post the thread as soon as MINI2's back up.. it's good for a chuckle anyways..

huevos are eggs. juevos is not a word as far as i know. [although it very possibly could be.. ] and cahones is the word you want

okay.. you evidently haven't grown up in a predominantly latin area, like I did..LOL! ..

juevos (pronounced huevos) do indeed mean eggs, a common "Spanglish" term for *********.. I grew up in Miami and Orlando.. it's a bad habit, I can't help it..*shrug*

i know what you meant.lol.. and i know it's slang for b*lls, same same, what not.. but the actual spelling for eggs is huevos, with an h.. maybe juevos is some Spanglish alternate version or something. :D

i still think cahones is more fun.lol.

i know many rude things one can say en Español hopefully i won't need that in Costa Rica this summer!

ahhhh.. the American school system..LOL!.. I hope they weren't teaching your Spanish teacher well.. Pretty much everything in Espanol that is pronounced with a "H" sound uses the letter "J" and anything with a "Y" is pronounced with a "J" ...

actually ... now that I think of it.. I may stand corrected on this one.. you may be correct.. sort of.. Juevos is more of a slang thing (mexican and Puerto Rican).. I'm just used to seeing it spelled that way (and no.. not "Juevos Rancheros"..LOL!) but I think I vaguely remember that being something I always messed up in "Spanish" class...

I gotta look this up now.. damn! (I hate being wrong, but I'll admit it when i am.. once.. that's it.. then I'll deny ever being wrong again! LMFAO!)..

back in a jiffy..

noo.. i'll argue with a brick wall.. end the cycle! LOL


generally,h's are silent at the beginning of a word, but not necessarily in the middle of a word, j's are pronounced like an h and i's are pronounced like e's and e's are sometimes pronounced like a's & ll=y.

ok. i'm stopping. srsly.i'm sucha stickler!

haha.. i think we're scaring everyone off. or maybe just i am.

Being from Los Angeles, Spanglish is normal slang for us. It is huevos and cojones....interchangeable meanings, too.

I think we need to organize a Dragon breakfast.....eat some big ol' Dragon huevos!

Thursday night sometime after the welcome dinner is over - at the Fontana Rec Center - or close by.

Doesn't it suck that you are staying around a bunch of couples?

But at the movie, won't you be quietly enjoying it? Isn't that NOT the place to chat and carry on?

actually.. what we SHOULD do is this..

We need to come up with a little "identifier" so we know who is in the click.. something visual like a specific sticker on our back window or something.. just an idea..
