Ain't this the truth! Back when flip phones had holsters that attached to your belt, I lost the phone out of the holster. I thought it was while riding in the back seat of my buddy's Albatros. Swore I had it when we flew but couldn't find it down in the bowels under the seat. He tells me, "Get in, we'll find it". We went up, went inverted and a pencil, pen, Bic lighter and a pair of sunglasses fell out but no phone. Found it in my car lodged under the driver's seat. Some old candy wrappers too.
That's some cold hard truth. My brother is the primary driver of one of the 2 cars we have and even after I'm made to clean out the garbage, you still get rock hard layers and gunk and the smell of a decomposing hobo.
That is exactly RIGHT.A Mexican was on television with British TV host Anne Diamond when he used the word "mañana" (pronounced “manyana”).
Diamond asked him to explain what it meant. He said that the term means: "Maybe the job will be done tomorrow, maybe the next day, maybe the day after that. Or perhaps next week, next month, next year. Who really cares?"
The host turned to a South African who was also on the show, and asked him if there was an equivalent term in his home language.
He replied: "In Africa, we do not have a word to describe that degree of urgency
