Hi there Aecio.
How is sin level in Brazil?
Here is minus 0.
How was your Easter?
I am in between of listening to Mozart, comment wars on YouTube and watching hangouts of people I follow.
Thanks.
Hi Dan. Easter was great, at home, peace and love. Sin level in Brazil is always zero. Come and check it out. Best regards.

Hi guys.
Unbelievable! I am watching this short video where the level of stupidity
is full nova explosion.
Don’t get me wrong, I can be stupid too at times and I have demonstrated
here too, but these people beat me hands down.
In the video a black female employee at a school, somewhere in the US, quasi assaults a white dude because of his hairstyle accusing him of “cultural appropriation”.
Thanks
I was reading California is going to rise the minimum wage to 15 an hour by
2022.
I don’t not whether that’s good for the economy or not. I am not going to comment on that.
I just wanted to say that id what I get here after 29 years I have been working.
I am not complaining. I understand probably in CA the cost of living is more
expensive.
Thanks
Hello
Thank you Jeff and Lucy for the podcasts.
I am looking forward to listening to the podcast related to allergies because my wife is coeliac and I hope learning a
lot of vocabulary linked to food/skin allergies. When I travel abroad it is very complicated to explain other people
that my wife can’t eat gluten because questions come immediately, what is gluten? I answer gluten is the protein
of the wheat, and the next answer is, what? what? At the end, I order a salad for my wife and she gets angry with me!
Thanks again
