Immerse yourself in Spanish
September 18th, 2008 By Noah MatthewsI've just returned from my 90-minute commute on the parking lot known as the 405 Freeway. If traffic wasn't exactly flying, time was and instead of hearing about how bad traffic was on my car radio, I was learning a language we're all going to have to learn if demographic experts are right. Even now, pretty much everything (excluding this column) is in both English and Spanish. So, as I do every year about this time, I'm brushing up on my Spanish.
