Meet El Presidente

I am sorry for not blogging yesterday, but I am having computer issues and was unable to connect to the Internet. Therefore, I am double-blogging today.

When I arrived home from my Easter dinner at my Mom's yesterday I brewed some coffee, got comfy on my sofa and began to flick through the channels with my remote. I stopped on the Spanish channel and watched a few minutes of a 1960's-esque biblical film. It struck me funny to watch the actors playing Jesus Christ and Pontious Pilate speaking Spanish. And then I thought to myself, how ridiculous is it compared to them speaking English in American films? I mean, no one was speaking Modern English then, least of all anyone in Jerusalem. Then I just giggled at my own stupidity.

My title is from the song Meet El Presidente.
