BREAKING: Mexico approves $15 pair of heavy duty wire cutters

Fences are soooo ineffective when no one is there to see you cutting through it.

1. How do you say in Spanish "Senor Bush, tear down that fence?"

8. I think Arbusto actually means shrub.

That's why Molly Ivins calls DimSon "Shrub." DimSon named his former (failed) business Arbusto.

11. Perhaps, one of our DU Espanol speakers could confirm that.

I took four years of Espanol but that was years ago and I've forgotten a lot.

10. How do you make the upside down exclamation point and other characters?
Just curious. Do you have a special keyboard?

5. It's the Saudi $3.98 boxcutters I'm worried about
Those things can cause so, so much damage.

6. Made in China? Guatamala? Indonesia?
Or, will the immigrants "steal" the wire-cutter manufacturing jobs?
