So we can give you pickups, vodka, and speak bad Portuguese to you!

And I will bring the aged gold Cachaça Brazil, Sérgio! It would be a sin to make a Caipirinha with this stuff Image

Hey, thanks, but I'm just a regular guy, as they say.Image
Paul, pickups and vodka are gracefully accepted and much appreciated, however bad Portuguese is a different matter: with respect, my wife speaks about as much bad Portuguese as this man can stand hahaha!
Elys: the aged gold Cachaça Brazil? I'm game! Now that I'm somewhat off the beer wagon, so to speak, I need something else to brigthen my days...Image
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

Be afraid, Sergio...be very afraid!

There are few sights sadder than a youthful cachaceiro.

One of them is an aging cachaceiro who pisses on your shoes to say, "hello"...

Hey, don't talk about my great-grandfather like that!

No, seriously, he was a Baptist. All they do is **** their own shoes, not someone else's. So he didn't drink alcohol, ever, his whole life, but he still got senile and noticeably incontinent around 102 or so.

Barbara Billingsley (Mrs. June Cleaver from Leave It To Beaver) may have been able to speak Jive in the Airplane movie, but I sure can't.

We need a translator I think, to translate that San Francisonese into American English. Babelfish does not seem to have one - hmm...
