Cheech and Chong are doing a show in Brazil?
No, a show about smuggling. It's different than the last show - it's about Brazil instead of Peru.
I once went to Brazil. I figured it'd be easy, 'cause I'm fluent in Spanish.
No... No, only like 25% of 'em speak Spanish. The rest speak Portuguese with an accent and slang words. I couldn't fucking understand a thing.
I was there for like three days before I flew to Colombia or Venezuela. I forget which. I was pretty drunk for a while there.
Didn't your son live in Peru?
Yup. Me too, for a while. When I was doing my service, I was attached to the embassy as a guard at the Peruvian embassy.
It was my many stories that kinda swayed him to go there when offered the chance at a summer project while in college. That's where he met his wife and ended his college career. He does not intend to return to school. I'm okay with that. In his position, I'd not go to school either. Or I'd go to school and use to extract more money from my father! I quite liked academia.
