Hello friends!

[Tank]

Maybe its a cultural thing. Can you explain the wombat thing?

We are both wondering what it is all about.

We are not native English speakers.

It is a cultural thing, unique to The Magic Pudding (TMP)! He comes from Australia (which may explain a lot). Some forums are fortunate enough to attract some eccentric/peculiar/odd/daft members. HAF is very fortunate to have a few including TMP and Asmodean (he's the little grumpy lump of clay). You did exactly the right thing to ask as it can be very odd here indeed, don't expect to understand it all, I don't

What is your native language and where do you come from?

Well Im kinda weird.

Born in the USA.
Moved to Honduras 8 month old and returned to the US.
My first language is Spanish but I am bilingual.
Cant spell worth a crap in either.

Ill let my wife Answer herself.

Thank you for your welcoming! And thank you to the Magic Pudding for the wombats and to the Tank for the guinea pigs. What am I suppose to do with these? LOL
I am really excited in participating in this forum... as a brand new atheist, it is really frustrating not to be able to connect with other people because the only thing that comes out of their mouth is GOD, prayer and the expression: "be blessed".
Really, life is too short and I do not want to spend it in church....that's for sure.

Oh Tank!

I'm from Honduras and my first language is Spanish.

You can eat the big guinea pigs, the wombats must be given a place of honour in you home, and this honour should in no way be like the honour you give to a nice leg of lamb, steak, or fresh chicken.

I've just had a quick scan of the Wiki page on Honduras. Looks like a nice place to live if you have money and power but not otherwise. Is that a reasonable assessment?

Tank,

You might be right. But if you have money, you can be kidnapped and killed. If you don't have money you can still be killed. If you are middle class, you'll always be robbed or ultimately get killed too.

An interesting but not a particularly hopeful article. I would presume that things will get worse as anybody with the intelligence/capability to leave will do so. Thus leaving an underclass and an exploitative 'overclass', the former powerless to do anything the later with no motivation to change the status quo. I can see why you left.
