apparently, there is a predicted earthquake for tuesday at night.... california is sort of known by many to have earthquakes (even some folks here in peru had heard about earthquakes in california and thought they happened all the time)... anyway, so even in california we don't have any sort of predictions that i'm aware of...
seems to be one here however and people seem to think i'm weird for not understanding how this can be predicted so precisely...
so.. we'll see.. earthquake tuesday night....
on another topic.. apparently there are other folks who are also getting a bit annoyed with the 'automatic assumption' thing.. the automatic assumption that all asians are chinitos and all white people are gringos... the term gringo is pretty much for folks from the U.S... my understanding is that it had something to do with the U.S. army outfit and i think it started in Mexico, where they would yell out "green go (home)!"... anyway, my non-US friends seem to get as annoyed about being called a gringo as i do about being called chinita....
