While at a Super Bowl party last night, I had to use my super-speech-language communication skills. The host of the party had invited a co-worker who had just moved here from Brazil. He was Japanese-Brazilian and spoke very little English. I do not speak Japanese or Portuguese. We had a lively discussion nonetheless as he was able to understand my broken Spanish, augmented by lavish gesture. We were actually able to hold a discussion about world religion and politics.
Who says a football party can't be educational?
