My work asked me if I wanted to go to Rio to help interview a witness. It would only be for 2 days, and its right in the middle of my reading week for finals, but I figure 18 hours on a plane is as good a place to study as any - and its free.

    And if they pretend not to understand you, just grab them by the shoulders and give them a good shake.

    I have heard American torists do this many times. When I lived in Italy this guy at a table next to me was doing it to a waiter and the waiter comes out in a perfect American accent and says "just becuase you add a vowel doesn't mean you are speaking Italian."

    Sadly, this is for real.

    Just say you got robbed on the way back to the airport and missed your return flight. Tell them you have to file a police report and you need a replacement passport so it will be at least a week before you can get back to the office. Then you will have plenty of time to dig...

    Guess you couldn't just stay in NYC and interview him via tele-conference......

    I like mixing up my accents based on sweeping generalizations...when I go to a Mexican restaurant I use a bad Italian accent, when ordering Chinese food, I use a bad Spanish accent...and when I order Italian food I use a bad Sean Connery accent.

  • My work asked me if I wanted to go to Rio to help interview a witness. It would only be for 2 days, and its right in the middle of my reading week for finals, but I figure 18 hours on a plane is as good a place to study as any - and its free.

    thanks for sharing this thread. it really has completed my day.

    Been down there yet Chan? I know a like you has it on the itinerary at some point...

    If you end up with an afternoon, your best bet is to hit Tracks in Gavea and Baby Discos in Copacabana. Both of these shops are more expensive. But you know, time is money.

    as a kid/ teen this was one of my biggest pet peeves about going places with my parents.

    You'd be surprised how often you tell someone the person they are trying to talk with is deaf and thier quick fix solution is to talk louder.
