Thoughts on Bilingual Video

I believe that learning a 2nd or 3rd language is important, it keeps your memory working which helps fight off Alzheimer's . The shocking part of the video is when the speaker said that a language dies  every 14 days, that statistic is shocking to me. English is the global language, its too late to change that, but we shouldn't not have a standardize English test.

Famous Hispanic in History

My Spanish American report will be on Vernon Louis Gomez.


Lefty Gomez played on the New York Yankees for 13 years (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/g/gomezle01.shtml). His nickname was "Lefty" as he pitched left handed. He was inducted into the hall of fame for his amazing pitch streak and helping lead the Yankees to set a world series record. (http://baseballhall.org/hof/gomez-lefty)
