An Englishman went to Spain on a fishing trip. He hired a Spanish
guide to help him find the best fishing spots. Since the Englishman
was learning Spanish, he asked the guide to speak to him in
Spanish and to correct any usage mistakes.
So, as they were hiking on a mountain trail, a very large, purple
and blue fly crossed their path. The Englishmen pointed at the
insect with his fishing rod, and said, "Mira el mosca!"
The guide, sensing a teaching opportunity, replied, "No, senor,
'LA mosca'...'LA', es feminina."
The Englishman looked at him, then back at the fly, and said,
"Good heavens...you must have incredibly good eyesight."
"I have abandoned responsibility and have embraced frivolity"
