Wherever There Is Injustice, You Will Find Us...

Last Friday, I watched the Three Amigos for the first time. The movie was quite good, just the kind of humor I was looking for. Here's part of one of my favorite scenes:

Jefe: I have put many beautiful piñatas in the store room, each of them filled with little surprises.

El Guapo: Many piñatas?

Jefe: Oh yes, many!

El Guapo: Would you say I have a plethora of piñatas?

Jefe: A what?

El Guapo: A plethora.

Jefe: Oh yes. You have a plethora.

El Guapo: Jefe, what is a plethora?

Jefe: Why, Guapo?

El Guapo: Well, you told me I have a plethora. And I just would like to know if you know what a plethora is. I would not like to think that a person would tell someone he has a plethora and find out that that person has no idea what it means to have a plethora.

Jefe: Forgive me, Guapo. I know that I, Jefe, do not have your superior intellect and education.
