5478. What we need are counters in Europe, Asia, Australia, and Africa to count round the clock. Things get mighty slow during the western hemisphere nighttime.

5489. We've got nothing better to do, so why should you get off so easily? Bom dia, Sara.

5490. You don't need to bribe me with a portuguese greeting, Chris. Besides, it's Boa tarde already. :D

5491. Oops! Considering "bom dia" is about 10% of my Portuguese repertoire I figured I'd better make use of it.

5494. Onde esta toilets? O restaurante esta fechado. Acetam carto credito? Nao falo portugese.

I took a crash self-study when I went to Mozambique a few years ago, and I continued to try to learn when I came back because there was talk of me returning on a regular basis. That never happened, and I've already forgotten most of what I learned (as you can probably tell :)).

5496. Although the Lonely Planet phrase book did have a section on dating and "intimate situations" I never had a chance to use it (I was happily married at the time and had no desire to).

5500. Yeah, things like "Let's go back to my room," "don't touch me there," all the necessities. The book's at home or I'd get precise examples.

And probably slapped.
