“¿Cómo fue su viaje a Washington?� Mr. Cardozo, 46, asked of the mayor’s trip to the nation’s capital.

Mr. Bloomberg, 66, quipped: “Si tú tienes tiempo para descansar, toma un avión.�

They said I couldn't play football I was too small / They say I couldn't play basketball I wasn't tall / They say I couldn't play baseball at all / And now everyday of my life I ball.

Interesting, as it was rather broadly known a few years ago in Puerto Rico that he had a, more than a political, relationship with Sila Calderón while and after she was governor.

Maybe he had trouble concentrating on her Spanish instruction?

Seems I remember her playing a role in getting the Puerto Rican vote out for Bloomberg in NY.

Awesome.

On a side note, Columbian Spanish is definitely one of the best to learn.
