Lost and other wars

In language there are wars lost or that we can take for granted, and not a few! It's not about giving up, it's about realizing and accepting that that word has a new meaning.

One of them is the word “challenge.” In its origin, until recently, it was known how the yawning or ear spoke. Out of vanity, out of pride... About what he did, seeming more than he was or could be, “he has launched a challenge or “it has more of a challenge than it really does,” we used to say. They are already politicians, sportsmen, businessmen, educators… They are all clearly indicating their “challenges” to us. The more detail we give, the clearer the “challenge” is.

The other thing is, you're suddenly wrong and you're like the one who says. The chances and days of slips are all, as humor has a lot to say. However, the errors that are repeated must be corrected, because repeating what has been said wrong leads to the “ignorant” listener believing that he is right. For example, there have been heavy rains and earthquakes, which has caused “a house to come down…”. And like me, day after day, when the house goes up, but no, it doesn't go up. Because it has not come down, it has fallen or taken it to a pit! A leap of snow like a mountaineer; take it in front, but don't take it in front!

Once there were two men, at the beginning of the hill, looking at the platoon of cyclists, and there passed the son of one of them, the last one.

The other said to his partner: Iño! Your son does not have a beautiful day, he goes with everyone in front…”. The father of the last one who was about to leave replied: “Not with everyone in front, with everyone in front. What a season!”

On the same subject, we know that the areas where the roads are crossed by car are dangerous, but, on many occasions, listening to what the radio says, it seems that on the roads the cars go ahead of the train at full speed: “The train has taken a car ahead.” Fortunately, if it has always been taken in front of it, it will not have been touched by the train!

And the feeding of the next train stop. Last year, some experts in the Mediterranean Diet looked at the oil and water used to manage food, in addition to food, and advised us to take four glasses a day. Imagine they're made of glass. Four! And if they were metal, I don't want to think! We who had grown up in the farmhouse drank cow's milk, had we drank cow's milk...

And on an uninterrupted string: enter, go up, go out -- can you do something else?
