Here is a fun tongue twister:  Whether the weather is warm, whether the weather is hot, we have to put up with the weather, whether we like it or not. 

Thought for the week:  Yesterday is a cancelled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have—so spend it wisely.
El ayer es un cheque cancelado; el mañana un pagaré; el presente es el único efectivo que tienes; úsalo con sabiduría. Trapeador: Aprovechar el tiempo, 7.
