Chala
The Chala or "Coast" is one of the eight natural regions in Peru. It is formed by all the western lands that arise from sea level up to the height of 500 meters.
In this region, the flora includes vegetation that grows near the rivers, like the carob tree, the palo verde, salty grama grass, manglar or mangrove tree, the carrizo or giant reed and the Caña brava (ditch reed); and plants that grow in the hills, such as the Amancay or Peruvian daffodil (Hymenocallis amancaes), the wild tomato, the Mito or Peruvian papaya (Vasconcellea candicans), and the divi-divi (Caesalpinia spinosa).

Hmm. So this would also allow you to tell the "...throwin' away a perfectly good Nigger." joke without offense, since including blacks is shorthand to set up the scenario of dumb rednecks? Not sure the African-Americans I know would agree.

Do you spend a lot of time at war with your best friends? Do you spend your life at war with the people closest to you in your life?"

Hey Kwick, are you married?

Um except, asking a woman to do the dishes, or to cook a meal, doesn't deserve violence on the scale described.

Especially if the chick doesn't have a job.

Interestingly Wulf, I think the joke that you heard was:

"The man came home from a long hard day's work earning money for his family, and ordered his wife..."

And I agree, *that* joke isn't particularly funny. But interestingly, the real joke says nothing about jobs - why do you assume that the girlfriend isn't the one working and providing for the household as well as, or instead of the man?

If you're uncomfortable with women in such a role that would explain why you don't find the joke funny...

Heads should roll
