Well, I got half of it right.  Out here, if you say a couple of Spanish 
words, you can usually stop people from talking behind your back.  Spanish is 
so commonplace, that no-one can ever be sure who understands or doesn't.  
Undalay , undaly (I don't know if I spelled it right), that's what you say if 
you need for someone to hurry up or work faster, or hurry up and get in the 
truck .......bobford
