I took 2 years of Russian in college. I sucked at it.
and Russian sucks.
You're going to have to learn SPANISH when obama opens the border
Easy to pick up languages when you are a kid but I doubt I could get very far these days. My mother was French and I lived on the left coast when i first came to the US, so Spanish was a necessity.
Talking with neighbors while growing up accounts for the others. I could probably say "can I hunt baboons here?" in more languages than I can recall.
