Welcome Chaki,
As you would like us to talk to you as if we've known you for years, may I suggest the following.
As this is a message board, and not a chat service, you may want to write as such, without the chat abbreviations, like "ur" for "your", or "u've" for "you've", as many of the readers will not understand you.
As well, a major portion of the members do not speak Spanish, so they will not understand, when you mix it into your sentences.
Perhaps, you would care to tell us more about yourself.

La chaki, I totally understand when you call michigan a dumb state. I had lived near detroit for 5 months and worked in lake orion GM plant many years ago. Boy o boy, I had never seen so many dumb folks in my whole life in one place. people would get married when they are 23 yrs old (guys) and then work, go to grocery store and back home to sleep. This seems to be their routine. I was new there so I needed direction to certain places. I, quickly, realized that no one knew anything about anything. I would ask where this road goes to or how can I get to point B from point A, I would get the answer "Oh I always go this way, so I can't tell you where this road goes to". I mean they couldn't even guess at anything. After 5 months, I think I knew more about the city than the natives.

AZB you crack me up sometimes.
With all the recent threads that have been appearing lately your use of the phrase, "people would get married when they are 23 yrs old (guys) and then work, go to grocery store and back home to sleep. This seems to be their routine", in an attempt to indicate how "dumb" people are in Michigan is hilarious.
I am assuming we can equate the word 'routine' to 'culture' in a broad sense and as this is a Dominican message board ....................... I'm sorry I just felt that it was appropriate to mention this.
Rick
Back on topic. Which is what???????

It was simply to indicate that most lived a very simple boring life. Remember, I had moved there from NYC so it was quite a surprise for me to see the "tigaraje" missing in the young folks. This was in 1990.

This is a classic modern spanglish paragragh, early High school ?? Anyone?? Back to the question,
La chaki, Aproximately a week ago someone in Grand Rapids was asking for Dominicans in the area. Can't remember exactly where. Do a search, maybe is someone close to you.

That would be in the "Dominicans Abroad" forum. The first forum in the list.

guillen
and its not a paragraph its one sentence, do u see four or more sentences? remember paragraphs consist of four or more sentences, with the topic sentence, which is indented, body sentences, and the last one for the conclusion. dont mean to sound like a smart ass but u did before.
