A TGIF PC news item -- I can't handle any more this week.... I'm waiting for the White House holiday weekend Friday night 'dump'!

A junior high school teacher teaching Spanish in a Bronx Public School was fired.... her offense -- in her Spanish class -- when instructing the class on how to say the basic colors, ---  she uttered the word 'NEGRO"....  and a black student complained.

Yessir .. she did that --

I just Googled three 'Spanish to English' translation sites.  I asked each of them to translate the English word 'Black' into it's Spanish equivalent....   DUH!  Three times it told me 'Negro'!

Perhaps we should fire Google, or all those nasty sites for saying the Negro word....

Lord luv a duck -- what are we coming to?

Oh, sit down for this.... the teacher - 65 year old Petrona Smith, is a native of the West Indies - and black.   More than that - the school she was teaching in is bi-lingual... 

Have a nice weekend......
