Be warned though that you get a lot of junk emails. I had to unsubscribe after a few months as I was inundated. As soon as I unsubscribed though, they stopped so I would still recommend the site.

I love it - it is so clever how he gets it just right. It reminds me of my Grandad after a few glasses of his special punch 
Just so I feel I am contributing to the Spanish words rather than just having fun here are a few from me
correo electronico - e-mail
aprendiendo - learning
muy borracho - very drunk - thought it would go nicely with that clip

I started learning it with the linkword software and audio CDs. It's smart how they make you remember the words. Worth looking into for you.

Today's word is:
Cajones = drawers (as in "kitchen or cabinet drawers")
as opposed to
Cojones
Be very, very careful with this one
