Meet Benign girl

July 18, 2007

Hey Jeff, you’re not the only one who’s been to a country famous for knock-off’s.

There’s a saying here in Peru that Peruvians are expert copiers. Everywhere you go there are pirated CD’s, DVD’s, clothes, appliances, and the like. My favorite is this cheap imitation of a certain bottle blond we all know. She’s been around for a lot of years, as I understand. This is the “screen” from a toy cell phone that someone gave to my daughter. Tragically, they do now know what benign means, so the irony is lost on them. They wondered why I was laughing so hard. Enjoy the chuckle…
