Merry Mary's Day?

Argentine stores love using English in their ads, sometimes to comic effect. Now, before I throw any proverbial stones, I'll admit that I say a lot of really stupid things in Spanish (the guy painting our house just had a good giggle when I called door handles "picapuertas" instead of "picaportes"). But I'm not pretentious about my mangled Spanish the way, say, Legacy is about peddling its polo, rugby and all-around anglophiliac clothing. So, I love Legacy's suggestion that we're really celebrating the day of the Ma of Christ here.

While I'm on the subject, I have to slip in my favorite local store name: Personality Store Man. Yes, Personality Store Man -- which has provided much glee to my subte rides with its ad campaigns -- can be found online at www.personalitystoreman.com.ar
