Maybe not off-topic. I know a Brasillian head nurse that looks similar to her that is moving here for good in March as a head nurse in a pediatric hospital. Starting pay is $73K when she finally sells off her stuff down there and walks through the door in CA ready to work. Passed the NCLEX exam in English at the top last November. Visa, no problem. Green card, no problem. Very feminine and work oriented with a few languages under her bra. 14 yrs experience. Smart and not imposing. Different career field than mine and lots to talk about and do together for twice a year the last few. And not Americanized (yet).

SO, I ask what did Mrs. Bill Clinton do that compares to a woman like that?

And not Americanized (yet).

Good luck to you & your friend. I hope she gets through her Americanization without being seduced by the liberal culture. Maybe you could get one of those TV remote gadgets that shuts off all nearby televisions...

Sounds like she is probably old enough and smart enough to resist, but changing cultures is hard.

And you've reminded me of a Hispanic nurse I knew in southern California who also resembled Diane Lane. (sigh)
