Sonia from the Block

Lynn, I spent most of my four months in Spanish-language school in Cuernavaca bumming around beautiful Mexico, but I did learn a little Spanish along the way, and one of my favorite phrases – no, not that one, and I have no idea if any actual Spanish-speaking person ever says this – was Ella se crea la muy muy. (Well doesn't she think she's the berries.) What Sonia in the tank says to me is that ella no se crea...aw please, it's been forever, but you know what I mean: Obama's pick for the Supreme Court does not seem particularly smitten with herself, and on the contrary comes across like the sort of person who -- yes, here it comes, you would not hate to be seated next to at the ballgame, or even have a (hotdog and a) beer with. Unless it's that they're still leaning on that Yankees thing: Hey, guys, she can talk baseball and everything!
