Hickory Snippet

Took my Honda Civic in for work at Hickory Honda.  While writing in the waiting room on my iPad - using their free Wi-fi - I noticed some of the other people in the room.  A group of three, apparently Hmongs, were speaking very quietly to each other and were not audible.  An elderly couple was speaking quietly to each other in German, a great burley man with a backward-facing ball cap, an athletic undershirt and flip-flops was talking with his little son in Spanish, and a very well-dressed man was curled up in a chair arguing with someone on his cellphone in Japanese. The TV was hopelessly mired in English.
