"I'm married!"

Marash Girl (at the time married with four children) had just returned from several weeks in Guatemala, where everybody greets everybody that they meet on the streets, whether they are acquainted or not, with a hearty, "Buenas!" Having gotten into the habit, Marash Girl began to greet folks on the street, whether she knew them or not, with a hearty, "Good morning!" Never realizing that some folks might take offence, she continued the greeting until, one morning, a young man (much younger than Marash Girl), affronted by her greeting, replied, "I'm married!"
