Not too late to learn a foreign language

Chris at the office has this joke.
He claims he knows every language, including Greek.
When you ask if he knows French, he says, "that's Greek to me!"
Chris actually understands good basic French, as I bombarded him with my family history in rapid fire French.
Ma mère, sa famille, vient du Canada, ils sont canadiens-français
The success of the new wor;d economy will be in part due to to people who both have business saavy and language skills. You can learn so much from a DVD or audio series every day during your commute.
I am getting quite confortable with Spanish< Russian and French in those lost moments during 15-minute drives. I also have added them to my iPod mixes, so, randomly, I hear a lesson intermixed with my Brahms and Pat Metheny.
I hope this is the right path to staying ahead!
