The Puerto Rican way: I recently co-hosted a 3-hour meeting where shocking info confirmed by multiple sources was laid out about animal abuses occurring in the West. Really bad stuff.

At the end, strategies were being discussed. One Puerto Rican man, an ex cop who seemed to volunteer himself for everything, welcomed by one of the higher ups, pointed out that we couldn't do anything immediately. We had to go really "slow". We could not tell anyone outside, and we had to wait until the "right time" to confront the suspected parties.

I said "Slow? You know I really hate to hear that word, especially here in Puerto Rico."

He responded that "Slow" wasn't really what he meant. It was some other word he was searching for in English. I kindly offered "methodical" as a suggestion. He didn't confirm, and never provided me with a replacement term.

So far things have been going "slow", the other Puerto Rican way.
