I'm traveling with a coworker originally from Mexico. We're at SJC when a
guy and his Mexican girlfriend sit next to him. The guy started speaking
in Spanish. He said he knew some French and German. He mentioned he
likes flying places, renting a car, and driving. I had to ask. "Uh,
what's your name?" It wasn't Carl. :)

That much is obvious. If it had been Cal-El, your co-worker would have
alternated between fits of hysterical laughter and "Como? No entiendo
lo que dice este pinche gringo!"

Or had a brain aneurism trying to comprehend the situation..
