A charley horse, one of those sudden muscle cramps in the calf, woke me from a sound slumber the other night. I was sure it was induced by an especially grueling workout, and at the Y the next day I wanted to whine about it.
A lot of the people in this particular gym class speak only a little English, so I asked a bilingual fellow how to say "charley horse" in Spanish. "Carlos caballo," he said. "But I don't think anybody's gonna understand that!"
