Did You Know Krrb is Multi-lingual? It's True. Just Check the Footer and Have Some Linguistic Fun!

Krrb was raised by English and French speaking parents whom loved their ridiculously cute hyper-local/mega-global classifieds with all their hearts. But as little Krrbie grew to maturity, he made friends that opened his world far beyond what his folks could've ever dreamed and his dialect reflected his worldliness. Soon, the strapping Krrb was speaking Spanish and studying up on German. Next up, following L. L. Zamenhof's great dream of Esperanto, young Krrb will be launching in Krrbish. Life is good. 

Well, my friends, the time has come; To raise the roof and have some fun; Throw away the work to be done; Let the music play on; (Play on, play on)

 

Peace,

Krrbonel
