So, I have started getting quite a few texts and calls and messages regarding the title...
What does it mean?
What's with the "th"?
This is my attempt to explain it!

Much like English, Spanish speakers have different dialects and slang. For the most part, there is no difference in the Spanish spoken in Latin American countries and that in Spain. HOWEVER, in Spain, they do what is known to most people as the "lisp." When the letter "c" is found in the middle of word, the "c" loses its "s" sound and gets replaced with a "th" sound.
So, for my title... Barcelona. In Latin American countries, it would get pronounced like bar-SAY-lona; but, in Spain, it will be pronounced like bar-THAY-lona.

This was kind of the inspiration behind my title. The same Spanish, but different dialect.
