Lesson Suggestion

There are a number of good questions below about the use of the preterite vs the imperfect.  There is some confusion about the speaker choosing to bend the rules in order to express an action in a certain way.  This is a very useful topic and might be a good lesson of its own, "When the speaker bends the rules for a specific reason".
