Vanishingly interesting article today from the Washington Post. I hope you find it stimulating!
Almost time for the new semester. Check my updated homepage for more info.
Also may I direct your attention to recent class pages I did for Yuntech's winter camp? I may? Thank you. Here's one for the TV Commercials class (full of bunly and nostalgic goodness) and another for the Storytelling and Songs class.
Working as hard as possible through a wall of mucus . . . I mean . . . I’ve got a cold and I still have to work on these technical edits for colleagues of . . . (layers of layers). Not easy work. Especially as since it’s hard to breathe it’s hard to concentrate too ‘cos it’s hard to sleep so that’s probably why I got the order wrong just now. Well, I think I’d better get back to it. . .
Word!
No, no, no! Wrong!!
Peace.

Now may not be the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country, because the slick brown fox jumped over some lazy mutton. Marvy poo, non? Take action and put it away.
Is nothing scared?
Even better than a Monthly Python game at wasting time is StumbleUpon. More fun, too!
Why, aorta. . .
If you understand this post, clap your hand.
I taught a mini class on the KK Phonetic alphabet that is commonly used in Taiwan. I have used an online service (or really a combination of several) to post a presentation, complete with audio (some Chinese included) on the material, and I will also post some exercises and their answers. Check it out!

Greetings, fellow Earthicans! Aroo!
I have found a unique site that allows you to arrange for rice to be donated to the UN; it is then given to areas that need food for starving people, and, presumably, their pets. It takes the form of a vocabulary exercise where you try to pick out the synonym for the featured word. I have provided so far a couple of bowls of food for somebody, I guess. I'm glad to help and I bet you'll enjoy the feeling as well. The quiz matches itself to your evident vocabulary level, setting itself at a suitable difficulty based on the words you can and cannot match. I assume it's on the level, and even if not it could only waste time, as there is no signup or other material to connect you to the site. I'm offering my students bonus points for participating.
Also, I have started a new blog that will focus on discussions of voice actors and relating my own voiceover news, in hopes that I'll actually get some more. It's here:
Furthermore, book 1 of my revision (with my suggested title) of the textbook First Class Service: English for the Tourism and Hospitality Industry 1 will be coming out on Oct. 26th, with the second book emerging shortly afterwards.
There's a tale to tell with the recording last Friday of the first book's 2 CDs, along with darling daughter Coral, but I want to report it first to my family. It went well and I was delighted. I want to be a professional voice actor (surprised?). I may have a chance (Surprised??).
Best to all organisms!
