Likewise.

I thought she was one of those imported English teachers?  I knew a couple guys who did that.  Basically what you do when you have no other interests or qualifications than the language you were born with.

[zeebo]

It's the real Darren from Oregon.   So funny.  What a weird thing trying to prove to everyone who you are!

I never doubted, but I'm still not convinced you're really an ostrich thief.

Hmm. Sounds perfect for me. Do you have to speak English good?

[K_Dubb]

Not really; they're concerned more with speaking it idiomatically.  From what I remember, the "lessons" are mostly one-on-one or small-group conversations.  I've always kept the idea in my back pocket in case things hit the fan.

In practical terms it's an easy way to escape.  Probably not coincidentally, both of the guys I knew were younger gay men who grew up kind of rural and were eager to strike out on their own.

FIFY

That sounds like a story that should be told.  I hope they write it.

I thought about doing it at one point myself but missed the boat.  I'd heard it once described as 'the last refuge of the rascal', which appealed to me.

Would make good reading, blending a touching coming-of-age narrative with the humorous potential of culture shock.  I wonder if it's been done.

Come to think of it, Michelle could probably write a similar story, but for some reason I'm not interested.

Aha a squirrel with a checkered past!  A roguish rodent.

Thank you brig.
Spec Sheet is right up my alley.
See you there.

Me either.
Pictures of your ostrich loot, or else you're just pulling our drumstick.   

[TigerLily]

Me either. neither

LOL. And you are absolutely correct.
Thank you Sweet Sister Tiger. 

[GravitySucks]

FIFY. Praticing Practicing for my new job

FIFY. Guess you have to take me with you.

[21st Century Man]

Hmm. Sounds perfect for me. Do you have to speak English good well?

FIFY.  I'm also practicing for my new job.

[TigerLily]

FIFY. Guess you have to take me with you.

Guess so. Me and you wild in Japan

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

It's amazing how a persons' eyes sometimes fill in the missing letters. I didn't even catch that.

There, much better.

I'm guessing one of those three camera shoots Hoagland raves about. You do know this was all his idea?

I'm taking language lessons with my own Japanese interpreter

[Sandra Kristen]

You can't teach in Japan unless you have a college degree just an FYI.

Also 50/50 if I will be here tonight or if I will skip. Michelle as a guest is certainly an argument in favor of skipping plus I'm in a pretty blah mood.
