Wow, did I come into this late. It’s really hard to find a slightly less strange transcript without ridiculous amounts of expeltives for a school based assignment. Thanks!

Thanks, Changusa, that’s really sweet of you to suggest. It actually is the conversation transcriptions that are the most time-consuming part of making a B @ E podcast. If people enjoy the podcast and don’t want to donate funds, they could always “donate” by writing a nice review on iTunes or whatever podcast directory sent them here. That would be really great too!

Lori, forgot to tell you that I didn’t catch the details of this tale (the informal practical usage) until I saw the transcript, I’m touched by the effort you put in the transcript. I think it’s worth some money donation (like $20, $30 a year ?) from everyone appreciate the great transcript to keep this podcast going a long way.

Thanks for the nice feedback, Changusa…I’m glad my toilet paper tales have managed to charm you in the end (no pun intended).

Hi Lori,

It’s a cool thing to have one of my favored English teachers broadcast from Sweden !! Three weeks ago when I first started listening to this episode I have no feeling, but today I listened again from my iPod I felt I liked it so much about the many informal, practical usage. – Chnagusa from Fremont, California

Akira, thank you so much for your nice feedback! I’m very happy you find the transcripts useful, because making the transcripts is the most difficult (i.e., time-consuming) part of creating a post. So it’s really good to know that it’s worth the time it takes.

I agree that learning with your funny anecdotes is always better than those “listen and repeat” tutorials.

Plus I’m always interested in learning more about the american slang.

Have fun in Mexico!

Thanks very much for your lovely feedback, Camilla. I must say that I’m equally impressed with your own interest and enthusiasm!

By the way, you can tell Ann that the question she asked today will be the star of an upcoming episode here (but I probably won’t have time to get it ready before I return from my trip).

Rock on,
Lori

Hi Lori
Just want to say that I’m so impressed of all the work and time you put down in sharing your energy, enthusiasm and knowledge of the English language. It’s so much easier, and funnier, to read a text with a little humor in it. The vocabulary in the end of the text is just great – keep that. It’s always a joy to come to your class… in other words… You rock – girl!! I hope you’ll have a wonderful stay in Mexico.

Take care!
