I think I like Cantonese better...

So another day of sleeping in.  Not much going on.  I went to Chinese class today.  Learned a few words and some new characters.  However, it's not sticking.  Mainly because the textbook isn't for English speaking people learning Chinese.  I really want an English teacher to tell me how to get the sounds right because the teacher can't tell me what I'm doing wrong and I can't explain to her what I want.  The only good news...I'm getting a feeling for what the sounds are like :)

Since I slept in so late, I didn't see much TV.  Some audio commentary for the second episode of Alias Season One.  Some of those great scenes took a lot of work and I love how the producers and directors are like cracking jokes every five minutes on how hard the shoots were.  "Victor's hair is grayer"  *giggles* They are the best.  I did manage to see "Grease: You're The One That I Want" and Rob Marshall was there.  He's the big brother to the lady choreographing Grease...I always wondered if there was a connection.  The contestants left are really good and it's sad...the ones who look the best don't perform the best and vice versa.  There was a tribute to Chicago and I was surprised that Rob wasn't more critical since he's such a perfectionist.  Guess he was being nice :)

Now time to promote another website.  I ran across this in another person's blog and thought it was so cute!!  The commentaries from this site are wonderful and will be sure to make you laugh. So for good humor and fun, check out "The Jack Sack".  Click here!

Just a few more minutes and I'll have pulled off the greatest con in the history of the presidency *insert evil laugh here*

I never listen to commentaries for shows. Perhaps I should for 24. Wait, that's not true. I did listen to one form Alias season 3, but found it rather dull.

That commentary is pretty funny! You should x-post to 24 communities about it. people would get a kick out of it.

Hehe

I'll be sure to do that next time I'm posting things in the different 24 communities :) Thanks for the suggestion!

Yeah commentaries are usually not that great

Except the one with Greg and Jean for Season Five. I listen to that one over and over ;)

Running up and down stairs, Logan's downfall, Logan's near suicide, and Tony's farewell. Good stuff!

ooo, is there a season 4/5 cd out now? I heard that there was one coming, but didn't know it was out already!

So I only have the first one, my fav tracks are "Amnesia", "L.A at 9AM", and "Jack On The Move". But yeah I pretty much love all of them!

Yes it came out earlier this year I think...or maybe it was later in 2006. Can't remember but great tracks on the new one! I love Jack saying goodbye to Kim too!
