Company Classes and Speaking Contests.

• I had a company class tonight. The company: Legris, a French fastener company. The topic: Space and a Grammar lesson. Time Limit: 90 minutes. It wasn't enough time even for a subject that is hard to generate conversation for like Space.
• The Chinese are telling me that they are merely disappointed about Liu Xiang not running.
• There is a new user on Youtube called wuxiandls. I suspect that this a plot by the f***ing Russkies to get back at me for comments I made about them in an earlier entry.
• The school will become deserted over the next few weeks as the Summer School students leave and the part-timers go back to fall activities.
• My best ever hire, Courtland West, is teaching his last class tomorrow. I hope he can work for us in the future. He will be going back to his native South Carolina to marry his Chinese sweetheart. Good luck to them both!
