I apologize for this subpar narration of Chapter 4 of HG Wells' The Time Machine. It was raining and there might be a little more noise in the background that usual, and the occasional mood thunder.

The Time Machine Ch 3
I apologize for this subpar narration of HG Wells' The Time Machine Ch 3. I just got back from a five-day trip with my 7-year-old, and I feel, if not look, a little like the Time Traveller does in this chapter.

The Time Machine Ch 2
I apologize for this subpar narration of H.G. Wells' The Time Machine. I think someone was tearing the tape off a delivery box outsidein the living room towards the end.
The Time Machine Ch 1
I apologize for this subpar narration of H.G. Wells' The Time Machine. My hand knocked over the mic at one point, and it wasn't even during the most interesting part of the chapter.

02: The Shadow Over Innsmouth Ch 1
I apologize for this subpar narration of Chapter 1 of HP Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth. I honestly have no idea how some of these made-up place names are pronounced.
01: The Tell-Tale Heart
I apologize for this subpar narration of a horror classic. There was this one part that was really hard to get through with a straight face.

It's a Hot Day In Singapore
Saturday morning, waiting, thinking
Yearning? No, I'm a little too old for that
I'm a little bit anxious about my workload
But I've happily given up on getting out from under it
I just pick at it
And hope it leads to next year's bonus
The book says there's nothing new under the sun
Did that change when we discovered the magic of credit?
And other shared myths?
What myth pushes me onward
Typing away on a little machine?
Who knows
lol
I wonder what's for lunch.

A Stone On The Ground
When the man comes around
There won't be a tear
There won't be a tear
In the flesh
In the eye
Just the wonder and fear
Of a brand new idea
A sketch in the sand
A challenge unmet
A people once determined
Now unsure
(or reflective)
And from doubt,
Faith!
Denial!
Anger!
Wonder!
Unbelief!
Disbelief!
Hello from my brand new toy!
I've just got done installing a billion apps on my Android phone, Blogger being the last. Bye bye iPhone, I won't look back!

With apologies to just about everyone…
Pentecostals: “Name It And Claim It!”

Charismatics: “Name It But In Another Language Nobody Understands, Including Yourself. And Only God Knows If You're Claiming It Or Saying Something Else Entirely.”
Roman Catholics: “Name It And Pick A Patron Saint For It If One Doesn’t Already Exist.”
Mega-Church Evangelical: “Name It, Create A Targeted Group Meeting For It, And Encourage Everyone In The Congregation To Plug Into The Group That Meets Their Needs.”
Small-Church Evangelical: “Name It And Try To Avoid Mistakes Suburban Mega-Church Evangelicals Make When They Go About Claiming It.”
Emergent: “Name It And Claim It. Or Invite Others To Join You In Claiming It. Or Write A Poem About It. Or Ask It Out For Lunch. Or Tie A Bow On It.”

Happy New Year!
Here’s how the Scots would put it (according to Wikipedia)…
Shid ald akwentans bee firgot,
an nivir brocht ti mynd?
Shid ald akwentans bee firgot,
an days o ald lang syn?
- Fir ald lang syn, ma jo,
fir ald lang syn,
wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
An sheerly yil bee yur pynt-staup!
an sheerly al bee myn!
An will tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
- Fir ald lang syn, ma jo,
fir ald lang syn,
wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
We twa hay rin aboot the braes,
an pood the gowans fyn;
Bit weev wandert monae a weery fet,
sin ald lang syn.
- Fir ald lang syn, ma jo,
fir ald lang syn,
wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
We twa hay pedilt in the burn,
fray mornin sun til dyn;
But seas between us bred hay roard
sin ald lang syn.
- Fir ald lang syn, ma jo,
fir ald lang syn,
wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
An thers a han, my trustee feer!
an gees a han o thyn!
And we’ll tak a richt gude-willie-waucht,
fir ald lang syn.
- Fir ald lang syn, ma jo,
fir ald lang syn,
wil tak a cup o kyndnes yet,
fir ald lang syn.
