In high school I took a Spanish class that used dialogues from the book but I never learned Spanish because I can remember only the dialogues. I’m not sure what they mean all the time. Carrumba!
I can listen to David read his books again & again. He is so clever, so smart, so funny. I've listened to these a million times, yet I still become fully engaged each time I listen.
Ha!...he concluded he had become a tapeworm,.....versus a bookworm,......once he adopted the use of the Walkman portable tape player, as he listened to books on tape, and tried to learn French, listening to tapes. Just this month in July of 2022, I wondered if "we" can change how we praise people. For years people would praise others who read a lot of books, by saying "they were well read",....meaning they had read all the best books. I wondered if there would be a new way to praise people who listened to the reading of all the great books on tape. Can we be called, "Well Listened"?
I too took the tapes with me when I moved to Germany. But those things drove me crazy so I set them aside and drove to the city center and cruise about. I learned lots of German language though highly limited to certain interests.
@jenifaui That is a great book. What a surreal story to be listening to and what a strange connection you have made. Have you heard Sedaris ask, "Io tanke des, ne?"
I was a huge tapeworm when I lived in Japan. I listened to Neil Gaiman's American Gods on a rainy visit to Tokyo in the Spring. When I remember Tokyo Tower, riding the Shinkansen, and Asakusa Shrine, I think of Odin, the goddess Easter, and Anansi. It's a little disconcerting.

Entertainer like no other
Pro tip: don’t listen to David while you’re at the gym. You’ll make yourself look like an idiot. 😂

I don’t often laugh out loud, but David made me do it. He is a deeply, truly funny man.
It's "decidedly creepy" to try to look edgy while your sister Tiffany psychologically drowns....
