Woo Nellie! I have a new respect for the phrase "7500 words." Especially when 15 of those words are 'goosetherumfoodle." Anyway, here's that Poe story I mentioned a while ago. I learned a lot of new words in 3 languages including English, and discovered that I have a hard time keeping Latin from sou...

Hey friends, I wonder whether I could get some quick French help? I studied it briefly in high school, coming away only with the lesson that you can't guess how to pronounce a word just by looking at it. Specifically, I've got: Prononcés- an adjective, is the s pronounced or silent? Argent comptant-...

I haven't been here long, and dare not speak for the whole group, but for myself, I say that you, joemorris, are amazing. That's a darned handy website you cooked up!

Why thank you! I do enjoy reading his parts- now if only I knew how to speak for a spunky but crippled 18 year old female, we'd really be in business! I'll probably be back for more in a while, I actually checked this book out from a library so that I could start reading the rest of the story. There...

I'm as patient as the day is long, as they say, so if the thing is just that nobody's gotten around to my poem yet, that's entirely fine. But I do have a suspicion that the small post I made a week ago at the very end of page 31 went unnoticed. Did y'all see that recording?

Here's an Audacity problem for whomever. I've got a USB mic plugged in (it's a CAD U37) which serves my needs delightfully. But Audacity seems to be really hit or miss on when and how it recognizes the microphone and the headphones. Like, when I select input and output devices, sometimes it displays...

It's true, but man, Poe's style works for me.
... as long as the DPL lets me get away with whatever pronunciation I come up with for Oppodeldoc...

Well that's astonishing and awesome, and I'll get right on that! I do have one question that arises from this story, for you or anybody else who might read this (I might do better to make a new thread for it, but no rush, I guess.) To cite a surprisingly relevant line from the story itself, I find t...

There's this story by Edgar Allan Poe called "The Literary Life of Thingum Bob, Esq." that I'd love to record. At least, I think somebody should record it, and it doesn't seem to have happened yet, so I figured I could do it. So I searched the LV catalog and nothing came up. I searched Gutenberg, an...

Here it is! Is it to your liking?

Not to double post or anything, but I'm thinkin' I would happily read section 3, and therefore seek your permission to do so officially.

Here's mine! Does it pass?
