Hahahahaha, "Somebody wants to know whether dueling is murder, and we reply in clarion tones that it depends largely on how fatal it is" had me laughing way too hard

Sections 14 and 15 are also PL OK, great job!

Thanks, Foon, that was a funny line!

I uploaded 16 and 17. I made a note on 17 that I said "oneself" instead of "ourself" at 3:56, but didn't correct it. If you think it adds more comedic effect to say "ourself," as Nye often does, I'll change it though, otherwise the point gets across either way, I think.

Nice progress again! I'm planning on having another painting day tomorrow, so I think I'll be able to listen to them all then

All sections are PL OK, except:

Section 20:
0:00 missing "Section 20 of"

Great job, excellent delivery!

Thank you so, so much! I put in disclaimer for section 20. Is that it for that one?

I also uploaded section 22. I have recorded through 27 at this point and hope to edit some more and upload before your next painting session.

Take care!

I just edited and uploaded through section 26. Having recorded the rest, I may edit and upload them in the next day or two. This was a fun little book, though a little more mocking of Mormons and Native Americans than I expected. Sign of the times I guess.

I just uploaded the rest of them. There were some funny ones near the end. What he said about bald heads reminds me of just what my father used to say on the subject (I come from a long line of follicle-challenged, maybe back to Caesar?!).

I hope you enjoy them, Foon.

Cheers!

I absolutely did!!

Fantastic job on all of them, the rest of the sections are all PL OK

A fun book and great reading; it's been my pleasure to be your DPL!
