Let me know what kind of stuff you teach (I have a sense that you teach English to business students, but I'd like to know what you do exactly to suggest activities.)

He is a very solid Dylan fan (knows Dylan's entire discography and the lyrics to most of his songs), and could not bear continuing to watch this movie after about 20 minutes. He was highly irritated by it. I did not feel one way or the other - not after just 20 minutes. I may rent it and try to watch it on my own. <BR/><BR/>I was told (by my brother, among others) that <I>There Will Be Blood</I> was awful. My brother also adored <I>Shine a Light</I>, which I have at home and will view this week. I actually have not seen any of the movies you mention (except for the 20 minutes of <I>I'm Not There</I>.)Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397908781677596824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38510434.post-13449738359082878482009-01-03T09:09:00.000-08:002009-01-03T09:09:00.000-08:00Randal, it's a deal, you can get one cast for me!A...Randal, it's a deal, you can get one cast for me!<BR/><BR/>Actually the goals are fairly reasonable.
