well, that is not exactly true. it might be true if i thought it would be a good idea, but what is true is that i've been trying to check out more news programs in german.
mainly i've been peeking ard's online news, but i try to read some other stuff too. they have a lot of video's which i find easier to put on in the background so i can do other things all the while and pick up on german piece wise.
sometimes i feel like watching foreign news, even though i understand it all, is a lot like watching something put together by an airline to show on thier inflight entertainment. when i start to think about all the different programs and things i'm taking in now, my mind often also wanders to the fact that there are so many things going on around the world.
i need a helmet, because my minds about to be blown.
so what's in the news? if you're on a merchant ship near somalia, watch out for pirates. if you are a member of the bedouin tribe in israel, congradulations with obama. if you buy a new macbook, you probably download movies off itunes, and now you cannot watch them on an external monitor (sorry).
ok those last two weren't german, but they're news.
.jrs.

Hey man... keep being a student of culture... not matter where you are at.
We need to catch up soon... I'm thinking like Skype. Let's schedule it! I was thinking about you this morning. Let me know when you're free. I'm in New Orleans for a couple days, then back to Kansas for Thanksgiving.
Miss you man... want to hear from you and figure out how I can be praying for you.
