  • I have a friend who is about 7 years older than me and she grew up with a lot of the same pop culture stuff I grew up with. She’s a teacher, university educated and close to retirement … bright lady who has been in the education system for elementary schools for decades.

    But in the all the time I’ve known her for the past almost 30 years … she still confuses Star Wars and Star Trek. I have a feeling it’s just to push my buttons because she’ll confuse something about it all and then laugh it off as it none of it really matters to anyone.








  • Ah-oo-yah-s-k? … Kee-seh-pah-tah-nah?

    I’m Ojibway / Cree … and this almost sounds like something in my language … kinda of like reading something in Latin for an English speaker

    It’s a different form of basic syllabics that I learned from. The ones you use look more like what the Inuit up north use that have more subtle inflections and notes to the sounds.

    Still very neat to see and I had to take time to read it because my memory of syllabics is very minimal and I haven’t used or memorized them in years.
