VIPKIDS is an organization that teaching English to Chinese kids over the internet. My friend Chandra Holt has worked for them for three years now and uses that work to finance her travels around the world. She has also been very supportive in helping me prepare for my interview which requires me to actually teach a demo class in Phonics, something I haven't really done. But I can talk the ears off a Billy Goat and I can fake a smile and interest in anything so I will try to be as animated as I can be. I understand they like that.
I have missed teaching and I promised myself this year that I would do something that really scared me this year. I just didn't think it would happen so soon. But even if I fail and they think I am a freakish looking gargoyle who will just frighten the children then I at least took my shot and this year my motto comes from SNL and Lin Manuel Miranda.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
