Ellen flung his/her poo at fj.life.in-japan in a fit of rage and the resulting
spatter looked uncannily like this:

>Hello all! My name is Ellen, and I've just come across an exciting way

Download 20 CDs instantly? Why, you must have an internet connection as fat as a
gawddamned fire hose!

>or order through the mail. They offer a 100% money back
>guarantee along with their promise that you can master the language in
>only 8 weeks!

Damn. If I had only known this in 1988. I could have been here in time for HM
the Emperor's funeral. And I was wasting my time watching Mary Althaus and _The
Adventures of Yan_!

>I wrote a review about them and all the languages, including Japanese
>of course, that you can learn with them, in a fun, fast, and easy way.
>With them, you get to play games to learn the language! No boring drills.

I thought that was how most younguns today learned Japanese -- by playing
pirated dating sims.

"With its two thousand eyes, the common housefly can discern 
 the rotation on a 90-mile-per-hour fastball in a way Wade Boggs 
 could only dream of! However, flies seem to have problems with 
 off-speed pitches, and are easily distracted by dog shit."
