Pretty great, actually. Hands down, my favorite professor is Math. The lessons are a riot :D Which is a little funny, because I never did well in Math.
I'm trying to decide between taking Spanish or German. I'd love to learn both, but I'm not sure my brain has the potential to learn two new languages at the same time.
I guess Spanish is more useful in the USA , but German more specialist and different ?

Well, me and my siblings are 1/2 English, 1/4 German and 1/4 Irish because my mom is 1/2 German 1/2 Irish. She spent a few years in Mexico in her twenties but also knows a bit of German because of my grandfather. So both are very interesting to me :D

I suspect I'll have to get on with Doctor Who soon. I'm just putting it off because there's so... much... to watch... ;)
Best to start from 2005 than 1963.
You can watch the older stuff later.
And then of course there are hundreds of original audio dramas, hundreds of books, more than 50 years of comic strips, films, comedies, documentaries......
The Whoniverse is a very big place.

More importantly, how neanderthal are you?

I took German in high school. I LOVED it

It was a quieter month in The Cold Dark Room.in September.
The reasons?
Well the month was one day shorter, but mostly schools have gone back and holidays are over so everyone's busy with their lives.
Also, i haven't posted enough questions, so the bonus points have been limited.
And one or two of The Cold Dark Roomers are Missing in Action.
Having said all that, it's still been pretty busy at times and has been a nice a place as ever to come and relax, chat, talk nonsense and also exchange serious thoughts on some important issues and problems and provide support and encouragement to each other.:)
And I'm doing a top 30, this month, for the first time, just because I feel like it. :)
A big, big thank you to everybody who's popped in and made this such a fun place to hang out.

Those that didn't make the top 30 include Tortoise Forum itself, for wishing me a Happy Birthday ( i know it's automatic, but still).
Wifey, for laughing along with it and putting up with me being on here so much, though she had points deducted for bad behaviour during musical armadillos.
Puffy, for popping in to have a looksie, once again. Still miss you @puffinboots
Also missing @johnsonnboswell who is very busy at the moment but made a brief visit right at the start of the month. Come back to us soon!!!!!
@Yvonne G for a single, but welcome post.
Also with a single visit @90Matt ......have you gone off time travelling again ? Welcome here when you get back.
And last, but not least @mike taylor Still waiting on some air freshener Mike. Someone else brought some, but it's nearly gone.
Thanks all.:)
