Today, I regretted not having prepared any materials for Groundhog Day today.  None of the students in my parents class had heard of Groundhog day.  Here are some materials that perhaps I’ll use next year.  Maybe I’ll use them tomorrow.

• Groundhog Day on Starfall
• Groundhog Day on Wikipedia
• Groundhog Day Video on Animal Planet (2 minutes)
• Groundhogs on National Geographic (No video)
• Groundhog Day Search on Hulu (No movie, just clips and trailer)

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a late night appointment with one of the funniest films ever.

No one could successfully accuse and convict me of being a fan of Rammstein, but I think I might like the earlier underground music that came before the band.  The underground bands were constantly pushing the limits of the German Democratic Republic (DDR).

I made this discovery while listening to this interview with Paul Landers (Radio Goethe). I enjoyed the old and weird  music of Paul Landers and I liked his  descriptions of making music in the DDR and of what life was like in the transition after the wall fell.

If you are trying to learn to read and write Khmer (Cambodian) from the beginning, you should probably check out KhmerSchool on YouTube. He’s posted more than 70 videos so far.
