"If language is what makes us human, it is languages that make us superhuman"--preface, Empire of the Word
Dreamed of meeting Anthony Hopkins in London; hearing a long-winded speech from him about being Brad Pitt's mentor and being delayed on the way to the airport; joining a Meetup-type group that was going to grow crops.
Went to the NDP campaign office and got a sign to put up on the lawn.
Dinner was roast pork.
Finished the book about Scottish-Canadians and started reading Nicholas Ostler's Empire of the Word: A Language History of the World. Looks fascinating.
Went to a Kaaoke Meetup at Bar Plus. I sang the duet "I Got You, Babe" with a woman.
