things are looking up!
Whateverist and GBD, two cool guys I wouldn't mind one bit meeting in real life!
When I get the time (meaning, when I have half an hour in front of the computer without kids and wife buzzing around asking what I'm doing, and while there's some natural light around, because the webcam is shite), I'll do a "accent" thingie where I'll show you guys all the cool sounds in the portuguese language that are remarkably absent from the english language.
Hopefully, I'll tell you the difference between 'a', 'á' 'à', 'ã' and 'ê' (this last one is rare... I can only think of 2 words with that accent on an 'e' -> 'dêem', 'vêem', oh, oh... a third, 'têm') and all those wonderful diphthongs that kids hate in school! 'ão', 'ães', 'ões', etc...
That's the plan, at least. You guys think it may be worth the trouble?
