I happened to have chatted previously with those particular guys while having a smoke, so I felt I was on fairly safe ground!<BR/>The Sisyphus thing, while certainly having an element of truth, was basically just me venting a bit of spleen. I rarely post about teaching and EFL, etc. (and this certainly isn't an EFL blog!), but when I do it's generally just to let off some steam. Please take it with a generous helping of salt!<BR/>Thanks for dropping by and commenting.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02630742048605089548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160223.post-17368650966347539112008-02-23T10:17:00.000+09:002008-02-23T10:17:00.000+09:00Good story.

Well done. <BR/>I like your English teacher as Sisyphus analogy. Again, I can relate, and it seems that no matter how fun one tries to make classroom teaching, it just doesn't work much of the time. I think most of the kids I'm teaching now speak more English when we're having a smoke together between classes.<BR/>Cheers!Michael Stouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17357822437408420316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5160223.post-1135273073100206342005-12-23T02:37:00.000+09:002005-12-23T02:37:00.000+09:00Thanks Mary, come back anytime.

Believe me, there are thousands of books more interesting than anything on the web (unless you read them on the web). Just some old fart advice...<BR/>RickRickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02630742048605089548noreply@blogger.com
