Today was my first day of picking Ashley's I-don't-know-what-to-call-him-just-yet's brain. He might be a son-in-law soon or maybe already. Anyway he's from Benin. Helping me review my old high school French. The only French language book I can find is eighty years old. At best my French will be more or less correct but almost a century out of date. I am more likely to learn the words for ink and inkstand than, say, computer or calculator.
But in the mean time I trying to help him on his English which is serviceable in a Mr. Ecko sort of way.
