I'm a Blogger!

Oct 29, 2008 23:11

Not just any blogger - an Expat Blogger!

I was on WNPR's Where We Live today and it was great fun! With three other bloggers in Senegal, Argentina and Germany, I got to talk about how the election is viewed from afar. And my mom says I was definitely the best one on the panel - she's completely unbiased, though. Seriously ( Read more... )

Chris, if you don't already listen, you should check out World Have Your Say on the BBC. You can e-mail, text, or call in on whatever subject they're talking about. I listen every day, and e-mails reply's when feeling moved to do so. I'm going to click over to Where We Live now, nad see if I can listen to the show.

Many thanks! I hope so too.... I'll be sure to bring my camera and document the elation/despair (circle as appropriate)

Thanks Christopher! anonymous October 29 2008, 16:01:54 UTC

Just wanted to thank you for being on the show today! Great job, fun panel, and some excellent voices from Connecticut, too. Take care - JD

You sounded nervous at the start. You didn't remember your training from WVCR! Damnit, all that time training you, all for not. *sigh* - Soulie

I didn't have anyone standing behind me to whack me upside the head with a clipboard, so can you blame me? *grin*

Touche, sir, touche.

I will say you found your voice pretty quickly, though. And you had a better, more personable delivery than the woman from Africa. Once you got into the Collective vs. the Individual, I thought you really hit your stride. - Soulie

Thanks. It's been a long time since I've done anything like that, and it was good fun....

Excellent and insightful comments Chris! I didn't think you sounded nervous at all - but very much in control of your thoughts and inputs. I learned a lot form your comments. Another potential career area for you - either in print or on the air - or both!

GREAT JOB! You were the best of all the commenters!

Love,
