This weblog of an English teacher at a Franconian "Gymnasium" type secondary school is meant to provide students with additional, class-related material they might be interested in - plus the odd personal comment on the world at large ;)

Merry Christmas!
As a special Christmas treat this year, you can listen to Mr.Weese's radio show on Christmas Day and Boxing Day (25th and 26th of December)... Just tune in to Radio Bavaria International between 4pm and 6pm Central European Time.

Start-of-term
...but no feast in sight. Well, this isn't Hogwarts, after all. Has it really been six weeks already? Alright then - here we go again. Glad you could make it ;)

A Tribute
Germany's very own Hans Zimmer, soundtrack composer for The Dark Knight, wrote a haunting piece for the Aurora, CO victims. 100% of the proceeds will go to the families and survivors & I recommend you download this on iTunes or elsewhere... As I've read, apart from the horrible tragedy that they have to deal with, a few are having real trouble paying their own medical bills. Many thanks to Chris Huelsbeck for the note on facebook.

How Mr.Weese almost ended up in "Back to the Future"
I've just recently re-discovered the novelization of BTTF Part 1 by George Gipe in which I once highlighted the name with my text marker: A minor character called "Weeze" was supposed to "lend" Marty McFly his skateboard... Ah, that would've been nerd paradise for me... http://backtothefuture.wikia.com/wiki/Weeze
