Everybody at home speaks mandarin except me.
No one who set out to design a form of communication would ever end up with anything like English Mandarin or any of the more than six thousand languages spoken today.
I am a candid interview and I have a dark and dry sense of humor - a very Canadian sense of humor and I am only learning now stupidly that you can't read tongue. When I say something funny in a newspaper and I meant it to be funny it doesn't read that way.
