Anybody can just take 'em.

I am feeling disorganized at the moment. I use a planner and a wall calendar and Google Calendar and I set alarms on my phone, but I keep forgetting things. I make plans but sometimes lack the follow-through. I think the multiple calendars is probably a large part of the problem.

I was thinking about this today and the rental car scene from Seinfeld came into my head. I imagine myself making plans the way Jerry gestures and says "Anybody can just take 'em!" (0:57). Please enjoy.



I also found this video of ESL students doing the scene. Quite impressive actually. Mirroring, that's a good idea for learning a language. Clearly I know nothing about ESL. I do enjoy this guy's version of Jerry's gesturing (0:50).



All right. Back to work.

That actually looks like a good way to practice English!!

Wonder what scenes my students would want to reproduce? And from what shows?

I cannot believe this entry only got one comment. It is my very favorite skit (in my very favorite show.) Thank you, thank you for putting it up. It made my night!
