Speech Comm

201--2nd period

Ok, by now you should have your idea. I want 100 words. That's it. Sum it up. If you can be that precise, you won't have any trouble with the actual speech.

301--3rd period

So we have fish and cats and dogs and bunnies and lemurs and all manner of animal companions. Is it human nature or social conditioning...or is it some kind of mental illness, that makes us talk to beings that can't communicate back?

Barbossa turned in his 100 words:

Zombies and vampires be real. Candy can make ye sing. Flyin' be possible. Girlkissy should be a national-type pastime. If ye be patronizin' the arts, be sure t' be bringin' a camera. And possibly a flashlight. Principals may change, gremlins may be exterminated, but Anakin Skywalker will still be findin' a way t' make an idiot o' himself.

What be I learnin'? That Fandom be a strange, wonderful place. That some parts o' the future be so different from what I be used to that I can hardly believe it.

But people? They be stayin' pretty much the same.

"Perfect, Barbossa...but what is 'girlkissy'?"

Barbossa grinned. "Be ye not listenin' t' the radio, Professor? Thar were a very nice demonstration o' it jes the other week. Callisto 'n Veronica, fer instance."

Alanna's bag was shaking in a very revealing manner. It was even coughing a little.

Barbossa grinned at the bag.

A black tail poked out of the bag and waved.

Barbossa reached into one of his pockets and pulled out a piece of dried fish.

What? He's the pirate.

He tossed it towards the tail.

The tail caught the fish and bobbed a few times in thanks. Munching noises can then be heard from the bag. Alanna didn't even bother head-desking this time, she just sighed and shook her head.
