Crowded House? You must be off your box. |

That's what B'Koy Interlang Newbies were more or less told by their DOS about all the other language schools in the area, back in the 90's.
And that we were all drunks.
Well, I suppose there was some truth in the last statement. |

No, I don't forgive you for asking, because the question comes with the inference that I'm stupid because I say something you don't like.
And yes, I know it was a rhetorical question. Ooh, I know the word the 'rhetorical'! And how to use it! And I have yellow hair!
I think the English Time rants should be kept to one thread. I've got nothing against rants per se, but the ET subject takes up so much space on this forum. Can't we keep it to one thread? |

| According to the report from our man in Istanbul, Interlang now has become ET, and the computers from the computer room of the said school have mysteriously dissappeared. "This reminds me of a 'science' fiction film I saw many years ago" said one of the disgruntled teachers at ET, previously called Interlang. Asked which film it reminds him, the teacher replied: "I think they freeze this guy, a cop, (Slvester Stallone) and defrost him after a thousand years, it could be called Demolition Man, and anyway when he wakes up in a different world - post-Bush and post-Shwarzenneger, the latter also becomes US president - he finds out that all restaurants are called Pizza Hut! |
If English Time attempts to force Interlang to use its notorıously awful books it will without any doubt lose teachers and tons of students just as it has at its other schools. Management of English Time take note - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Molly Farquarson are you reading this? |

The plan at Interlang is to have new students use the ET books.
However, those in the middle of a level, will finish their Cutting Edge books and then start the ET books at the next level.

| As everybody knows, Baba Alex has been informing us from time to time about the various extraordinary activities of ET in his postings as he did in his most recent one. 'What they don't tell you on the leaflets however that ET is just a money laundering operation for the Taliban and that they all the DOS's are on crack cocaine.' However, he forgets to mention one thing, a minor, unimportant detail perhaps, that the reason why the books supposedly written by ET will replace Cutting Edge/New Cutting Edge by Longman Pearson. This could be because they were/are all pirated copies, and ET didn't want this minor illegitimate activity to cause headaches for the big picture. Remember Al Capone, they got him for tax evasion, didn't they? |

| Pepys, I think you'll find that Molly has no say over such things. |
