German Bands

Heckz Yeah!! I've got an admirer!!!
And I really hope I get this job tomorrow. One of the first things I'll be purchasing is German on Rosetta Stone. I WILL learn if it nearly kills me!

Don't let it get to your head Skie! and wish you luck with the job!

I'll try not to. Learning another language is one of my first major steps to becoming a polymath.

You really mean polymath or did you mean to write polyglot?
It's hard to become a polymath, I don't know anyone living in this age you could say is a polymath. A very difficult task you have set upon yourself if you really mean polymath instead of this being a case of lapsus calami.

Well, I like to believe that knowing multiple skills can also involve knowing multiple languages. There is a little phrase that I enjoy about today.

\"Since we cannot know all that there is to be known about anything, we ought to know a little about everything.\"
- Blaise Pascal

Back in the Renaissance there were quite a few polymath's but these days they seem few and far between. If one Da Vinci can change the world, what could a thousand Renaissance men do? I just want to feel that I've accomplished something by the end of my life and knowledge is all powerful in my eyes.
