Dear Friends of Julius. The following is the current list of Julius
recordings available at Ted Knight's web site. Feel free to listen to them
.. Some of them (well, one does, anyway) contain comments about aroids. Othe
rs show an amazingrange of singular experiences. To tap in, copy this an
d get to it. www.tedknight.com/julius/julius.htm As the
site states: Each vignette is an MP3 of five to 15 minutes,compr
essed to less than 3 MB to load in a reasonable time. The second voice occa
sionally heard is that of Ted Knight, who livesnear Julius in South Flor
ida and is helping with the recordings. The two met at the annual aroids co
nference in Coral Gables, Florida, where they became friends. Q
uito_woodcarver - Jules tells about a boy he befriended in Ecuador who is n
ow an artist with the Vatican. Edible aroids - Learning about the plants
from his father in Trinidad, and years later feeding the IAS conference wi
th his recipes. Trinidad Christmas with hot peppers - His mother was a w
onderful cook, and the traditional holiday meal she prepared sounds exotic
and exciting. Mary Brown and palanka - You can get along a lot better in
a third-world country when you know somebody with palanka, or leverage.
Giovanni and the horse - A story about thrift and the way it was practic
ed by the good Marianist priest when he heard about a five-dollar chicken.
Blowgun boy, Uncle Frenchy, and the shrunken head - Young Julius is insp
ired by a cheap paperback, and then gets to see the real thing. Working
oil rigs in Trinidad and Ecuador - Proud to tackle one of the hardest jobs
in the world, and doing it well. The Shuara feast and the bag of salt -
Breaking the rules, he gives two people a lift in the pouring rain and has
an amazing experience as a result. The blowgun hunt - Making more friend
s among the Shuaras, Jules gets to show off the skill he learned as a boy.
Eat your spinach - The dinner table discipline drummed into Julius as a
boy pays off when he's offered a weird native brew. Take it from me,
these are fun. I think new ones will be added from time to time, so check b
ack at your leisure. Good listening, Ted Held
