M: Okay, click to order. Great. Soon I'll be reading "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement."
W: Who on earth is J. Habakuk Jephson?
M: Arthur Conan Doyle, actually. That's the name of a short story he wrote about the Mary Celeste, or the Marie Celeste, as he called it. Doyle wrote it as if it was the confession of someone who'd been on board, and it caused a real stir when it was published anonymously in 1884. A fair number of people thought the story was real.
W: I see. Well, it is a mystery that would have intrigued Sherlock Holmes. That empty ship with the lifeboats still there…
M: That's not true, actually, and Doyle's responsible for that misconception. There's evidence that the Mary Celeste set sail with one lifeboat, and there were none on board when the ship was discovered, but Doyle fictionalized that bit to say there were multiple untouched boats.
W: Oh, okay. Well, if you're looking for fiction based on the Mary Celeste, you should also check out Phantom Ship.
M: What's that?
W: A 1935 Bela Lugosi film. Lugosi plays this down-and-out sailor who joins the crew of the Mary Celeste, and…
M: No, no, don't tell me. I want to be surprised if I see it. Have you heard the alien abduction theory?
W: The what?
M: This astronomer in the 1950s suggested that aliens made off with all the people on the ship. Part of his argument was that the upper rigging was damaged, apparently because the aliens hit the ship's masts while they were overhead.
W: Well, that's one explanation, I suppose.

Dear Alison,
I'm your old aunt, Fiona. I can't believe the news ! You are my little American niece ! I'd like to meet you so much ! I'm 91 years old now but don't worry : I'm still very fit. Jake says that you are very artistic. So am I ! I can sing quite well and I can dance a little ! I also like sports. I can't play football at all but I'm quite good at rollerblading and I can do karate. Your cousin Ben says I am very good at it ! I am hopeless at knitting but I can make delicious cakes ! Well, you see, I can do a lot of things for my age! But I have a secret talent. I can tell magic stories. Ben and Jake think I am fascinating. We must meet my darling ! I'm too scared to travel by plane but when you come back to England, come and visit me, we'll have fun !
Love, your "new" old auntie, Fiona Sterling Benson.

★Santa vs. Snowman★ (Decmember 27, 2013) This is a video story for children that one of my on-line friends introduced me to. I felt it interesting, so I'd like to explain it here in English, in order for me to practice my English explaining skills. The name of this video is "Santa vs Snowman." This video consists of three parts, and each part is 10 minutes or so long. So I feel it's good for beginners to English, like me.. So, if you are also a beginner to learning English, try to listen to it with me. I hope you could meet Santa yesterday, and that you had a great Chistmas as well! If you didn't meet Santa, then try to meet him right now on this video. Sweet dreams!

A．This is for you.
B．Oh my gosh! How did you know that I wanted this?
A．I can't tell you.

A．Hi, it's Eric. How are you?
B．Eric? How do you know my phone number?
A．Your sister gave it to me.
