You can only link to YouTube. YouTube prevents downloading (copyright issues; personal property, etc….).

And links will work as long as the user maintains the video on his/her YouTube channel.

Thank you! I’ve been working on a presentation for interpreters, and this is JUST what I needed! I found an ASL version of Jabberwocky on youtube also, so this is great comparison between cued English and ASL.

I love what happens as folks procrastinate during finals…. hehehehehe.

Esther…. I fixed it so I get mail from wecue. and I got mail about Jabberwocky…… I eagerly clicked to open, all the while thinking…(my computer is a little slow) ooooh! if its good..(or even if its not,) I’ll send it to Esther , if I can figure out how to do that. When suddenly! To what did my wondering eyes did appear!But Esther herself, with no tiny reindeer! I shudda known! Whats even funnier than that is this……..sometimes I occupy mental time reciting Jabberwocky, too! (in lieu of an ipod, which I woudnt use if someone set it up for my own personal use, payed for it , put it in my ear and turned it on and off for me.I might accept it, tho, then take it to a pawm shop for cash, then I could go to a thrift shop…….something else to occupy mental time…mmmm..what might I find there?) any way…excellent cueing, girl! and very expressive. Recite it to your charges (an excellent intro to the wonderful, wacky world of Lewis Carroll literature)

nah, I don’t mind at all . Sooner or later someone was gonna see it!

I love Jabberwocky too. There could be no finer cueing choice for wasting an hour with the mac cameras in the lab during an all-nighter in the deepest darkness of finals season. (Or for occupying mental time reciting (in lieu of an ipod) when you are sitting scraping dirt out of a square meter in high Texas summer, for that matter.)

I hope you don’t mind me posting it, but it was sooo good! I’ve always loved that poem and to see it cued was just wonderful. It reminded me again how so much of our literary culture is lost unless the exact words, real or imaginary, can be conveyed in the manner in which they were intended.

how is it the moment I log on the net with my own computer for the first time in a week, my mail jumps and tells me I’ve been found out!

psst Barb, I promise I will have new posts soon, maybe with a few video samples which I have been working on (Jabberwocky was a just for fun/practice piece for subtitling/youtube; it sat on my hard drive for a year until I decided to dredge it up a couple weeks ago).
