There's gotta be at least "the slowest person in Kenya" who will start behind him....

Birdman and WTU are the slowest runners on the paug.
Let that soak in.

You have to first "run" to be labeled a "runner". I will not participate in such outlandish suffering.

Bump! Unlike running, I haven't given up on learning languages!

I've been concentrating on TWI (what is spoken in Ghana) as of recently, but still have the biggest vocab of Swahili.  I just came to realize it's extremely rare to come across Swahili speakers. There seems to be Ghanaians all over the place however!

I've also dabbled in Wolof (spoken in Senegal) Amharic (spoken in Ethiopia) and a bit of Somali.....it's been a blast and the most I've used my brain in years. I've been going around to African markets/stores etc. while on tour and making a fool of myself trying to talk to people. Most are shocked and elated, some indiffernt, and a few annoyed/offended. It's been a worthy journey I plan to keep at!

I'm pretty sure The Jauntee could fill MSG 13 nights in a row w/ people who have seen us and were annoyed by the music.

I've tried to figure out a bit of Amharic due to the fact we stayed over there for a few months.
It's a beautiful language but not an easy task to say the least.

So hard. Amharic and Somali are way more complicated than the other three I mentioned. The grammar is tough, but as an english speaker, the pronunciation is even tougher. Lots of odd, guttural, throaty sounds.
