Fun with fingerspelling

I learned of this site today - this could be handy (oops) for those of you who want to work in your ability to read words that are being finger spelled. I heard we had a lot of that around here when the governor was explaining the hurricane to us - he had a trusted ASL interpreter right by his side. Not some raving lunatic like Obama had, no, the one here was the real deal, not an escaped mental patient.

Here is the site - try it out. You tell it how many letters long the word should be, the speed at which each new sign appears, then you check your work.

In keeping with the general mood around here lately, here is a cheerful little ditty by the reigning king of New Orleans Jazz, Dr. John.

Sixty wore a brown shirt in his youth!

To a red and green colorblind person all shirts are brown, including the white one I am wearing now. Seht, wie geschickt ich den Schritt gegangen bin Калифорнийский цыпленок?
