I\u2019ve added it to the list of Useful Sites<\/a> that I maintain here on this blog.<\/p>\n

And just so you know, I was serious when I asked why you don\u2019t know German. Get the Pimsleur language course<\/a> from your local library if you don\u2019t want to buy it or can\u2019t afford it, and get started!<\/p>\n
