Todd: Phil, you said you're a teacher. Did you study education in college?
Phil: No, actually, I studied engineering 1 in college.
Todd: Really. Engineer!
Phil: Yeah, I was an automotive when I was younger.
Todd: Automotive, like cars?
Phil: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Todd: Oh, cool. Wow.
Phil: It was really interesting a job really exciting but I kind of came into teaching 2 to try something different and to maybe gain confindence in myself as well.
Todd: So if you're an engineer then you must like gadgets 3, right?
Phil: Oh, yeah, I love gadgets. I got many in my room.
Todd: So what kind of gadgets to you have?
Phil: Well, my favorite has to be my laptop computer of course. I think everyone should have a laptop now because it's complete entertainment. I can watch movies. I can download music from the internet. I can write reports on my students. I can research new games on the internet. I can do anything in the world on my laptop. It's just amazing what you can do.
Todd: So you talk about downloading things. Like you must have an MP3 player or ipod.
Phil: I've got an ipod as well, yeah. I love my ipod. Everyday I listen to music. Music is one of my main passions in life and I particularly like rock music and scar 4 punk as well, so I download bands from all over the world on the internet that maybe ten years ago nobody would have been able to find information about, so I think things like ipod have opened up the world of music to everyone.
Todd: Right. Right No, I agree. Actually, I have an MP3 player and an ipod and I use them all the time.
Phil: Yeah, it's amazing.
Todd: So, you're really into your laptop. You're really into your ipod. Any other gadgets that you really like?
Phil: I suppose I have to say my digital camera. When I was younger, I was absolutely useless at taking photographs - well I still am absolutely useless at taking photographs. I always manage to miss the main part of the picture or the thing I'm aiming for. Once I get the lighting 5 composition completely wrong. So with a digital camera, I can choose the photos I want and I can keep retaking them until I know I got the one I actually want, and then on my computer, back to my laptop again, I can edit 6 the photos until they look exactly like I want them to, so digital camera is amazing for me.
Todd: Yeah, I agree, like I use cameras a lot for the website and I couldn't make it without them.
Phil: Yeah, it's amazing how in the last ten years things have changed so much, like we said with the ipod earlier, I used to have a cassette 7 player when I was younger.
Todd: Right.
Phil : It was huge, and it was like taking a brick 8 with me everywhere I went, and not the ipod just fits in my pocket and I don't even know it's there. It's amazing the difference.
Todd: Yeah, I listen to the podcasts on the way to work and it makes my train commute 9 so much more enjoyable.
Phil: Yeah, yeah, I get the news from the BBC, the British website, so I can listen to the news in the morning and find out what's happened back in my home city. It's like keeping in touch with the rest of the world
Todd : Right, right. OK, thanks a lot Phil.
Phil: OK, thank you.
