Dr. Owen Cotton
2009 May 24
At Owen’s speech therapy appointment last week, it was time for one of his 5-minute discussions with his therapist where he can practice his conversational skills. He said, “I notice that we’ve had a lot of conversations but haven’t had any interviews or debates.” So she asked him if he wanted her to interview him. He said he did, and that he was a famous paleontologist who had just made a discovery in Mongolia.” So she began the interview, “Ok, Mr. Famous Paleontologist.” “Actually”, he said, “my name is Dr. Owen Cotton.”
This is from our spring break visit to the Natural History Museum in Raleigh.
That sounds like his speech therapy has been very successful! Maybe I should have had some a few years ago, maybe I’d still be an academic then
