Tennessee Technology Center at Shelbyville has announced its fall schedule, including various computer courses. One of these, at the very bottom, is a course described this way:

Intro to Blogging – Covers how to start a blog, use RSS and Twitter

The class will run Sept. 18 and 25 from 6-8 in the evening. Apparently, they had trouble finding someone to teach it, because they settled on this guy.

Meanwhile, the specifics haven’t been worked out yet, but it now looks as if I’m going to teach a United Methodist lay speaking basic course this fall at a church in Shelbyville. That one will have more than two sessions — instead of teaching the basic course over a full weekend or two consecutive Saturdays, the Murfreesboro District is going to try holding it on a weeknight, over a span of weeks, as part of the host church’s regular schedule of (typically) Wednesday night activities.

This will be the first time I’ve ever taught either of these courses. In both cases, I was approached and asked to teach; neither was my idea. We’ll see how it goes.
