The humor in the essay engages my interest. The part of this essay where I found myself laughing out loud was close to the end when I started to read the “quintessential Lisa story,” David unconsciously reaches for his small notebook that he always keeps on hand. David knows that his family often wishes that he wouldn’t include them in his stories but he can’t help but take notes when he hears something that he just simply cannot pass up.

I first heard an excerpt of this in a sample audio file that was included with an old Rio MP3 player. I was 11 years old at the time, so my much younger brain didn't get most of the jokes. I am 22 now, and I am laughing throughout this. Also, I am glad this wasn't mixed down to mono in the upload. Preserving stereo information is always appreciated!

The main theme of David Sedaris’ essay “Repeat After Me” seems to come down to a very sincere apology from Sedaris to his family. The essay takes place during a visit with his sister Lisa where Sedaris comes to a realization of the uncomfortable realities of exposing his family members' lives for material. At the end we are left with a little tender moment where David apologizes, not directly to his sister but through her pet parrot, Henry.

OK, had to do some on line detective work to figure out that David is reading from "Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim." Sure wish poster OX would have explained. Not very professional, altho I love being able to listen to Sedaris.
