Spoken Wordelec. Now Open.
So this happened. Or rather is happening. Over here. (Reblog if you’d like. I don’t have a rampant follower base.)
This is a place dedicated to the bard formerly known as the Western Electric, currently representing the Wesleyan Electrician’s Guild, and possibly known as the Westinghouse Election Rigger should they actually catch him before the statute of limitations runs out.It’s inspired by an actual reading by an actual person who actually sounded fantastic, but who unfortunately went unrecorded. It was decided that should never happen again.
So here’s the deal. (Or, the Kelly Deal if you will.) Take a video of yourself or your least favorite family member narrating a Weselec post — Tumblr or Twitter. Hell, capture a Flickr if you can figure that out. Whatever.
Those looking to submit? Pick your brilliance. Press record.
Everyone else? Duct tape your ass cheeks to your hamstrings. If this goes well, they might get laughed off.

Well, I guess if you went snooping around my Vimeo account you could probably stumble across it.
