To be honest, I don't recall much of how you were leyning except for the donkey voice - which I found inapproriate.
If you truly view this parasha as a folktale, why would you find voices to be inappropriate? Would you refrain from using voices when reading a secular folktale to children? You might object that I was leyniŋ for adults, not children, but the truth is that when faced with the incredible maturity and holiness of Sacred Scripture, we are all children.
That is, stating your opinion on my opinions on the parsha is fine, but going off on a tangent about how you read Torah is something that belongs on your own blog.
I shall try my best to heed your guidelines as to what does or does not beloŋ on your blog. However, as an anonymous commenter posted on Fresh Samantha a few days ago, "fs- last i checked people can say watever they want according to the constitution". Anyone has the right to read, or not read, anything that I write. And you, as owner of this blog, have the power to remove any comment that I post. (At least, I think so.) In any event, I was careful to put my tangents in small print, in order to facilitate the desire of readers to skip them.
