media vita in morte sumus

Gun rampage at Montréal college

When eating breakfast this morning I was wondering if there were ever any cases of student violence in universities; in my lifetime I can only remember incidents that occured in high school such as Columbine.

Well, I guess there are. And though I know it's just coincidence, it creeps me the hell out that such a thought crossed my mind just before this atrocity occured.

Well, the brass section sounded kind of uncoordinated last time I heard them practicing on Wednesday. Then again, at the time I was attached to a bunch of electrodes and had on a pair of noise generating headphones for a psychology experiment. The percussion is pretty kick ass.

And luckily for you, the alumni section has just been expanded (http://www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2006/09/13/News/Alumni.Get.Student.Seats-2269186.shtml?norewrite200609150344&sourcedomain=www.dailytrojan.com) substantially in case you are interested in going to the games anytime soon.

By the way, would you be interested if I adapted your musical casting flyer (http://madbard.livejournal.com/709448.html) and stuck up some up around campus? I need to put up a bunch of flyers for something else anyway, so it wouldn't be any trouble.

That'd be wonderful! The most logical place to put them would be at the music and theatre buildings, if they're on your distribution route.

Sure thing! My dorm is close by to that part of campus, and I wanted to stop by that area to attract some participants for a game show.

I owe ya one. (I'm not sure one what, but I owe it to ya.)

BTW, I'd suggest printing out the PDF version of the notice, rather than the livejournal page.

Sounds good. I was probably going to shorten the character descriptions a bit and provide a link to the PDF web link for more details if that's OK.

Sure. Feel free to trim the part about there being no pay. They'll find out soon enough. :)

BTW, if you would, please let me know when you've put up the fliers (or, if there's been a change in plans, that you can't do it). That way I know I don't need to email them to USC's drama department and beg. :)
