I like the sound of deadlines as they pass by

Holy hotcakes, Batman!

Apparently the Electric Penguins are playing at graduation after all! Pat says that everyone can come (except for perhaps Katie who might have a soccer game?) to graduation after all, so we're expected to perform with the pianist, Vera...

Can people meet on Friday, or earlier on Saturday to practice "Trumpet Voluntary"?

good night, gentlemen and ladies

It is rather fun to sink one's claws into a particularly stupid male chauvinist, especially if you've been stressed and grumpy. I think I'm starting to scare them all away from one of my favorite communities at this rate. I resisted the urge to get super screechy and rude, but it's hard when I see the words "evil feminist" next to each other in an unqualified example. No wonder my male friends are too scared to even bring up the subject of women's rights near me...

I find it rather ironic that I've been listening to a lot of Bernard Herrmann's scores for Alfred Hitchcock films in the meantime. Finally, I have the chance to start analyzing the development of Herrmann's various themes throughout the progression of his works with Hitchcock-his scoring of the "icy blonde" concept's rather intriguing. One of these days I'll actually see the entirety of North by Northwest instead of in isolated chunks.
