sorry I didn't make it out last night, my freelance meeting went until 9 and then I had dinner and passed out.

Man I love passing out

yeah no disrespect to drinking or dancing or nothing, but sometimes sleeping is the big winner.

btw anybody get the movie reference on this one?

wehn dx bloody maries time begin

also, many machines on ix

maybe I should start a sean young vs. virginia madsen poll thread. I mean, seriously, the deleted scene where muad dib is all "she shall have my name and nothing else" explaining shit to chani, what the fuck are you thinking dude, goldmine, blond, hot, plus her eyes ain't all weird. paul giamatti would hit it.

INDEED

i can't understand any of tom's posts. i am leaving for a 1-4 a.m. dance party. i am going to wait until this speedies record is over though.

LET ME TAKE YOUR PHOTO!

xpost- that i can understand and firmly get behind.

I'm home and not tired, and out of cigarettes and cash and the delis are closed, and everyone was busy tonight. I knew this, which is why my Real (tm) birthday will be tomorrow, but I'm home too soon. WAHT TO DO

gimme a highfive

I kind of want to be still on bike, slipping through the still-warm night air. So maybe I'll to to Park Slope to the ATM and just ride around.

TOMBOT i forgot bloody marys is postponed due to a family engagement and lack of schezuan peppercorns for suitable vodka enhancement :(

Shit's gonna happen and will be real but I gotta make sure I can bring my A-game.

late night dance party should have been more fun than it was. i still haven't learned not to fall for girls who want nothing to do with me. anyway, i've got gin, i've got tonic water, i've got a lime and records to listen to. i should probably go to bed but fuck it, i'm up, might as well make the most of it.

damn rolling thunder. Patriotic hippies on harleys are the worst. It's like a huge cicada infestation.

yeah back when we were in arlington by the key bridge that shit was completely out of control

http://data.tumblr.com/2481089_500.jpg

that question is totally asking for it

hey guys i have to move! now what? can i find anything in a not dangerous neighborhood under 1K/month?

this is sad

I finally drank the raspberry lambic my roommate gave me for my birfday. :DDD

what I did this weekend:

drank gin & tonics
drank a LOT of water
hated rolling thunder
worked
watched 5 james bond movies

drank A LOT of coronas (on purpose!)
drank fresca
hated myself, for being such a lazy shut-in
didn't work, not really even on ableton
watched both the smithee and lynch cuts of DUNE (filmed in mexico; hence coronas)

all told another great wasted 3-day from your friend "well all my plans got canned so I guess I'll drink a lot and take a series of naps,"

random IMDb find of the day: http://imdb.com/title/tt0166222/

oh, I watched some tutorials on DJing in Ableton and there's still a lot I don't understand about file organization and management and saving warp markers within a track without saving each track as a project.

here jessie

http://imdb.com/title/tt0274518/

Hey Tom, that guy is my friend too:

drank wine or G&Ts
drank endless cups of tea
hated the rain, for moving sideways like that for three days
thought a lot about work and my looming deadline bud did owt
watched a lot of television all too quotidian to drag into this, except for Dr Who

I've actually seen that.

Anyway, what's important about my link is who the director was.

Yes you've basically pwned everybody with that.
He lives around here now, I think, knocking up Alias chick and probably trying to figure out whether he should show up at a Clinton rally or a Barack one.

grillin
pacificos
playing basketball
foods from the african / caribbean fest thingy by bam
red stripes
playing w/4 2 y/o girls at friends birthday
best tequilla

Oh and my friend Matt signed me up to receive two phone calls from Darth Vader telling me to watch the History Channel yesterday morning.

Yes you've basically pwned everybody with that.

I have the sneaking suspicion I may be the victim of SARCASM ON THE INTERNETS.

the phone call from Vader pretty much guarantees you had the best weekend on ILX.

unless someone got a phone call from Capt. Picard

is the song w/picard sample still on that one noize thread?

i got call from r kelly

it wasnt this weekend tho - it was like 2 weeks ago

no I wasn't being sarcastic, Affleck: student director is probably hilarious.

Especially if you go in with the assumption that he has probably mellowed out into less of a bro/dick as the years have gone by.

everyone seems so hungover today.

guys

You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver

Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away-get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel

Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid

Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen

Repeat verse 1

whyyyy is that drunk woman in hotel calls bartender fag thread still going?

hey.. once again.. anyone actually living in dc - ally - didn't you say you guys saw a fair number of apartments in dupont area that weren't insanely expensive? everything on craigslist is like $1200-$1600 which i cannot remotely afford

http://kscakes.com.nyud.net:8080/LolCats/Uploads/Saved/not-a-tiger-suck-my-dik.jpg

fuck craigslist, get the apartment guide out of the express tomorrow or whenever that runs, try columbia heights on the sketchier side of 14th or so, also further uptown maybe on the red?

not gonna move to columbia heights.. i really want to be somewhere that doesn't require driving to work (ie on bus lines d1/2/6 bus or 32-34 or N1-6 up Massachusetts ave)

Real World Style Group House/Mansion (MacLean)

You have to have money. We don't care if you have a good job or if you're a trust fund baby... as long as you can pay the rent. People who don't pay the rent suck.
You have to be down with parties, especially on the weekends.
You have to be clean... more or less. A maid service is included in the rent, but it is still no fun to live with slobs.

You have to spell the name of the suburb wrong, it is no fun to admit you live in a boring shitburg between koreatown and a bunch of golf courses

seriously, who can afford all these f**king apartments that cost $1200-$1500/month!!??

ok lolcat generator = no more productivity from me ever

see: hstngs thread

dar1a are you looking for a place by yourself or would you be looking into roommate situations again as well? i think most of the stuff around this area is kind of like $1k or more per month.

hey.. I don't want roommates, to be honest, I've done it & time to move on, I think. I have a lead on a sweeeeeet place owned by a friend of a friend, crossing fingers, I may end up very close to your neighborhood

$1k I could cover but more than that, is trouble (and even $1k is more than technically I ought to pay given pathetic university salary + student loans)

LADIES WHO INSIST ON WEARING DARK PANTS IN MAY WHEN THE HIGH IS 90:

YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I, TOO, HATE YOUR BODY FROM THE WAIST DOWN.

apologies if any of you did this today but jesus christ it's summertime wtf with the safety clothes

NB the apparent misogynist bent of this post is because there is absolutely nothing to say of dc men's work wardrobe except HELLO PATHETIC HERD OF CLONES - and on weekends these guys "hang out" in pleated shorts: 100% fired, airship plank

also I get to wear untucked shirts and jeans to work so maybe I'm being a little high-and-mighty but eh

for my last day of work next week i should come in drunk, Y/N?

no because dickheads can have you arrested for shit like that. since I just read this and the whole bullshit about Mike Figgis getting jailed for telling LAX immigration he was in country to "shoot a pilot" I'm advising you against doing anything that seems more likely than your daily routine to wind up with you incarcerated. Shit, LiLo can't even drive drunk in this country anymore.

although if you did get tossed in the tank to dry up for your last day of federal employment it'd probably end up being a totally hilarious thread

i think i'm gonna bang in and use 8 hours of sick leave. i didn't realize i'd get a check cut to me for my annual leave so i'll have $$$ for that 200+ hours.

p.s. i don't drive to work as that would require me stealing a car.

get drunk, steal a bike, then bungee yourself to a taxicab (beltloops to bumper) and pay the driver to take you to work

everyone else in the office is upstairs in NIMS/ICS training but since i'm not gonna be here i said fuck it. me and the receptionist are downstairs eating cookies.

I SHOULD HAVE QUIT A LONG TIME AGO!!!

well, if you are around in mid august we shall drink a beer or two.

By his side — episodically — is his somewhat mysterious 49-year-old wife, Cécilia, who left him for another man in the summer of 2005 and then returned several months later. She was absent during most of the campaign and didn’t bother to vote in the second and decisive round of the election.

French politics is so much more entertaining than ours

hahaha, this is so great

Indeed, Mr. Sarkozy uses the informal “tu” instead of the formal “vous” with colleagues and journalists alike. But two weeks ago, when Mr. Sarkozy addressed Alain Juppé, one of his senior ministers and a former prime minister in the formal Chirac era, with “tu,” Mr. Juppé seemed so flummoxed that he replied in a convoluted formulation, avoiding both “you” forms.

i should go back to france

Is that like how dubya gives everybody dumbass nicknames?

"I'm gonna call you Wrongy 'cause you're always wrong"

the Tu/vous thing has been a huge issue in the presidential campaign. One of the Rightwing candidates wrote a book basically saying that the overuse of the familiar Tu was a symptom of how bad french society had got and that the use of the more formal vous ought to be much more widespread.

sarko the american just doesn't mind

yeah kinda like dubya's nicknames ! juppé thrown so off center by the lack of manners he doesn't know what to say.

Cécilia Sarkozy used to model for Schiaparelli how cool is that!

this is just speculation on my part but the sheer WTF factor is probably going to keep his ratings high, i mean, as long as he keeps entertaining people and doesn't start any wars in the middle east

oh hey guys so basically my entire department just went to nice fancy lunch together and didn't bother to invite/wait for me and our admin? this is basically slap in face y/n

well you guys need to do the work so the rest of them can afford lunch

How's everyone?

taking 8 hour classes on the f****ing WEEKEND what was I thinking

how are you?? I haven't seen you in like six months!

HI Q!

i am just returning from drinkin' island with several dc cohorts.

you and the mr. should come stay with us for june 24:

forrealz!

Oh man, the Mr. and I HAVE talked of doing an NYC trippy. . .

Hi daria! I am OK, just took an interneting break for a while owing to busyness at work (in a good way, I suppose, although I may have to find a way to tranquilize my new ed in chief) and good weather for puttering around in the garden. Am now recovering from the lower respiratory tract infection from hell, which kept me out of work all last week and thus resulting in major oh-shit-how-am-I-going-to-catch-up-ness.

On the upside: strawberry season!

see what's funny is that that video then suggested i watch this, which makes me think that DC thread is programming the internet

waht

LONDON (Reuters) - A British artist who last week ate a meal of meatballs made from a dead corgi dog in a protest against animal cruelty said Sunday his next project involved being buried in a box under a mountain of mashed potato.

Performance artist Mark McGowan, 37, said the corgi, which died from natural causes, tasted terrible.

Corgis are the favored dogs of the Queen, who has owned more than 30 of them during her reign.

McGowan said he ate the dog because he was angry that the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, of which the royal family is a patron, had not prosecuted Prince Philip, the Queen's husband, for hunting and killing a fox. The RSPCA said the fox did not suffer.

Now McGowan is switching his attention from animals to vegetables. He told Sky News television that his next project would be an interpretation of the work of American illusionist David Blaine.

"I am being buried in a box -- a David Blaine type thing -- in Dublin underneath a metre of mashed potato," he said. He did not explain why.

So for a second there I missed the "metre of mashed potato" part, and was wondering why they were referring to David Blaine as a vegetable.

He did not explain why.

yeah well

i just don't think there's any reason a man should have to explain why he wants to pull a david blaine stunt with mashed potatoes.

NA NA NA NA NA NA POTAOES

http://fusionanomaly.net/closeencountersmashedpotatoes.jpg

The fox did not suffer my fat, spoiled, American ass. I mean, whatever, British monarchy already totally irrelevant who gives an archaic fuck non-shocker, but running down a fox with a pack of hounds until it collapses from shock and exhaustion or is snapped up and torn into pieces by whichever dog(s) get to it first is in NO POSSIBLE WAY not-suffering. God. FUCK them, srsly.

fox hunting outfits are pretty cool, though.

http://people.lulu.com/storage/users/826/24826/images/47865/Her_Majesty_Queen_Elizabeth_II.jpg
deary you must understand that when the fox is suffocated beneath a meter of mashed potatoes he does not suffer. in fact he quit enjoys it. i did not explain why.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/233/524127061_ee15fc202c.jpg

oh im not so sure abt her

I do not understand adults who place stuffed toys in settings like above, or worse, in the family home once kids have flown the nest (HI MOM).

I do understand a great big mess of damaged stuffed toys impaled on the front of a garbage truck as here in Britishland. Yes. That I totally get.

gravymom totally needs to visit buried alive mashed potato man.

GRAVY-MOM and the POTATO-MUMMY

delicious consequences

hey, melt-banana 6/12 @ the black cat, anyone interested? (should i go?)

seems like master disaster but I've never been to japano noisiness in DC before

If I was there, I would go.

my willingness to go to shows anymore is really dependent on what the crowd is going to be like because I can't stand ...people

people. . .they're the worst

Dance like an epileptic loon for 5 minutes, hey presto, space.

i just got e-mail from my sister, it says "what's up with ppl putting the phones in their mouths?" lol

Hi I am working at a Skinny Puppy show tonight. I am dressed entirely inappropriately. PS Dan are you going?

I am not going. ;_;

I was supposed to have band practice but now I'm having a BBQ with college friends; three houseguests who all hate industrial music = no Skinny Puppy show for Dan. (I've still never seen them! ;_; ;_;)

I get them confused with Rollerskate Skinny.

White Mice is opening, which is somewhere between weird and cool.

im having a hard time believing there is still a skinny puppy

well, 2/3rds of one at least

whatre they gonna play at axis are people gonna have dreadlocks

THEY ARE PLAYING AT AVALON ROFFLE ROFFLE ROFFLE

Skinny Puppy live!

The most obnoxious combination of mosh pit enthusiasts and mosh pit haters ever.

He had this box suspended over the stage, and he timed his performance so that when he stuck his head under it, video of his singing head gettin tore up Hellraiser style played on the screen in sync to the lyrics he was singing live.

Good showmanship.

I'm sure glad that I've seen Skinny Puppy.

I just hope the audience is ready to drop a lot of cash.

Dear Fluffy Bear:

Go eat a diseased mouse dick.

xoxoxo

dude you should just be all "I IS TRAPPED AT JORB" and come down

or tell them it is an ashlee simpson concert or whatever

^^^ this is why my friends from home don't visit me

pipe bomb on lansdowne.

Dear HI DERE

Can't you blindfold guests and be like LOL we're all here now we might as well enjoy it?

<3

just pretend you're going to a hip nightclub with tons of babes and be all "LOL BAND IS PLAYING TONITE I DID NOT KNOW?"

yes^

speaking of boston shows (on the d.c. thread), my friends in the hibachi stranglers and jeannie and the tits are on tour:

June 23 - Boston @ Abbey Lounge w/ Turpentine Bros

turpentine brothers fucking destroyed chicago and milwaukee this past weekend. i've never seen jeannie and the tits but they are friends of mine (bass player is originally from lynn lynn the city of sin). hibachi stranglers are from alabama i think and have an insane angry samoans crossed with the gun club vibe to them.

except "hip nightclub with tons of babes" is obviously a complete scam esp. in Boston

tombot knows not of eurotrash?

is there actually a band called the insane angry samoans or is that like a particular sort of sound/ethos you are trying to describe

cf. use of modifier "hip"

Angry Samoans are a band

OK

"insane" was just a modifier/adjective

the vibe, which i find to be insane, is that of the band the angry samoans mixed with another band, the gun club, and put together.

INSANE VIBE

FEATURING LIONEL HAMPTON

ON THE CRAZY VIBRAPHONE

dude, what ISN'T hot about these babes:

http://stuffatnight.com/photos/partypics/images/188/300x200.aspx

Angry Samoans/Gun Club combo sounds really cool, Kevin, I will try to check it out

i want to gouge my eyes out with shrimp forks. thanks jessie.

you should go for the turpentine brothers, AMAZING sets this past weekend. i cant wait until october when i'm out there to see them again.

See the problem is that the BBQ we are going to is not hosted by me, it is hosted by another college friend who lives in FRAMINGHAM. There is no wai I can Skinny Puppy tonight without faking my own death. ;_;

boston lol i havent had to live in you in so long

OMG FRAMINGHAM.

my boyfriend is from there.

I was on landsdowne a couple months ago for an early show at Avalon and we left just as all the clubgoers were arriving. It was pretty scary.

Framingham is also pretty scary.

There is no wai I can Skinny Puppy tonight without faking my own death. ;_;

"i'm going out for a pack of cigarettes..."

i went to high school there, framingham

public school? I heard public school there is pretty scary

i don't think i've been to lansdowne st. since i saw sebadoh there in like 1998. not counting red sox games, natch.

I will be in Harvard Square tonight although I'm not sure if that's asking for trouble since today is Commencement. Also, I've somehow agreed to go to a 90s night against my better judgement. I should probably fake a sudden illness, right?

I know a bunch of people from Framingham strangely enough.

I saw Sebadoh a couple months ago but it was at the Paradise so I successfully avoided Landsdowne.

i must admit i have seen many a good musics on landsdown: boredoms, melvins, royal trux

I hope to GOD there is a baseball game tonight. goths + bros = laffs for jessie

ewww 90s night. Axis has an 80s night that actually sounds kind of cool now.

wait there are 90s nights now? omg sux sux sux

i have a tough time believing that anywhere in america ending in -ham could be home to a rough high school

That'd be kind of appropriate, though wouldn't it.

it wasnt rough it was a private school

xp

oh wait i missed jessies post

i have a tough time believing that anywhere in america ending in -ham could be home to a rough high school

yes because nothing has changed in the 350 years since the city was given it's name.

dude, it's MA, that's kind of a fair assumption

Jessie - I think the Sox are away all week unfortunately cause that would have been something to see.

Axis 80s night - really? They used to have one there around 1999/2000 upstairs that was ok. There was also and old fashioned four picture photobooth up there which was fantastic. I wonder if it's still there.

90s nights - I know, it's awful but I owe someone a favor. :-(

What if it were named Wham

crispus attucks was from framingham, it's always been rough there.

Harvard Square will be utter madness tonight! You need this:

no doubt!! hey are they playing in DC? that would be funny, i should go. i think i should stop trying to seeing bands that are new & cool and just go see whatever esp stuff i listened to 10 years ago. will prob get random industrial ppl asking me "hey are you having a nice time? is it too loud for you?"

CHRIST I CAN'T EVEN POST with this review function constantly on all the time!

is bill's bar still on lansdowne? do they still have the cheap pitchers of "bill's brew"?

Axis 80s night - really? They used to have one there around 1999/2000 upstairs that was ok. There was also and old fashioned four picture photobooth up there which was fantastic. I wonder if it's still there.

Revolution Rock Bar has one now. I don't know because I've been there, I swear. Someone told me.

Bill's Bar is still there, I doubt the beer is still cheap.

God, we played Revolution Rock Bar once. That place really really sucks.

x-post to Dan - I will bring scary cat with me tonight to fend off the crowds! The more I think about it, the more I think it's probably the worst idea this friend has ever had.

does your cat like Wham

Wham was from the 80s bro.

a) I am not your bro

b)90s nights - I know, it's awful but I owe someone a favor. :-(

Yeah, I'm going to go have a cigarette and start thinking up excuses right now.

why don't more bars in san diego have web sites? and the ones that do, why don't they have their music calendar on them? fucking pissing me off over here.

I mentioned I might go to UCSD for grad school and someone from CA was telling me san diego is brotown?

parts are. just as parts of boston are (HI DERE KELLS). i used to think i couldn't live there but i'm thinking about moving there. i'll be out there for a week next month (less than a month away!) and we'll see how that goes. towga was telling me our dog's cataracts are getting worse and his sense of smell was never the best so i'm hoping he remembers me. it's been 11 months since he's seen me. if he doesn't remember me it might break my heart.

EVERYONE GUYS WTF
http://www.dcist.com/2007/06/07/photo_of_the_da_18.php

You are teh famous!

omg KELLS.

tell me how it is! I think the person who told me that stuff underestimates my ability to ignore people anyway, though.

i haven't spent much time in s.d., i've been there less than five times but i've never encountered any bros when out socially. actually that's a lie, me and towga went to a "fancy" (for us) restaurant the last time i was there and there was some broage about. but what i noticed mainly was a HUGE number of aging skatepunks. i found that hilarious because if you're 17 and still a skatepunk i think you're too old for that shit. if you're 34 it's bordering on black comedy.

i'm sure the weather attracts a lot of bros and it's obviously a military town but it's big enough where you can avoid it if you want. but seeing as you'd be there for school it might be somewhat harder to avoid them.

when i come back to boston in october can the boston ilx contingent meet at the kells for a pint? please!?!?? it would either be hilarious or sad and if it's sad we can go elsewhere. i'd be eager to see what difference 13 years makes to my opinion of that place (which was never very high to begin with).

Kells? I live within walking distance from there but have only been once when I first moved here and didn't know any better. Get this - they serve all Asian food now and have totally renovated the place. It could very well be hilarious.

and friday is LADIES' NIGHT!

ENBB I'm pretty sure you live like within one block of me.

JM - I'm probably about a 15 min walk from the Kells. We live on the Allston/Brighton border closer to Comm Ave but yeah, it can't be far. Speaking of 80s nights like we were earlier, have you been to The Common Ground on Thurs night? It's not bad. Also, they were having a thing every other Sat that was the 80s night DJ v. The DJ from The Pill which was pretty good too.

holy fuck, i used to live on comm ave basically at harvard st. which was real close to the kells and the disgustingness of brighton ave.

Yeah, right around there. Thankfully our street is pretty awesome and not at all gross. We're staying another year because our place is cheap and I'll be in school again in Sept. Knowing that I'll be around there longer I've been trying to focus on the good things about the area. It has more than you might think!

unfortunately it also has more rats and annoying hipsters then I remembered from the last time I lived around here.

I don't get the whole "GAH those annoying hipsters!!!" thing. they look stupid and no one is forcing me to talk to them, whatev. then again I also know most of them.

I live near the Allston St. T Stop.

Yeah, maybe annoying isn't the right word. Ammusing is probably more like it. We're near Washington St T.

Oh man, I can't type or spell today. Amusing, obv.

yo TBOT if you're there on the 28th we can hang out in Estonia.

I am considering day trip to see Nats-Cleveland @RFK on 6/23 (7pm game), can get limited # of $20 tix if anyone wishes to accompany. will decide in a few days.

Dear Greater DC thread:

Tell me about the greater DC area. I am living "here" (with my cousin and her husband in mt airy, md, lol commute) and interning "here" (Suitland) for the summer and would like to venture out and see/do/eat stuff. Things along the red and green metro lines a plus, but not necessary. Also, how well-attended are Nats games in the evenings?

M BISON LET'S BRO OUT whhopps all caps jeseus

ok red line is where i live and green line is where i used to live.

if you like basubaru you can pretty much get tickets for any nats game you want via dc craigslist.

let's hang fool, I heard you and I are the only people on this thread what got tracks down and haven't fired our bassist.

LOL @ rock hotel tonight

Ended DJ set @ 2:30 tonight as scheduled, then mingled and friends left around 2:45, they came back in a minute later and club was all like "OK THERE HAS BEEN SHOTS FIRED PLEASE DO NOT STAND NEAR WINDOWS LOL!" and so we were locked in until 3:30. Pretty good afterparty, really, put on some more music and I had somehow had the foresight to pack a full bottle of rittenhouse rye in my DJ bag so swigs happened. So much CHARACTER in that neighborhood, wvidently aside from the shots there was some lady who passed out in her car outside with it in drive so when we finally left there were ambulances and police all over.

Pretty good time.

If only I had a bassist to fire.

Is there anyplace to see Game 4 on Thursday? With any luck I will be in a one-man San Antonio championship celebration parade that night.

oh god

"When she visits Washington from San Francisco to lobby Congress against the war in Iraq, she stays in Code Pink's new group house on Capitol Hill, where nearly everyone wears pink, where her bedspread and her pillow and her bedroom curtains are pink, as are the drinking cups in the kitchen and the flowers that grow out back."

i am possibly moving to columbia heights and i opened up the metro section this morning to read this article on crime going up again..

i read that article too. don't make me go on another code pink rant! wtf. one of them posted a diary on daily kos and i was like "Hi I'm a feminist so actually I don't have to do politics dressed like an idiot fairy princess"

best part of the code pink article:

Montgomery Adopts Revised Sex-Ed Lessons

The Montgomery County school board voted 6 to 1 to adopt new sex education lessons to be taught in all 8th and 10th grade classes, including a provision that allows teachers to tell students who ask that homosexuality is not a mental illness.

The dissenting vote came from Stephen Abrams, who objected to that change and other last minute additions to the lessons.

"This is what we call a happy ending," said Elinor Walker, an attorney and parent who served on a citizens advisory committee that helped school system officials complete the new lessons.

That's not what I call a happy ending!
