LAID BACK GAUZE THE OLD TILE WAS GATTING ON SCHOOL DAZE AND MOLLIFIED FOLEY CATHETERS NOW OPTIMIZED WITH PREMIUM CONTENT FOR USERS BITTEN IN THE EYE BY PIPE BOMBS (PS: BOOTY POPS IS STR8 HO HO HO)

ummmmm so the score indicates a-flat major... a major is a .5 step HIGHER than the score indicates you freaks! i wonder if that is a test?

also: i wonder if all this hoops is a test to see who is rly dedicated to joining the choir.

additionally: even .5 step up, highest note would be e natural. maybe it's just not a thing w/ early music? i mean, we're not talking opera star high c's. i think if you have an e in straight tone you're pretty solid as far as the tessitura for the stuff they do? not sure. i know it's hella easier for me to sing higher in straight tone than full voice/vibrato-y.

Suddenly annoying, unclear nursing school assignment seems less intimidating. At least I don't have to sing it in front of anyone! ;)

It would be so awesome if you did, though

Well, it would make classtime a lot more interesting on some levels...

You should totally point out that the key is A-flat major to them!

In most early music, you do stuff down a half-step because A wasn't 440 then. The range shouldn't be too high because most of the parts were sung by men anyway.

yes.

When will you get the Final Verdict, tza?

When indeed? Hopefully soon!

Work crunch more or less over, so I'm feeling far more relaxed. Helps that the sinus infection is finally mostly gone too...

hey guys, just so you know I have just decided that "Bosnia" by The Cranberries is our official theme song, mostly for gut-wrenching lolz

BAAAAAAHHHHHHSNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

This decision was made based on the strength of this Youtube video:

I am also decreeing that Mamarracha Star is our official mascot

I mean look at these search results, this dude is legendary

Am I saving that for this afternoon when I'm stressed out and need a LOL? (YES)

Ned - ugh, glad you're feeling better; sinus infections are the worst!

Hey I didn't mention that I lost my phone, did I? So now I have upgraded to 3G!

Honestly I was doing so well with phones and now I've lost 3 in the past 2 years, ugh

drunk

more like "hungover", but yeah

John probably meant himself.

DAN! How did you lose so many phones? (on the other hand, cool upgrade!)

I am sitting and waiting for the grade on a paper I wrote in December. Prof. has told two people (via Facebook!) that our intervention plans (as a class) were not that good. Uh... could you just post the grades, plz? (Also, if we all suck at something so badly, could it be because no one has TAUGHT us? Really tired of spending time on nonsense reflection assignments when we could be learning what we're actually going to need here.)

PS kids at home are making me insane, too.

Phone 1: Left in coat pocket during a rehearsal at a high-traffic church. Was not in coat pocket after rehearsal.

Phone 2: Fell out of shorts pocket in the back of a Las Vegas cab.

Phone 3: Somehow vanished in between our car and a restaurant in Arlington; is either on the floor of a coat room or was left in a snowdrift.

My dad, OTOH, lost all of his phones in the Mississippi (this I think is the real reason he wants to get rid of his boat)

An impressive record, there, deX.

At least phone 2 was a work phone.

Whoa, I misread that second part as saying that your dad lost all of his phones IN Mississippi, which was kind of baffling me.

He journeyed to Mississippi specifically to lose phones. It was a ceremony carried out every year.

like the swallows returning to capistrano

Oh, look: John is sober enough to type words!

no no, i am sober as a churchmouse, i was simply blaming dans phone losses on the fact that he is an unrepentant inveterate drunk.

Have I mentioned that I am PISSED because our choir director gave all of the black ppl in our choir solos for next week due to MLK day, ergo I have to delay any drunken extravaganza-ing until that night or the next weekend?

xp ooh not helping my case here (lol funny that this comes up the weekend after I make an out-of-town guest hurl after downing too many scotches at a poker game)

SCOTCH! SCOTCH! SCOTCH! SCOTCH!!!!!

(oh yeah that reminds me btw say hello to your brother for me)

also everyone in the world should listen to more necronomitron but that probably isnt going to happen any time soon

description plz (leaving for home now so can't google)

Loud and evil.

yep pretty much. math-metal? maybe but not really. i was just sad to see that they only have 466 listeners on last.fm

starting to regret some of my ordering on my metal albums of 2008 for that thread on ILM. should have placed gojira higher.

Loud and evil sounds about perfect.

John is "sober as a churchmouse," huh. Strangest simile I've heard today. Well, unless the churchmouse is one of those Catholic ones with good access to the communion wine. (Communion Scotch?)

Dan, I would like to hear your solo!

Especially if the solo is loud and evil.

would an itr be interested in me making a compilation of "stuff i liked 2008" and sendspacing it? i need a project maybe i think.

i am tempted to maybe split it into "stuff i like" and "stuff i liked that you probably wont and i kind of dont blame you per se"

1. do you mean music-related and 2. what on earth is "sendspacing?"

I mean, there's plenty of stuff I liked last year that you wouldn't like. (That list may, indeed, be infinite.)

1. yes
2. might not exist anymore cant remember it is a way to get "things" digitally from "me" to "you all"

I feel sad that my music listening has been reduced to almost nothing due to infinite school b.s., but if I remember something during the end of the month (when I have a week off), I might be able to send it via email if nothing else.

(If I can manage to email a song to someone, surely other people can, and most likely they might have actually listened to something cool recently)

you know 24 hrs of having a 3G iPhone has not convinced me that the 3G iPhone is a big deal

Well, but you had an iPhone before. I bet if you had to live with my lame cell phone for a day or so, you'd feel differently!

I apologise to all and sundry for saying that school would be a relief. 1 and a half days and I feel overwhelmed.

lol told ya

wait I don't mean lol, I mean oh that sux

Hey, I enjoy school and thought you were nuts... (otoh, those orientation things can be really grating and pointless)

hey so is it worth me going to business school, y/n

Anything to get away from that kooky job you have, deX.

Also, if it's going to suddenly change you into a Black Conservative, I will find this wildly entertaining, so y.

urgent & key question: If you become a Black Conservative, do you get a uniform/bag/hat/pin?
