Awake
One of the best ways I’ve found to stay awake when you’re tired is to just keep eating things.
Just keep eating.

Lady: I don’t want to leave Ohio. It reminds me a bit of Texas except it’s colder.
Wow.

Brian: What I don’t understand is that Zorro is able to be totally stealthy… yet he’s wearing spurs. Its, like, dude. All this would be so much easier without the jingly accessories.

Dearest Readers,
I want to vamp up two sections of this website. The first is ‘favorite posts.’ If you look at the bar on the left and scroll down you’ll come to a list of favorite posts. Do any of you have any favorite posts that you think I should include in the list?
The second section is the About me page. Right now it’s passable, but not awesome. It definitely needs new photos. Any other suggestions?
Rock,

The BSO
I did indeed make it to the BSO last night. Pepe Romero’s guitar skills were sick and the orchestra was powerful. Erich, Kim, Jesse and I had front row seats which gave us a wonderful view of Pepe’s miracle fingers. These fingers would best be described by the word ‘fast.’
Also….there was no mic on the guitar but the sound still filled symphony hall. It was humbling listening to his music. It was also extremely fun to see my sister play with the BSO. Great job Alicia!
A few other fun things happened. In one of the final movements of the final piece, the timpani came in furiously at the conductor’s cue. Because of our proximity to the stage, we could immediately notice the violin players stifling laughs. Violin #9 caught the eye of Viola 1. They smiled at each other. Violin #5 actually turned her head to catch the eye of one of the other violins behind her. What was so funny?
I spoke with Alicia afterwards and she informed me that usually the Timpani’s came in quiet and reserved at that point. But that this time, the musician decided to belt it out. The humor was just too much for the violins to handle.
Also, because of our Row A seats, our heads were right at the level of the orchestra’s feet. Jesse, who was sitting behind us, leaned forward just after the admission and whispered to me:
“New game, find the musician with the most exciting socks.”
he then leaned back in his chair and said
“so far, I’m not impressed.”
The woman next to him only heard the second statement and turned in shock and horror at Jesse’s disapproval of this phenomenal group of musicians.
The only bummer of the night was the fact that we got back to the HoR close to 2:30am. I am one very tired mike d.

Congrats to Patrick, Mykal, Liz, and UUIG for figuring out last week’s Satellite image as Prague. And good job to Liz & Will for snagging the Dallas skyline title just before the deadline.
This week’s challenge is a little different. You’ll be able to figure out why. Let’s see how good Patrick’s satellite recognition skills REALLY are. bwa ha ha
