It's easy to envision tuba quartets on the banks of a serene body of water, except 4 on a part. Wait 8, no 16, who knows how many might come?

The Chinook has arrived and with it a lot of very slippery ice and wetness. The up side - warmer temps.

This is your weather update from the mountain of south central Montana. :arrow:

As part of my middle school band director gig, I spend one day a week at our high school, teaching lessons to all the low brass players. Today, my top student (a sophomore) auditioned for the all-state band (having already being accepted to the all-region band), and came in #1 in the entire state!!! He nows gets to perform not only with the all-state band, but the orchestra as well. He's an amazingly talented kid, with a great work ethic, and I couldn't be prouder!

It is approaching 2:00 am MST, suffering from a rare bout of insomnia. But I will turn in shortly and if anything stare at the ceiling a bit. :|

Don't like the Steelers. Don't like the Jets. Can they both lose somehow?

You were significantly uninformed before, you just didn't realize it.

I just realized -- "Is my hair starting to get thinner?" is the male equivalent of "do these jeans make my butt look big?"
