New Material

As interest in topics relating to the McRib seems to have waned, I will now turn my attention on new and exciting subjects such as the following:

1. NBA Playoffs only on cable TV. Grrrrrr!
2. I actually like Mandy Moore's new album????? (She's grown up a lot ya' know)
   
3. When recently asked which natural disaster I'm most afraid of, I surprised myself with the quick and vehement answer: "Tsunamis!" I knew there was a reason I've been avoiding that trip to Indonesia. Did you ever see the movie Deep Impact? (shudder)...(second shudder)
   
4. The other day Caleb taught Taylor to say "Fart Head." They grow up so fast.
5. My Facebook momentum has died. If "number of friends" became "number of friends you actually stay in contact with AFTER see who they married and what their kids look like", the number would probably be around 10. Are YOU one of the 10? If you comment, that means YES!
   

Man, I Grossed Myself Out

I apologize if I traumatized anybody with this picture of the inside of a McRib. I gave myself the willies and couldn't keep it in "Picture of the Day" for more than a day. If I didn't already know what it was my official guess would be pancreatic cancer cells under a microscope. For posterity, I'll include it in this post. This should provide motivation to keep blogging so I can get it off the screen. Needless to say, no additional motivation is required to avoid the McRib.

Honk if You Love Atonal Music

I met someone on Sunday who is getting his PhD in music composition and is writing his dissertation on atonal music. He claims that the only reason people dislike atonal music is because they've been trained for centuries to like tonal music. That's kind of like saying that the only reason people like salt is because they've been putting it on their food for a long time. I tend to think that the real reason there is not much interest in atonal music is that, like T.S. Elliot's poetry, you have to study it for hours to get anything out of it. I must admit that I am not the most experienced when it comes to modern atonal or "meta-tonal"(?) composition. I'd love to give it another try if anyone has any suggestions for composers.

ps If anyone with ginormous monitors is still experiencing Mohammed Ali scalp at the bottom of their screen, please let me know.

My Goal is to Get Mohammed Ali's Face Off the Page

Oh yeah! Mission accomplished!

I'm Going to Start Posting All the Time Now!

SEEE?!

Time for Mohammed Ali to Go Bye-Bye

Man that guy has taken the spotlight for WAY too long!
