So is anyone else being hit hard with lots of flu cases lately? We had like 22 out in the band the other day.

Yes, but not quite that hard. 10% of kids at my school were gone last Wednesday. It seems to be getting better though. 22 is a lot. Some of my classes had like half the kids gone.

Supposedly our school is having some sort of outbreak, though I haven't seen anyone missing yet. Perhaps their attempts to contain the flu have worked?
(Of course, with a band of 280, it can be hard to tell if there's someone missing)

Really random but I just discovered that my "baby" brother (he's about a foot taller than me) was featured on his photographer's blog over the summer. Aust and I got the "look far too young" genes, you can clearly see his in some of the photos. www.klosephotography.com/wordpress/austin-senior-session/(He's snare captain if you can't guess from the first photo)

had all-county band tryouts today. i think my prepared piece went well actually sight reading... well, the judge was my middle school band director, kinda weird for your judge being the person who heard you play your first notes... instead of having a minute to look over it we had 30 secs.. and get this, it had FOUR sharps in the key signature and was in 9/8 UGH! AND THE JUDGE PICKS OUT THE MUSIC!!! i will find out if i made it tomorrow.

Today, I learned that my father had never heard of the cultural phenomenon known as Chuck Norris Jokes. I changed that.

Found this a few weeks ago While Grant Imahara would never sink so low as to engage in a fistfight with Chuck Norris, in the time it took you to read this sentence, he’s already built a robot to do it for him. There are more at manwithpez.com/2009/10/16/grant-imahara-vs-chuck-norris/

^ That is awesome. One of the reasons I want to get the Navy internship (other than it'd just be a great internship) is that I'd be on the Navy yard and I may just be able to see a real live NCIS agent.
(Isn't Gibbs Special Agent?)
