"Jefferson Davis’ Birthday, also known as Jefferson Davis Day, is a state holiday in Alabama on the first Monday of June and in Florida on June 3 each year." Also, here's a list of state-specific Confederate holidays: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confederate_Memorial_Day | |

Caryn, when I was in college I learned how to pronounce "Krzysztof Penderecki." (!) Thank God for higher education . . . | |

miss cheri:
hey there caryn--what's up? how you been? | |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 7:29pm
Caryn:
Heh, John. Yeah, Penderecki was 5th or 6th grade, then in 7th grade we got introduced to Schoenberg's 12-tone technique. In 8th grade, X-mas songs in Swahili, and proper bass-playing technique... Hmm, am I to infer that our music lessons were a bit different from most people's? Maybe it's just national differences? | |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 7:32pm
Listener John from NJ who lives in NJ:
When I think about some of my middle school music teachers, I think that I would like to play some early Schoenberg for (or at) them! | |

Listener John from NJ who lives in NJ:
Wouldn't it be better to get legal personhood stripped from corporations rather than giving up legal personhood ourselves? Just askin' . . . | |

Ralphine:
I can't remember who wrote my favorite poem, or even the entire poem, but it has something to do with a man from Nantucket. | |
