In today's ed speak, buzzwords are everything, and fancier buzzwords impress people more....those not cynical snarky ######## like us Edited February 22, 2018 by Jeff Ream 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, we were supposed to play "Impossible Dream" when the winner was crowned (it was the 70s). The emcee, who'd sung a solo earlier, was NOT supposed to sing Impossible Dream. But he did, or he tried, coming in several counts off our otherwise seamless rendition. Everyone of us recognized immediately the problem and the solution. And without a word being spoken, we all shifted automatically to his (mistaken) count. That was synergy - and one of the greatest musical moments of my life. Your story reminded me of a drum corps moment that I would say was synergistic in nature...DM counted off n 6/8 time instead of 4/4 in the middle of competition...everyone broke off at different points but solidified synergistically at the next form...it was so seamless the judge comments were nice scatter drill etc etc....all the "parts" came together whether intended or not...haha 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flunked biology in high school. Only class I've ever failed, anywhere. Needless to say, my parents were thrilled beyond belief. LOL. Especially since one of my older brothers was a college biology major. "Why didn't you ask him for help????" is one of their reactions I can print here. But I got an A in biology during my re-do in summer school. There's something to be said for motivation. LOL.
