  1. Sorry if this offends anyone, but the CDs are just proving to me that BD's 2010 musical arrangements were an ungodly mess.

      I didn't need the CDs to come to that conclusion--I know I'm in the minority, but I couldn't stand BD's 2010 show.

      I watched BD 2010 one time. Will probably never watch it again. Ever.

  2. Under SOPA, you could get 5 years in prison for uploading a Michael Jackson song, or one year more than the doctor who killed him received.

      While the concept of punishing copyright violations is sound, the SOPA and PIPA bills are SO extreme, SO broadly-worded, and SO over-reaching it would basically remove everyone's right to do anything online. Basically, under SOPA, small misdemeanor acts are turned into felonies, and the government can act against you WITHOUT due process.

      Will this just affect the US?

      Erm, yes, every country has their own laws.

  3. If the Blue Devils' visual package is so easy, why isn't your corps doing it?

      BC they think "fast drill" is better than a complete show with tons of variety.

  4. What is going on here? Reality doesn't make sense any more.

      I'd complain about that if I wasn't laughing so much.

  6. Such a gorgeous sound.

      Played that mallet part :P. Obviously a different arrangement and about 7 fewer horns.

  7. Does it bother anyone else that Lincoln's bowtie is crooked on the $5 bill?

      No? Just me? Well, I am a mental patient...

      Just you. I find it humorous.

  8. I used to be a productive member of society like you, then I took a Skyrim to the brain.

      Heh. I've spent the past several years immersed in Oblivion. Skyrim's a whole new ballgame. Quite a few changes to the game-play. Love them both, though.

  9. I used to march drum corps like you, then I took an arrow to the knee.

  10. Your corps sucks and will finish in Nth place, because of blah blah blah. I know what I'm talking about, I got a PhD in Talking Out My Butt from Jerk University.

  11. Did you hear about the appetizer served at the Indian restaurant? It was a naan-starter. (wokka wokka wokka!)

      My high school band director sat next to "Bud" in the Minnesota All State Band back in 1937.

      Went to Saturday night (Lutheran) church which starts at 5:30. Part way thru the sermon minister stopped and said "In case anyone is wondering it's 5 minutes to 6" and then continued. :-)

  14. Honesty is not always the best policy, but it's definitely the most fun to watch from a safe distance.

  16. Been watching DCI Stanford videos on YouTube and I just have to say it: this is the most visually boring Blue Devils' show in 20 years.

      I mean, they can play like WHOA and this should be an APD star of the summer... but that drill sucks. It just straight sucks. Modest tempi, tons of follow-the-leader and block movement, absolutely nothing attempted by the brass while playing. Just... wow.

  17. So, how was it determined that cats have such bad grammar?

      What, you don't speak fluent "Kitty Pidgin"?

  18. True Fact: a person swimming in the Atlantic Ocean off Long Island is further WEST than a swimmer in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of northern Chile.

      I'm ashamed to admit that I went on Google Earth to see that.

      LOL, saw it with family members at a party. Funny as Hades listening to "bad snap"... "no wait, bad hold"... "no wait, he screwed up". Not Ravens fans but live 80 miles north of Ball-mer.

  20. Bowled my lifetime best series at tonight's league!

      Did it while wearing a Phantom Regiment t-shirt, too. :-)

      Might as well, don't think they're making Twinkies anymore...

  22. Amazing statistic: we are only a 0.825 point swing away from the Blue Devils having won nine consecutive titles. They've won overall Visual on Finals night nine years in a row, and color guard on Finals night eight years in a row.

      In what has to be the second-best streak like that, Cavaliers were 3.075 from winning seven consecutive from 2000-2006.

  23. I love this time of year, with all the show announcements. Here's hoping for no Doldrum and Bugle Corps in 2011.

  24. Pun of the day: Did you hear Florida is pardoning Jim Morrison? Come on baby, right my prior.

  25. Headlines you'll never see, part II: "Charlie Sheen, 97, Dies of Natural Causes"
