Here is my idea for a TV network, and I'm copyrighting it so if any channel like that comes on I better be getting royalties.
A channel that shows old Nick shows before 1998; shows like You Can't Do That On Television, Salute Your Shorts, Alex Mack, Welcome Freshman, the first and second generation of Nicktoons like Doug, Rugrats, Ren & Stimpy, Rocko, and The Angry Beavers, old game shows like Nick Arcade and Wild and Crazy Kids, Hey Dude, Roundhouse, even Mr. Wizard.
Now that's not enough. Also we must show retro 80s Saturday Morning cartoons like Denver The last Dinosaur, Garfield and Friends, My Pet Monster, Smurfs, Snorks, maybe even Alvin and the Chipmunks, etc. and also shows like Fraggle Rock and stuff. You know, the good stuff we grew up with that we miss today and no one shows it because they would rather show crap like Spongebob (the worst show ever made).

Random Thought #1842
I was just thinking about that relaxation thing that was on the plane to England. There was newage music playing in the background and this british guy saying "Re LAHHHHX". It was so funny.
Mullets
Wow what a crazy night. After Intervarsity we were crazy enough especially Steph and me tackling each other and stuff like that. It was crazy. Then a group of about 7 or 8 of us all headed to Weber's apartment and we played poker. That was CRAZY too. Before we left I don't know how we got to talking about mullets but I mentioned that I had a mullet in 3rd grade and they called me "Mullet Man" for the rest of the night; and Steph kept shooting this suction dart gun thing at me. I almost won poker but Heather won and she barely won; she came back from almost nothing. It was a lot of fun. Wild and obnoxious.
Oh and I'm definately going to see Five Iron Frenzy here at Millikin on the 14th. Weber is one of their biggest fans as is Josh (Weber's actually going to their last show in Colorado), but Josh said "Spence here's your song" and played "The Phantom Mullet" for me. I probably shouldn't have cut my hair last week.

My life is boring
There isn't anything to talk about! I went to class. Whoopee. Oh yeah no guy emailed me back about observing their lessons, except two that said theirs were at times during times I specifically stated in the emails I sent out over announcements that I had classes during. Fun times; I'll lose points on the journal again. No HUGE deal, since I have been doing well in vocal ped. That's vocal pedagogy for you non-music ed majors out there. If you need help on knowing what the parts of the larynx are, all you premed students out there and stuff, just talk to me and I can talk about the arytenoids all day.

A Unique Situation has been brought upon me...
Brian, Tom, and Mitch said I could be their fourth guy for the Woods if this guy doesn't decide to room with them. Which would be nice, but the only things are that I know they are nice guys but that's about it; I don't know them EXTREMEMLY well, and in my opinion it's so early to decide something like this, and also I'm not sure if I want to do this right away or wait until I talk to some music ed people to maybe room with them. I'd have to talk to some people.
Doing the same assignment twice SUCKS.
Warning, swearing and ranting ahead. For those who aren't used to me swearing and stuff and don't want to read on, I'll give you the G rated version. The computer wouldn't let me do anything in the MIDI lab, so I got really mad. For more specific and raw details, READ ON...
OK I am really pissed off right now. I went to the MIDI lab about 8:30 to do my orchestration assignement, which is orchestrating a piano piece into a wind quartet. It took me a while to find a computer with hyperscribe working but I finally did. So, I am using Finale and I try hyperscribe on this computer and it doesn't work as well as I thought so I thought ok I may as well hand click it in, no big deal. I spend about two hours doing that, maybe a little more, from about 9-11ish or so. I get done, and go to print it. No printing happens. So I ask the guy and he says send it to the faculty computer. I find I am unable to do so because timbuktu is not installed or something on this particular computer. I'm thinking "What is going on here?" So I try to email it to myself through groupwise. The computer freezes (mind you the computer froze about 3 times when I tried to connect to the internet earlier). So I'm about to scream at this thing. I tried both Netscape and IE and both froze the computer. I found Timbuktu in the harddrive but it wasn't connected to any of the other computers. So I got stuck with a piece of SHIT computer. I was ready to throw that piece of shit ass out of the window. It was very hard for me to stay calm. I'm venting right now about that ghetto ass piece of shit computer that wouldn't do shit because it is fucking dumb. Needless to say I am LIVID right now about the whole situation because now I have to redo everything BY HAND or something; I could try using finale notepad on this computer maybe I'll do that. But still I have to do it again. It wasn't easy. And I'm PISSED AT COMPUTER 19. MILLIKIN PEOPLE WHO USE THE MIDI LAB. DO NOT USE COMPUTER 19. IT IS A GHETTO LAME ASS PIECE OF SHIT COMPUTER THAT WILL DO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU WANT IT TO DO BECAUSE IT'S A RETARDED MORON.
Thank you for putting up with my lewd comments.
