I remember my times in Jazz band

Good times. Good, fun times. So if we're turning this into a jazz band then why are tubas being done with? I've played quiet a few songs with tuba in it, in fact, I had a whole concert in high school that had a tuba for the whole concert. But I've never heard of a harp being in a jazz band before.... BTW, every time I've done jazz band, I've played trombone, so I'm all for this.

Oh, and I'd like to thank everyone for the spread, cause it was pretty funny to see that happpen. Maybe again..... we'll see.

I need a doctor, I think.

So, ever since I got back from Texas, I've had this weird sinus thing going on. My nasal breathing is irregular and feels blocked most of the time (it's the annoying kind where the blockage shifts from nostril to nostril) and my ears feel plugged and pop a lot. I've tried just about everything, but it hasn't gone away. Maybe I will need to go see a doctor. Other than that, I feel pretty healthy. Maybe this is a mystery for House, MD...

Anyway, I would like to be the first in thanking Jon for his allegiance. I would like to make a further proposition. Let's make this into a Jazz band.

For so long I felt so homeless. Then along came Andrew and welcomed me into the trumpet section. I guess I'm an honorary member. And if I turn around and take points away from the trumpets later on in the game, I guess that makes me a dishonorary member. Well, for now, until I get a better offer, my loyalties lie with the

trunkets!

Always did like brass, I guess.

As for life being, good, well - it is. And I'm not just saying that because I've decided to start dating a lot more. I'm saying it because it's true. I'm not saying there aren't occasional challenges. But the overall scheme of things just can't be beat.

The End

Alrighty!

Take that!

Answer

Ok, I know that some of you have been continually asking whether its ok to do a move like: from trumpets to flute followed by from trombone to trumpet. Yes, this is legal considering that each move is just moving one point and not two seperate moves. You just can't undo exactly what the previous person did. Of course, you could always wait for someone else to post, then undo it; that's completely legal.

-Trumpets, + Trombones...obviously

I concur

Before I do a little more spreading, I'd just like to announce a compendium - a collection - a gathering - of videos, both embedded and linked from this blog and that of my former-co-worker-and-friend Duswoo. The new* blog can be found at:

Bag-O-Cool

If you have any cool videos, just email me, or post them here and I'll try to do another roundup later on.

Umm....I hope there are no hard feelings for this move. There were just too many thirteens.

Thirteens all around... almost

Next time I get a car I want one with as many extras as this puppy has.

And speaking of good times, I'm-a go do some work now, since I'm at work. Apropos, no?

Legalities

Actually, that is legal. Jon and I talked about this a couple of weeks ago. It is okay to favor one group or another by countering someone else's point increase or decrease. What's not allowed is to undo the previous move by simply reversing the points. In chess, when a piece is simply moved back and forth more than three times in successive turns, it results in a stalemate, regardless of the players' positions. What I understand is that we want to avoid the appearance of stalemate by not allowing even one move to be atomically undone. Atomically simply means a series of steps carried out as if it were one step.

Anyhow, that's my $.02.

Baby, this one's for you!

My lady played Sax. in high school. Some of you knew that, some of you did not. Either way, I've made my move.

Still wondering if this move is "legal" or not but I figured I'd get it in before the hammer was brought down upon us all.

later.

Just to clarify, did we ever decide if it was kosher to do the above move? John took from trumpets and gave to saxophones, I in turn, took from tubas and gave to trumpets. Thus, it is not undoing the previous move. Can I get an official ruling?

Take from the rich. Give to the poor.

And speaking of putting dates on your calendar, a very important one is coming up next month. On the twelfth day, to be exact. That's right, kiddies - the day you've all been waiting for: the band geeks blog's third birthday. And I quote:
