Someone came to my site by searching that. What is it? No, seriously. What is sexy hoom? All that I can think of is Ent porn, and frankly, that’s a bit on the frightening side.

Time is flying by so freaking quickly! I can’t believe it’s already October, and Thanksgiving is this weekend, and the first Wind Bag and Wellington Winds concerts are in a few weeks. I might die with all this stuff…Katrina wants me to play with the Cambridge Symphony for their concerts, too. And I’m not sure if I can handle it, much as I’d like to.

I have a new shaper tip! It’s a Mack tip, and it is making my life soooo much happier. My sides are no longer flappy! I have made (and Jim has made prettier) every reed that is currently in my case. I’m pretty happy about that; it means my reeds are getting better, and I can start taking full credit for my sound–once I stop having to take them to Jim so he can work his magic, of course.

I split, planed, and gouged a bunch of cane yesterday. Today I need to shape it and tie a bunch of blanks…and maybe start scraping on one. I also need to get cracking on my nonet. “Get cracking, Ren. Get CRACKING.”
In other news: Kristen sent me a full week’s worth of comics for y’all to enjoy, so there is a comic every day (except Sunday) this week! Excitement!

EDIT: Randy finally got around posting a blog about the Boston “Dream Girl” meetup. I was there!

Yep. I’m back. I promise! I have comics… and I finally coloured one!! That’s right! Ren’s shirt isn’t grey or black. It’s green. XKCD will just have to get over it. =D She will wear black for occasions, just for them.

So Moy! Why did you fall off the face of Obohemia?

Because. I don’t have a scanner, so I have to give them to Ren.

But… it’s October…

Yeah, I love October, too! I’m gonna be a pirate for halloween!! …not a ninja. *off topic a bit*

=D

So I am getting sick and tired of hearing this all over the place. I stopped listening to the radio so I can get away… but a certain employee last night (actually 2 of them) decided to play this.

I have a pet peeve when people will listen to a classical piece, but only the opening. Sometimes not even the entire opening, just the first two sentences. So this is what I’m hearing… the opening to a beautiful piano piece and when the intro is done, it repeats itself. Great. Techno? No. RAP. I’m not saying that Rap isn’t music, but they sure like to butcher classics like no other. I’m hearing it all the time now. Why? WHY? The text has nothing to do with anything, they just want a pre-composed “classy” sound underneath them so they don’t have to compose it. It’s so easy to put something on loop, you know.

It’s things like this that make people so impatient. They start to lack cultural knowledge and they only know what the media craps out into Canada. People can be so ignorant that they won’t investigate in a sound they like that some Rapper “borrowed”. They will hear that opening some day in a tv commercial and say “Hey! I know that! That Rapper did that!” but then they will hear it being continued (if we’re lucky) and just be confused waiting for the “beat” to come in. I’m not mad at the rappers as much as I am PISSED at the audience for being so ignorant.

Now, I agree with Ren that it is good to have it out there, because for some people, it’s all they really get. But I would settle if the original composers got more credit. For example: “50 Cent, featuring Vivaldi”

Anyways, sexy sexy Micheal Shanks calls me. (Daniel Jackson) Must go!
