Yay for Grace.
Best of luck, msbelle.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
the thing about this storm was that there was SO MUCH water standing around by yesterday afternoon, that my guess is a lot of places have a foot of snow over a sheet of fairly thick ice depending on how cold it got last night.
I'm not sure anything froze solid - my commute was mainly very wet snow over a layer of last night's slush.
Did I mention my boots ceased to be waterproof shortly after our LAST blizzard?
WANT. SPRING. NOW.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Yeah Amy, I am going to have to do something like that. It's just explaining the reality of mac to people - he has in the past run away, he might get violent - hard to have that conversation right off the bat which is why I have had the two babysitters with him for so long while I am also home. Now he knows them and there is a level of trust.
Feh, I am not going to figure it out in a day, and certainly not before I get some coffee. must shower and head out for some D&D.

Romeo & Juliet, Paganini's Eighteenth Variation and Piano Concerto No. 2, Ave Maria, Firebird, Swan Lake, American in Paris and/or Rhapsody in Blue. Those are also some of the worst offenders along with the aforementioned selections.
I could get behind this plan, although I do have a soft spot for Swan Lake.

I wish you luck, msbelle -- I know this isn't easy.

Are they still restricted to classical music?

Good luck finding a good solution, msbelle.
Overheard just now: Female Student #1 to Female Student #2, sadly: "I just don't know why David isn't buying me better gifts now that he has more disposable income." FS#2, sincerely: "I know you two are meant to be together. You should tell him."
Also, Dear Student who never saw the documents to which she has cited: No, you didn't. Next question!

I don't think so, because Kim Yu-na danced to James Bond in her short program. But I think only the ice dancers can have vocals.

Are they still restricted to classical music?
No, they're not and more's the pity. It's just a case of people going for the familiar since the unfamiliar tends to be met with deep suspicion in ice skating. When Torvill and Dean used "Bolero" it was practically considered heresy because they were using a piece of music that maintained one rhythm and tempo throughout, depending solely on the intensity of the music and their own movements to build the emotion and show their skating prowess and even tell a story. Freaked people right the hell out.
