Since my school isn't cool enough to have actual bells that ring on the hour, at one point in time they went and purchased various recordings of songs played out in bells which are blasted from rooftop speakers from one building at the top of the hour.

Now, you would think that they would try to find more traditional songs that are normally played by bells as a substitute, but whoever is in charge of programming it found and plays bell versions of the Imperial March and the Star Wars main theme on a semi-regular basis. I think these two song choices makes up for any lack of coolness of my school not having actual bells.

Anyone else have wacky and quirky going-ons at their university or school or know of nearby schools that do? Also, we need more ideas and volunteers for the BrickFair mosaic project. We're closing in on 150 days and we'd like to start solidifying plans for it very soon.

(and 158 days until BrickFair!!!)
