Kopaka's Ice Engineering

I played utility low clarinet (B flat Bass, E flat Contralto, and BB flat Contrabass) in high school, and have played treble clef baritone in college, and every year since 1997 for TubaChristmas. Except 2002: I was on the road that year.

Yay... you guys aren't shunning me for my horrible revelation! *dance of acceptance*

Nah, it's not really a shunnable offense until you reach the age of 34, as opposed to 17. Mid 30's, then we'd worry about you.

Also, should be careful about mentioning Cloud's awesomeness in a post about KIE's awesomeness. Cuz if their awesomeness collided, it would blow up the universe....

*waves hands around*

And then I'll translate it from ASL into English, like I did then:

"I'm not awesome. Only God is awesome; I'm just Byron."

Though, I did see this as funny-worth-a-link, even if it's not FF:

That bread thing is totaly ridiculous.

 

1. So are the ones who stop them.

2. I'm pretty sure even the above average children eat bread.

3. In the 18th century, there weren't exsactly health facilities called hospitals.

4. Like anyone would know that.

5. But we don't suffocate! And they spelled Moose wrong!

6. Like that could even be proven.

7. Well you can't just drink water for the rest of your life.

8. Butter, jelly and peanut butter are not hard foods. And all nuts are cold.

9. Bread gets digested, it doesn't become part of your bodily substance.

10. Duh!

11. That makes absolutely no sense. Bread is cooled afterwards. And it's not like someone's going to jump into an oven at that temperature.

12. If this was true, then apparently, this person must have eaten bread.

 

Did you actually get this in your inbox?

 

Amazing that the saying still holds true: "There are lies, there are dang lies, and then there are statistics."

Draft: I don't have any names, but I do keep an eye out for ball players from my alma mater: McNeese State University. The current player of note in the majors is Tribe first baseman Ben Broussard (IF - CLE), although a Cowboy pitcher was taken in the first round of last year's draft.

And baseball play-by-play men wonder why the MLB draft doesn't have the coverage that the NFL & NBA get: it's 40 someodd rounds long! No casual fan has that kind of attention span!

And then, the shrubberries...

Life of Brian is another one of note, but it must be viewed with hearty humor: if you're laughing already, prepare to bust a gut. But if you're not, it's just not as funny as it's billed.

So you're an Astros fan......I live in St. Louis. And am thus a Cardinals supporter.........yeah.

Anyway, I have sympathy for your commuting situation. Up in good old MO, things can get pretty congested at 7:15 (that's when I leave for school). Probably nothing compared to you, though.

Cars lose value according to their use and mileage: the more a vehicle is driven, the more wear and tear and the less it is worth.

I bought a new car on March 30, and today the odometer will reach 10,000 miles on the way home from work.

10,000 miles is usually what a car gets in a year, and I've done it in 3 days shy of 10 weeks.

Believe you me, I'm ready to move back.
