Seriously...it was.
For real.
Hey, I'm just doing my part to help educate the masses. :D Ranch dressing, that's the other key. Of course, almost everything is better with homemade ranch dressing. Not the bottled stuff - the Hidden Valley mix that you make fresh. Ymmm ... ranch dressing. :D
I was going to post more, but will have to stop now so that I can laugh at my status. How ideal to rest on 666 at Halloween!
Middle C is C5. Why can't they just break down and put them in the same clef? What I play depends on the song and how many ringers we have. Unfortunately, the number of ringers fluctuates and often is not enough. We have 5 octaves and haven't been able to ring them all in a few years. For Carol of the Bells, I'm playing A5 and we threw in a C4 for fun - very boring part. Other songs I have played F6 through C7.
Wilson - thank you for my chuckle this morning.
For real. :)
:eek: BOO! :eek:
Happy Halloween, everyone! :D
So what am I supposed to say about the one person in the department who dresses up for Halloween?
At what age is it very uncool for a person to wear a costume?
Cheers,

1. Why didn't I think of that?
2. Halloween should bring the kid out in all of us. I'd dress up, but it won't look very professional considering who I work for. Had I known this during the interview, I might have turned the job down. Okay, not really.
I am wearing my Halloween sweater, which happens to have a lot of Duke blue incorporated in it, and my Duke blue pumpkin is on my desk full of candy.
I've played everything from F4 up to B5 at various times. This is the 2nd time I've been stuck with the split part, and it's annoying as all get-out. The director's response is that I should be able to handle it because I play piano.
Carol of the Bells is loads of fun and can be quite evil. My old choir played that last year, and I was playing air bells all the time to practice. I had a pretty key part of the melody, and timing was a bit tricky.
Still too early, the website notes that they are still accepting applications, while received applications are under review. I take this to mean they haven't gotten as many applicants as they want, given that the listing was poster in mid-September.Quote:

Good, clean, punny geek humor.
I like those costumes. They would fit with some that I have been reading about - I'm not clever enough to think of them on my own. A few samples:
Tape a quarter on your back - You're a Quarterback. If you tape a dollar to each ear as well, you are the Buccaneer's Quarterback.
If you are into math, cut out a pumpkin shape and write 3.14159265358979323846 on it. Tape it on your shirt and you are Pumpkin
Pi(e).
It you are part of a group, all of you dress in green - You're Gang Green.
Have a great day.
Oh criminey! I just posted a whole new thread on Halloween, of course before reading the latest on this thread. I wish someone would go and delete that other thread (Mods: a serious hint here!! lol) and I'll just post the stuff here...

What is/was your candy code when you were just a little Dukemeister or Dukette?
Anyone have any great stories of their youth in treat or treating?
And by the way, Happy Halloween everyone! Hope your parties are hopping, your candy bags full and your hangovers easy!
