Monday Miscellaneous

Welcome to Monday Miscellaneous. On Friday night I found myself at Dobyns-Bennett High School for the band competition. Science Hill unveiled their show, which is based on the Wizard of Oz. A big crowd was on hand for the competition.
Science Hill came in second place to a band from Atlanta. The band's hard work really shows. If you would like to see the opening of the show, here it is. This video is about a minute and a half long.



Afterward, I ran home to watch the Gators lose to Auburn. There was much joy among Gator Haters--and there are many Gator Haters in my life. They never call to share in my joy. They only contact me in my pain. Such is life when your alma mater has enjoyed over a year of unprecedented success.

Auburn played great (as they always seem to do against the Gators) and should be congratulated for the win. I think the Gator's youth caught up with them, and will do so again next week in Death Valley vs. LSU. This picture is from the Gainesville Sun web site.

It was a good weekend. I especially enjoyed Sunday's 9:30 service. I mentioned the old, cheesy, Christian classic "He's Everything to Me" during the sermon. Jeff Miller decided to play the song during the offertory. Very funny for those of us who are old enough to remember that song.

Sorry about the Gators, my friend. I feel your pain -- the Ducks went down, too. Although it *was* to the #3 team in the country....

That, and no one here follows the Ducks, so nothing flicked my way -- especially with Pitt and Penn State both being less than bragable.
