The Answer
Culture with a Side Order of Grits
Frank Murphy posts that the KSO, that's the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra to you heathens out there, is once again offering 50 pairs of tickets to bloggers who agree to attend and blog about a concert (I love the Third Brandenburg Concerto) without falling asleep, or failing that, without snoring.
Even if you think you don't like classical music, you should give this a try. There's an energy to a live performance that no recording can capture, and it's even more intense when you have dozens of musicians all working together to create one sound. While last year's program focused on American music, and contained some modern pieces, this year we get some old favorites including the Brandenburg Concerto #3, which is one of my favorites.
Come out and listen to something different.
BY the way, the first person who correctly identifies the artist and song from whence the post title came gets a prize.

Inconsistancy
Hollywood thinks Roman Polanski should be forgiven for his crimes but wants to keep punishing Mel Gibson for his.
How odd.

More on the Strike
Now that they aren't backed by a staff of 20 writers, I wonder just who will be funnier, Jay Leno or David Letterman? I'm betting on Letterman.
By the looks of things, the only show that won't be affected by the strike will be Saturday Night Live. Judging by the quality of the show, they haven't been using professional writers in years.
By the way, I have a question. Since the writers are all on strike, shouldn't their picket signs be blank?

There’s a Strike in Hollywood.
The writers for TV and motion pictures went on strike demanding more money for their work, which is odd, since their work mainly entails ripping off previous writers' ideas, plots, and characters.
Or did you think it took stroke of creative genius to write American Pie 6?
