Hmmmmm....just had time to check out the "State Of The Spoiling" over at Survivor Blows.

An interest take on the IC. Notice in this picture (which I also have posted up above) that the boxes behind the players on the tables are long.
1
The SOTS states that there are probably 3 different sections to the boxes, meaning that each player has 3 keys in their hands when they start the race based on answering correctly or incorrectly the questions that are in the boxes. Since the questions are based on Chinese history/lore, PG would have an advantage....and even if Todd or Erik is ahead in the race, if they have the wrong keys...they will not win. And, if PG wins....that makes even more sense why Erik goes this week.

So, based on who's ahead pics....Todd
Based on the race and the keys theory .... PG
Which one wins........will see tomorrow night.

(LOL) I just found something I think is funny!

Over at TDT, if you run your cursor over the picture to the left of who gets the boot, you get a picture of Erik. The title of the picture says Erik and I was expecting this.

But, if you run your cursor over the picture to the left of the IC you get a picture of Todd, but the title of the picture says Todd in 2nd place. I thought the picture was suppose to be Todd ahead of everybody else, so TDT was thinking 2nd place.

Very Interesting....and very non-commital, or maybe not. (LOL)

Thanks for the concern! Dovez!
T's the season for musician..... :-)
Reheasals, performances, Mass, Ecummanicle(sp?) services, more Mass, more rehearsals.... Next life I will focus on one instrument or singing only. Right now I play French Horn in the (Community)Orchestra and Band, Organ and piano in Church and JrHi and singing and teaching Chrsitmas shindings all over the place.

Ginger is doing a wonderful job. I enjoy reading her collection rather than worry about what from my *group* I could share with you all. Palau any one?

Oh My Goodness, Chy. I can't believe we also have music in common. I majored in woodwind, minored in piano. Have done band, orchestra, Little Theatre, and directing original skits I write all my life. Taught piano, woodwind and brass before my daughter was born. Music and Survivor....who would have known. Good Luck through the Holidays.

I majored in bassoon in college and also play oboe and English Horn. Or at least I used to. Unfortunately I cannot afford to buy myself one now that I'm older and would truly enjoy relearning how to play.

I play piano enough to get by while learning a song and up until about a month ago could sing reasonably well.

Darn allergies.

I had to laugh at Denise saying that voting for Erik was probably her biggest mistake in the game! Her biggest mistake was not telling her pal James that he was going to blindsided! Tehn she would have enlisted PG and Erik in the plot.They can count too! That would have gotten Todd voted out, and leave four - iocluding Denise - again two!

Tnt, you're so right!
Denise could've been sitting pretty at third or second.
Darn James had picked his alliance early though. There's really no telling. If Denise did warn James, and say "... let's gather the two FLs to vote Todd/Amamnda/Court off"... James might even tell on denise! He mistrusted T/A/C too much.

O.M.Goodness! Ginger and Rox! We have a trio for sure! Too bad we're in three different corners of this land. We need bassoon, oboe, clarinet and trumpet in our Community orchestra! We even laon those specific instruments. (Right now we get ringers from Ithaca College or Binghamton Symphony.)

Ginger, (I gave U of H a year before I went to NYC... Dated a Violinist from Dallas..) heheh..
Talk to people in the community or State colleges. Some times they might have instruments sitting around. Our Music Chair used to buy one good instrument each year with certain endow,ents...

HS kids around here rent theirs for a little money each semester. Seems like DD paid $100/sem. for trumpet before she gave up and no refund for me...

Some of my French Horn buddies had picked up good deals on eBay, also. I am saving for a better violin for my other daughter who's going to major in Music Ed. come September. I'm really worried for her. "There're as many violin/piano players as ther're stars in sky." That was why I'd chosen Horn rather than staying with piano.

Sorry to go so OT, but it's Dovez's and Sea's fault! :-)

Chy ... in case you check back in here.

In high school, besides playing 1st chair clarinet in band, I played alto and tenor sax and was a good sight-reader. The professional dance bands were made up of all men (a sign of the times in the late 50's) and I used to get called a whole bunch to sub. Because I was young, my parents had to attend to chaperone me and they loved to dance (especially jitterbug), so they got to go to the Country Club and different Lodges free. Fun time for me to remember today.

The weird part is that I taught piano, woodwind and brass. The two things I did not teach were strings and percussion. So, what is my nephew proficient in that he is getting scholarship offers for next year from various colleges? ... percussion (great on the marimba). And what did my oldest grandson show interest in ... guitar and drums. My only hope is my youngest grandson who shows interest in the piano and sings beautifully. The granddaughter is less than 3 ... too soon to tell ... but, she does play "TOYS"!!!

As long as no one minds....
Yeah, credit goes to Dovez and Sea! :-)

Ginger! It's never too soon to tell!
From 2 y.o. my #2 daughter was the one who would keep a bunch of older kids singing on key even though she did not have but one or two words pronounced correctly in either Chinese or American songs!

Said daughter picked violin exactly because that's the one instrument really foreign to me. I'd spent some time on Cello and some Chinese instruments. Our chair person(YoYo's father!) thought it was a great idea to make Brass major take up strings, Western instrumental majors was required to study a Chinese instrument or two, and vise versa. Woodwinds and Chinese Opera were the two I wish I bothered.

But whatever I know did win me prizes and took me over seas a lot. 25 cities in 52 days was the trip here in 1976, to help celebrate our young friend's Bicentennial! The year before that was Edingburg's music festival. We'd played for Mdm. Chiang's Tea party for Saudi Prince, PMs & Presidents alike.

My brother just send me some CDs of re-collections(you know what I'm talking about) of things I've done in my Studio musician days. I've played horn and sang as harmony angels for some big skinny singer. I really miss those days when I just had to play music all day(that means six hours only in the Studio term) and just gave my mom the pay check and let her take care of everything else for me! She used to laugh at me about how my numbers only go up to 8, and that'll be why I couldn't take care of my money...

I'm a real good sight reader as well. Was placed in Fourth year class as a Freshman. They'd made suggestions for me to take conducting and Education, butI was too full of myself. Big regrets there. But around here, Shhh, when ever they need non-union musician, I'd be called. (I'm not paying dues only because I don't drive and there's too many cities and areas to cover here in Central NY.)

WOW Chy....sounds like you have taken your music to the Moon and back. Great job.

I wanted to be a band director at a high school, and started that way in college, but changed my major away from Music Education to just Music Major so I could study more horns. Took flute, trombone and trumpet my second year along with the major of clarinet and minor of piano. Lots and lots of hours practicing at the music hall (LOL).

Wouldn't give anything for all the years I have had with music this, that or the other. I wound up making my living in Aerospace (can you believe that???) and Hurricane Katrina took my piano. This coming Thursday is my original musical skit called "Santa's Birthday" for my women's club. About 130 women will attend, and I have 7 ladies from the club participating. This will be my 6th year doing this. Last year I did a skit of "A Christmas Carol" and the year before the big Hurricane I did a 1950's skit, and prior to that was "Little Drummer Boy".

Lots and lots of fun...........

Wow Ginger!
The first day I tried on a tuba, I had to play the 1st Horn on Mahler's Fifth. The Obligato part was so difficult to play with "Fat Lips"! That's basically why I gave up on being a Music Ed/ Performance Double Major. I regret it till this day. But my Mom said "... Those Blue-eyes know what they want from you!" (She'd sent me to Catholics scholol for the scholarship they'd offered me to be music major. but none of my family's are into Catholics.)

I wish I'd have all the "freedom" you do!
Being a Catholic, I'm not even suppose to sing any Christmas Carols until Christmas Eve!

I'm teaching them "Gesu Banbino" since it's an Italian church(St. Antonio's ) and I'm into Latin...
