today is saturday 06 december 2003.

yes indeed, a rarity these days--blogs on consecutive days.

another pit bull attack in colorado gives the breed a bad name--i tell you the truth, pit bulls can be some of the nicest animals out there. my mom has a pit bull--kindest dog we ever had--or perhaps i should annoying . . . won't leave me alone for attention.

flu is running rampant in colorado. and no, i didn't get a flu shot. i just hope dr. guthrie (math prof at bju) is still right--no virus had better attack a mathematician.

talking about the other viruses--the one that can infect your pc--is it really true 1 in every 4 computers have a virus of a type?

holiday concerts season in full swing. thurs saw the evergreen children's chorale in center stage evergreen. not bad, but they did a lot of disney. closing number was a silent night processional--moving, simply moving.

friday was the cherry creek chorale at bethany lutheran church in englewood. not bad, either. the mockery of the twelve days of Christmas with "the twelve days after Chrstmas" was halfway funny.

today was the colorado children's chorale. this one wasn't even fair. benjamin britten's ceremony of candles was incredible--it's not fair they peform in boettcher hall. the processional takes on added dimension. and having someone like samuel lancaster partner and arrange for them is not fair also. and what other children's choir burns cds? yeah, i told myself no more buying Christmas cds--but this was an exception, and i must admit i'm glad i bought this one.
