| This is one of the best insights that I've read in a while. These alarmists have an agenda, and »truth« definitely isn't a part of it. They've even resorted to calling it »climate change« because they can't scare anyone with the other moniker.
The Dangers of Disputing Warming Orthodoxy

| In a recent survey carried out for a leading toiletries firm (Brut), Democrats from Detroit and Chicago have proved to be the most likely to have had sex in the shower!
In the survey, 86% of Detroit 's and Chicago's inner political circle residents (almost all of whom are registered Democrats) said that they have enjoyed sex in the shower.
The other 14% said they hadn't been to prison yet. | | comments: Leave a comment |

| The Greenville Symphony Orchestra ended the celebration of its 60th season with a perfomance of Mahler Symphony No. 2 (Resurrection)
The Greeville Chorale performed with the GSO, and the review from Saturday night's performance is here:
The Resurrection is a perfect finale for the GSOs 60th season
If I could quit my day job and sing full time, I certainly would. What fun this is!!! | | comments: Leave a comment |
| A Spiegel interview with former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger, in which he speaks about the current "difficult period in European history" -- being caught between the past role of nation-states and the not-yet-comfortable future role as members of a European Union -- and says that while the Bush administration made many mistakes, "right now, many Europeans [are hiding] behind the unpopularity of President Bush."

| On March 30, the Greenville Chorale is performing a concert titled: "Music for Life - Celebrated and Remembered". This will be a special concert of music of celebration and remembrance for those who have touched our life and are no longer with us. One of the pieces we are performing is "Sing Me to Heaven", by Daniel Gawthrop. It is simply divine!!
TEXT by Jane Griner
In my heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poets' gloss
Words alone are vain and vacant, and my heart is mute
In response to aching silence, memory summons half-heard voices
And my soul finds primal eloquence, and wraps me in song
If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby
If you would win my heart, sing me a love song
If you would mourn me and bring me to God,
sing me a requiem, sing me to Heaven
Touch in me all love and passion, pain and pleasure
Touch in me grief and comfort, love and passion, pain and pleasure
Sing me a lullaby, a love song, a requiem
Love me, comfort me, bring me to God
Sing me a love song, sing me to Heaven | | comments: Leave a comment |
| Barack Obama said today that he would confront Bill Clinton when Clinton is making statements that are NOT factually accurate!
Obama did not say how he would find time to run for President... | | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment |

| I'll be onstage HERE tonight. The venue is grand, and the concert is always a lot of fun. We do some sacred music, then turn to the secular portion where we get to let loose a little.
During the performance of "The 12 Days of Christmas", which is an audience-participation piece, the Chorale and Orchestra bring out various styles of headgear. I've always worn the traditional Red and White Santa's hat. But this morning, I bought the coolest new 'goofy' hat. It's a Christmas tree made out of a coiled spring (like a big pipe cleaner), complete with decorations and a star on top.
And yesterday was my last day in the office until January 2nd, so I'm pretty pumped about it all.
HO! HO! HO!
