I'm not a Kanye West fan, but this video is pretty awesome. Starring Wilkesboro, NC's own Zach Galifianakis.

More red hat high
Almost finished with Red Hat High week. Check out this Red Hat Magazine article for a better summary than I can provide.
Pretty cool experience. I learned a lot, and I think the students did as well. I hope I can put up some of the tracks they put together this week.
Trying to teach classes of any sort always wears me out. And this week was no exception. I think I need about 40 hours of sleep now.
11 bassists
Spinal Tap and every bassist in the known universe perform "Big Bottom"
Awesome.
red hat high
Just spent the morning teaching rising 9th graders how to do basic audio editing and drum machine programming using open source cools on linux machines. They took to it instantly. I need to revise my original curriculum, because I think they are going to blow though it in two days, instead of the week I planned.
And on that note, I could use a couple of instruments and other tools to help. In particular, I could use something like a POD, and an electric bass would be handy too. I have plenty of guitars, and midi controller keyboards.
I also need to find some way to rig up some sort of isolation booth. We had one setup last year, but don't have a good spot for one this year.
tin foil hat
I just saw a Harris Teeter commercial featuring Art Bell. Testing store brand tin foil hats. Thats a little weird.
