Played soccer today. Yitka, Andrew, and Timmy were there too. The rest were an assorted bunch of everyone from 30 something townies to high schoolers to Oberlin professors. I am no good at it, but I had such a blast. I am doing it again on Sunday @ 6pm. I felt like such a bad ass walking in to the Fev in our athletic gear all sweaty and gross.
If you are at all interested in playing, please come. You don't actually have to be good.

Put iTunes on shuffle. Not sure if this is before your generation, but do any of you remember bewitched? Ya, they make up a fair amount of my memories of fourth grade.

Here are some lyrics to refresh your memory:
"Hey boy, sittin' in your tree, mommy always want you to come for tea.
Don't be shy; straighten up your tie; come down from your tree out in the sky
I wanna know, just what you do; is it very big, is their room for two?
I've got a house with windows and doors; I'll show you mine if you show me yours.....
...........
Play with the girls, play with the boys, do you ever get lonely playin' with your toys?"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLt_g3W57gs&feature=relatedYes, these are the lyrics we, or at least I, listened to as a child. Wow. No even subtle. Then again, I am pretty sure I never really thought about stuff like that in fourth grade. I was far more preoccupied with beating boys in basketball, beating girls in poker, and rolling my eyes at the dumb make-believe games my friends still wanted to play. I was a realist.
Random internet videos I find worthwhile:
long amusing rant about a pen in Jamaican Patois: (if you don't have patience for the whole thing, watch the first and last 30 seconds.)
