Thank you all who pitched in to get the ticket for Tom.

I thought you might want to see his reaction, so sam and i

tried to film some it--the result is not professional.

But really, thanks--and have fun tom and dawn!

Happy Birthday Mark

Here are some wishes from Hillsdale (at least, these are

the ones that could be shown publicly).

There they are mom, new glasses.

Broadstreet market now hosts outdoor concerts for locals. The band was good before they lost power.

Theo "Clancy" Harwood came up with a brilliant fundraising scheme for the Classical Honorary. Have people pay $1 to throw to sponge balls filled with paint at Classicists. It turns out people need to get rid of some aggression. We made $164. Thats 328 paint-filled-balls thrown at us. It also turns out that sponge balls filled with paint hurt a lot.

DANIELSON!!
Last night four of us went to see Danielson in Pontiac, MI. It was an incredible show.
All of their songs except one were from their old stuff.
Only about 30 people were there at the show so it was really personal.
The opener for danielson, cryptacize, played with
danielson so it ended up being a 7 person band, all
dressed amazingly in uniforms. Ah, wonderful

In the same venue, behind some doors, was a ObamaRama.
they were very loud.

The First Annual Homerathon
The Classics honorary decided to put on a 24 hour reading of Homer's Odyssey.
At the top of each hour, we wouldbegin another book for a whole day.
We started on Friday at 5:00 pm. The night was long, really long, but
a faithful few struggled through.

Sam listening at the second hour:

Matt waxing eloquently: probably about rosy fingered dawn

The night set on fast: here tom gave probably one of the best renditions
of Book 9 that I have ever heard. Here he is covering his eyes as he
reads for the blind Polyphemus.

From 1 to 3 am we had our largest crowd, about 26 people, all dressed up
in their halloween costums. Later on in the Homerathon it was usually
me, victoria and the reader set for the hour.

The Tree by Kendell

Dawn at Midnight:

Julie Robison struggled through: her voice went out

Poor Tom had to read the longest book of over 800 lines:

Unicycling! Liz's brother was fun to ride with.

Rugby! We still could not manage to get an opposing team to play us at home (they are all scared). So, the team had an inter-squad scrimmage. The Rucks and Scrums were miserable as ever but entertaining to watch. Dino the Bulgarian:

See Marks' face in there?

Not the greatest picture but for me it captures what you see when you are playing: agony and just bodies coming at you. No faces, just bodies.
