We didn't start the fire

As I have been reminded, it's my day for an It's Ac fact.  So I'm going to go overboard.

Everything in there.  :D  There ya go.

Song of the Day--May 18, 2009

Today, I get to combine two of my favorite things: good music and mythology. For those of you familiar with Arthurian legend, you will remember that Mordred is Arthur's son by his half-sister Morgauss. He is the one who is fated to bring the fall of Camelot. Morgauss is a bitter woman who is constantly after Arthur's throne. Now, against that backdrop, I present today's song of the day: "Mordred's Lullaby" by Heather Dale. Heather Dale's amazing vocals are hypnotic and bitter at the same time, making this a powerful song that invokes well the hatred, the passion, and the tragedy behind the legend. Unfortunately it doesn't mention the utter kick-ass magical powers of Morgauss, but I digress.

Listen to it (lyrics included in video):

We are(n't) the champions...

8th period Origins vs. Discrete kickball didn't go so hot. We (Origins) started off badly, with getting only one person on base before Discrete got 3 people out. Then they proceeded to go on a 6 point streak (through two rounds of kicking) before we finally came back with 3 points. Then we managed to end their kicking round very fast, leading into our best round yet, giving us 8 to 6. Then they came back with a final score of 9 to 8 (though some Discrete people insist that it was 10 to 8). God damnit.
