Matt Wertz at Proclaim
Hooray for spring finally arriving! It was so nice out today, it got up to 55. The whole rest of the week is gonna be super-nice too, with highs around 60 (62 tomorrow!) and a chance of some thunderstorms (yay!) thrown in. The one downside of all this nice weather is that it's making it really hard for any of us to sit inside and study. All of us physics majors have been cooped up in Olin for so many months that we just have this uncontrollable urge to play frisbee as often as possible. :-) I suppose as long as we use it as just a 45-minute study break no more than twice a day we'll be okay, hehe.
Tonight at Proclaim they had Matt Wertz and David Barnes in concert up in Alumni Hall. They're fairly well known Christian musicians from Tennessee and Mississippi. It was a pretty good concert, about a couple hours long. I had never heard of either of them before, but I liked their stuff. I didn't have the money to buy a CD, but hopefully someone here on campus with iTunes will have it.
And then I have links to two kinda startling stories. The first is from Florida, where a 5-year old boy was caught sprinkling marijuana on his friend's lasagna in the elementary school cafeteria. It doesn't appear that the kid is really in trouble, but the school and police are investigating the parents, or trying to see if an older kid possibly gave him the bag to keep. But that would've been some interesting lasagna to eat, hehe. The second story is from Indiana, where a 4-year old boy brought $7500 worth of crack cocaine "rocks" to his Head Start program. The parents fled, and the police haven't found them yet, but again the kid isn't really in trouble. I guess not even preschool or elementary schools are immune against drugs.
Well, time to get back to studying. A little bit more tonight, and then major hit-the-books time tomorrow. I hate midterms.
