My best friends are the SPK

Thats short for sour patch kids. I love those things. They are a gift. A beautiful invention. But also my demise. I spend all my monies on them. Mom said I can only eat them after I accomplish something. However I decided that me staying sane is an accomplishment so I should get to eat them all the time right? Righto. Moving on. Cool news. On either Friday or Saturday some lady went to the Barbershop festival and really enjoyed my quartet. She contacted Brother Kempton (one of our vocal staff) because supposedly he is in her ward. Anyway she asked if our group would provide 15 to 20 minutes of entertainment at their ward Cub Scout banquet on Feb. 18. Of course we said yes. That means we have to brush up on Mr. Sandman from last year and have that ready to go. Because we don't have that much music prepared we asked one of our fellow barbershoppers to get his quartet and come along with us. I think it should be grand. Hmmmmmm what else. This week has had gnarly weather. Today was -30 with the wind chill and -22 without. Thats Rexburg for ya. And it has been snowing non-stop all day. Pitiful. Every school is shut in the district except ours obviously. Today I learned why...and I will share. Below -18 the diesel fuel in the buses congeals so the buses won't start and they can't get the kiddies to school. Interesante. I vote that instead of walking all college students must ride buses. OH! I got a letter from my friend Dano yesterday. He's on his mission in Sierra Leone Africa. Neat. He wrote it on 12/21 and I just now got it. Thats real snail mail. Truely. I bet in Africa they have snails as big as some peoples heads and they strap mail to their shells and send them across the barren desert landscape. Forging a slimey trail. I totally feel like time is working against me. I have to go now and do more stinking work. Before I forget though I will put up a link to our other video. It is the same night just a different angle. When Laurel puts up hers I will link those too. cool Namaste.
