Fantastic!!

Cutting the arts programs is the elevation of ignorance to an art form in our state....

It's very well known and documented that studies of the arts advances ALL other endeavors above and beyond the perceived "cost".  That's why we can't have that continue here!

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Love these sorts of vids. These kids are a bit older. Still.

Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

I love it.  Dumb down education, you fill prisons.  You fill prisons and you create a bunch of $12 an hour jobs to watch the uneducated criminals.

This folks, is the Oklahoma economy in a nutshell.

Well that and craptastic retail development.

Not too bad...  Sober is my favorite Tool song...would like to see those kids do that.


Your kids do anything artistic?  I have a mixed bag - I got nothing, but most of the kids are loaded with talent.  In large part thanks to the public schools - band, art class, etc!!

Sober, such a complex song.  As a drummer, it's incredibly nuanced.  Toughest song I ever had to try and cover.
