Not that I have much experience in the former; it's been about 11 years since the last school lunch I ate.

Yes, it's a bit of a pun. I'm not one to write TV reviews normally, but I felt it necessary today. I watched yesterday's Good Eats this morning after work, and I have a few critical observations to make.
I was listening to KMFA on my way to the grocery store tonight, and I heard something that blew me away. It was the UT Saxophone ensemble playing an arrangement of Bach's Toccata & Fugue in d minor. Now, that's one of the most impressive pipe organ pieces that I can think of, and it was being played by a bunch of saxophonists. Wow. if you can find a recording of this, I encourage you to listen to it, and be amazed.
just finished watching Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns. If's pretty good (with the striking exception of every single Syd Straw interview segment); I thoroughly recommend that you check it out; see the schedule for your local art theater for possible showtimes. If you're in Austin, it's playing at the Dobie Theater until the 7th.
And it'll be out on DVD some time this fall. I'm definitely gonna pre-order it as soon as I can. And fast-forward through all the Syd Straw interviews.
