eerie sitting here in my deserted classroom, waiting for occasional students to come by for their grades, saying goodbye, listening to "Sugar Mountain."
Have your students seen the 10@10 Clubhouse?  Just curious.

If it ain't on myspace, it doesn't exist!

And I can think of 50 Beatles songs I prefer to "Hey Jude".

MASTERFUL segue of "Hey Jude" into "It's a Beautiful Morning."

I was somewhat surprised to hear a student singing along with it!

I can't buy the line that the Beatles (yay) made "Hey Jude" so long just to beat "MacArthur Park."

I dunno, makes sense to me -- why else would it just go on and on like that? Drugs?
