Plug for the Arts
If you’re looking for a cultural way to spend this Sunday evening, consider heading to Walnut Creek for the Contra Costa Wind Symphony’s “Cool Hot Sounds of South America” concert. I play trumpet in the group.
The concert features Paraguayan harpist & violinist Carlos Reyes. Let me tell you, he is worth hearing. The CCWS will perform other pieces from South America or inspired by its peoples & music: Argentina, Brazil, the Andes, and the Caribbean.
The performance is at 8pm at the Lesher Center for the Arts (925-943-SHOW for tix). It’s close to BART & there are plenty of restaurants nearby. Since it’s Walnut Creek, parking is cheap.
If case you were wondering, here’s how this relates to this Blog: 0Ls, when you come to law school, do not give up your extracurricular activities. Indeed, maintaining or discovering a hobby that keeps you doing interesting things and meeting new people is good for you, as is getting away from Berkeley frequently.

speaking of the arts, a moment for the great K.V.:
"Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand" Kurt Vonnegut
"Just because some of us can read and write and do a little math, that doesn't mean we deserve to conquer the Universe."
Kurt Vonnegut, 'Hocus Pocus' 1990
"Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile!"
Kurt Vonnegut
and so on, and so on...
goodbye, friend.
can we start a thread about Fall 07 classes? (which, predictably, blow)
