Lazy, Heat-seeking Cat

This is the face of bad. Look at it carefully. Learn it.....avoid it.....loathe it.
He produces nothing. He lounges in front of the woodstove. He eats. He sleeps. He....well, you know.
The only time that he gets mobile is when someone is making something to eat. Then he is like a four-legged tornado. He is going to get some of what you are making. Then it's back to one of his lounging spots. He is despicable. He is a leach. He is a democat.

And ya'll think ya'll have it bad! I had to break out the snow blower!

Conference All-State

Back in the Spring Mason auditioned for the New York Conference All-State Band. He scored a 99 out of 100 points on his trombone solo. Thousands of high schoolers across the state audition for this band, and only about 155 are selected. He ended up being the principal third trombone.

He left Oswego Thursday and went to Rochester where he spent three days practicing for the big concert. The NY Conference All-State Symphonic Band performed in the Eastman Theater at the Eastman School of Music yesterday morning. They were absolutely amazing!!

This is Mason with our band director, Bill Palange. Bill is also a trombone player and has been giving Mason private lessons for years.
