...that Piano Man is starting to do research on a term paper that is worth 40% of his Jazz History grade, which just happens to be due in less than 10 hours (9:00 AM CST, Monday). Minimum of 15 pages and has to comply with MLA standards. My topic is on the Biography of Oscar Peterson. My ass is F*CKING TOAST!!!!! WHY DO I PROCRASTANATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


P.S. Please send sympathy, I'll keep you posted on progress.

Russ, havn't you used that one before?

Sympathy, HELL!!! Oscar it tops!

I have big hands. I can stretch for twelve keys. I play tenths and elevenths with decent articulation of the notes in between. Oscar is reputed to be able to span two fscking octaves. Rachmaninoff would have loved him!

One of my favorite all time videos (I wish I owned it, but I have only seen it on PBS) is a duet with him and Andre Previn. Yikes!

 

[Russ]

FrogDog,

Yeah, but we have new people since then.

Nice, I'm doing a book report, minimum of ten pages in MLA format, etc. Then I have to compare the book, A People's History of the United States, with my U.S. History textbook, all due tomorrow. I know I should not procrastinate, but it's just so hard not to..

 

[BiggieN]

i want to see you logged off of these forums unless you need research help. trust me on this. this is not the place to be when you need to do work.

FrogDog -- <<Russ, havn't you used that one before?>>

Of course he has. He failed the course three times.

Russ, Jazz Performance just so happens to be my major, and jazz history is no easy class. Although the paper is lightweight, most of the grade of the class is being able to identify players and songs that he plays. Given that we have about 500 people to memorize, its actually pretty hard, and a good ear is required. I was a Computer Engineer Major, but found it to be boring, so here I am. Don't know why I responed, oh wait, its becuase I am the MASTER OF PROCRASTANATION!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FrogDog]

So, Russ, are you implying that Jazz History is easy? Because I don't see underwater basket weaving being easy at all!

 

[somethingwitty]

good luck, dude

I guess I need to do my trig identities project that was due last week. I guess I will do it during Economics.

 

[DataFly]

Ouch. I've been in positions almost as bad and have come through. Caffine and sugar filled snacks are your best friend. Luckily for me, my school prevents teachers from assigning homework over Thanksgiving weekend.

I did, however, resolve to use this time to work on a huge paper of my own due Friday, but procrastination and these damned forums prevented that.:|

 

[Piano Man]

Page 1 is done!!

 

[prodigy]

What you doin on the forums??

Hey pianoman, I just started my computer law paper, it's also a 15 pager. I've got another 5 hours here at work to write it, but I'm up to 3 pages now. I started about 5 hours ago. We'll get through it, don't worry. Papers are the best when written under pressure. I've had almost 3 months to do this...

 

[BiggieN]

stop talking to us until you are totally finished with your paper.

Procrastination is like masturbation, you're only screwing yourself. (My old sig)

[FrogDog]

LOL!! Good one Windogg!!

 

[Regine]

Masturbation is more fun though

I've been procrastinating too much lately - this week is gonna be hell.

 

[Piano Man]

2 and half pages!!! I'm gaining speed !!! (and borrowing heavily from certain sources)

 

[Spoooon]

You spelled procrastinate wrong.

 

[judgejudy]

I'd say the day that you declared a Jazz Performance major, you screwed yourself.. not by procrastinating with this paper.

 

[Piano Man]

Thank God I'm using Word(spell check)!!!


3 pages!!!
