Ok – does my second $25 in Heidi’s name count?
Back for a bit—I think NTCNTC’s fever has returned. He woke me up to tell me. Of course, he falls right back asleep, but….
I also would like to point out that you’re sounding quite good—much better than you were at this point last time. You don’t sound quite ready to do the 3 am movie quiz yet. So you can make it the 5 am movie quiz.
We got answers:
Hoe-Down – Aaron Copland (Bet)
Sabre Dance – Aram Khachaturian (Bet, Stennie)
Hungarian Rhapsody – Franz Liszt (Bet)
Dance Of The Hours – Amilcare Ponchielli (stump)
Carmen Suite #1 (Les Toreadores) – Georges Bizet (Bet, Stennie)
Final score:
Stennie: 19
Bet: 26
Bet wins, so therefore she may now go to bed.
