Say Huutajat

I'm having a beer at work. If my boss comes by I'm hoping he'll think it's apple juice. Serves Jason right for leaving Heineken in the fridge.

This week's news:
One> Finland, Finland, Finland. A NYT article about how they're classical-music crazy.
Even more exciting: Oulu, Finland has a Shouting Choir! Sound clips here. I was actually there last summer for a wedding; if I'd heard shouting, I would have followed it. (and the actual lyrics from Monty Python)

Two> Terri Schiavo's brain was way wasted. Is it sadder that:
a) was resuscitated in order to vegetate through the next 15 years,
b) this happened to her at age 26, or
c) I'm spreading this news.
