Amy and I - had a really great time yesterday at Two Left Feet Dance Studio, - learning more about how to dance the Carolina Shag in preparation for - our wedding (which is in less than 20 days)! An enormous swing band is - going to play all of our favorites from the brass band/swing era, and - one of the easiest dances to do to that music is the Shag. I wrote a - paper on the Shag a few years ago for school but never actually learned - how to do it. The steps are simple for us to remember and it's easy - enough to add flair or mix it up so we look like we know what we're - doing during our first dance. - </p> - - <p> - We also got out to see the new Lion King remake and I can honestly say - it was worth it. If anyone's a Lion King purist, it's Amy. It's easily - been her favorite movie since she was a toddler, and to see it - tastefully redone almost 25 years after it was first released was - thoroughly enjoyable. There were minor alterations to literal sentences - in the script that all added some context to things that were always - kind of assumed in the original (clarification on Scar's backstory, - etc.). I did however feel like they were trying to throw Beyonce lines - the way a middle-schooler tries to turn a 500-word paper into a 700-word - paper. Regardless, it's definitely re-living the classic, not re-hashing - it. - </p> - </article> - </body> -</html> diff --git a/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html b/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html deleted file mode 100644 index 6edd6ef..0000000 --- a/posts/life/2019-07-28-i-finally-found-a-drink-i-like.html +++ /dev/null @@ -1,86 +0,0 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html> -<html> - <head> - <link rel="stylesheet" href="/includes/stylesheet.css" /> - <meta charset="utf-8" /> - <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" /> - <meta - property="og:description" - content="The World Wide Web pages of Adam Carpenter" - /> - <meta property="og:image" content="https://nextcloud.53hor.net/index.php/s/Nx9e7iHbw4t99wo/preview" /> - <meta property="og:site_name" content="53hor.net" /> - <meta property="og:title" content="Finally Found a Drink I Like" /> - <meta property="og:type" content="website" /> - <meta property="og:url" content="https://www.53hor.net" /> - <title>53hornet ➙ Finally Found a Drink I Like</title> - </head> - - <body> - <nav> - <ul> - <li> - <a href="/"> - <img src="/includes/icons/home-roof.svg" /> - Home - </a> - </li> - <li> - <a href="/info.html"> - <img src="/includes/icons/information-variant.svg" /> - Info - </a> - </li> - <li> - <a href="https://git.53hor.net"> - <img src="/includes/icons/git.svg" /> - Repos - </a> - </li> - <li> - <a href="/hosted.html"> - <img src="/includes/icons/desktop-tower.svg" /> - Hosted - </a> - </li> - <li> - <a type="application/rss+xml" href="/rss.xml"> - <img src="/includes/icons/rss.svg" /> - RSS - </a> - </li> - </ul> - </nav> - - <article> - <h1>Finally Found a Drink I Like</h1> - <p> - Anyone who knows me even slightly well probably knows that I don't - drink.

She's been working hard with clients - all over Hampton Roads, from college students all the way to - first-graders. Business was booming before schools closed but I know - she'll bring it back once things have returned to normal again. No - worries though, she's spending this time helping William and Mary handle - remote operations and students in need.

Cool cars, alcohol, mansions, hit - men, also dames. Yet more good stuff. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Lowry, Lois. <em>The Giver</em> - <p> - Second time I got to read this. Fantastic book just the same as - before. Movie was totally carried by the fact that Jeff Bridges is - the Giver. Super thought-provoking too. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Rowling, J.K. - <em - >Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber - of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter - and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly - Hallows</em - > - <p> - Yep, all of them. I've read some of them multiple times but this was - the first time I read them all to completion myself. My dad used to - read them to me, so I only "listened" to the last couple. Always - great, always better than the movies. And I pick up more and more - forward- and backward-looking references when I read them in a row. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Miller, Rand, Miller, Robyn, Miller, David. - <em>Myst: The Book of Atrus, Myst: The Book of Ti'ana</em> - <p> - The great first two books in the Myst novel series. My favorite is - the second, it gives all of the meat-and-potatoes lore behind the - D'ni, The Art, and The Fall that I always wanted. The first is good - too, and I recommend book-and-game nerds read - <em>Myst: The Book of Atrus</em> after playing Myst: Masterpiece - Edition and before playing Riven: The Sequel to Myst. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Miller, Rand. <em>Myst: The Book of D'ni</em> - <p> - Probably my least favorite of the three Myst novels. It's - fascinating and has lots of dark themes like enslavement. I - recommend reading this one after Riven and before Myst III: Exile. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Paulsen, Gary. <em>Hatchet</em> - <p> - The last time I read this was probably in the sixth grade, and it - was one of the few books I was really glued to then. It's still a - great story about survival, nature, getting mauled by moose, etc. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Grisham, John. <em>Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer</em> - <p> - Also a re-read for me. I kind of sort of wanted to be a lawyer - growing up and this book was the "I can do it too!" book. It's still - a good crime, evidence, trial style lawyer book. I need to read the - sequels. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Wells, H.G. - <em>The Time Machine, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man</em> - <p> - These are three of my favorite H.G. Wells novels. - <em>The Time Machine</em> is super weird though and now that I'm - re-reading it I'm picking up on a ton of Communist undertones. - <em>Dr. Moreau</em> is fantastic. I love all books that take place - on a desert island and this one really creeps me out with the - doctor's surgically-humanized animals. <em>Invisible Man</em> is so - short it's worth reading on a weekend just to know what it's about - (spoiler: a man who is invisible). - </p> - </li> - <li> - Stevenson, Robert Louis. <em>Treasure Island</em> - <p> - Dude, I watched Treasure Planet when I was a kid and I was really - into it for like a month. Now I finally got to read the real thing - and there's a reason why this is one of those perfect examples of - literature. It's the - <em>absolute perfect, truly American story</em> - about pirates, treasure, and sailing ships. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Dick, Harold G. - <em - >The Golden Age of the Great Passenger Airships: Graf Zeppelin and - Hindenburg</em - > - <p> - I'm a huge rigid airship junkie. They're freaking awesome, I wish - they were still around. I hate flying, and not because of the act of - being in the air but because airships make it seem more comfortable, - luxurious, and adventurous than a half a bag of peanuts, motion - sickness, and recycled oxygen. If you're at all interested in - Zeppelins and you can only read one book, this is the - <em>only</em> book worth reading. It chronicles the author's - experiences actually flying on and operating Graf Zeppelin and - Hindenburg, their flight logs, how they worked, how they were flown, - and the history behind their creation and demise. It's awesome. - </p> - </li> - <li> - Brown, Dan. <em>Digital Fortress</em> - <p> - Great story, I actually listened to this audiobook while painting - our house right around the start of 2020. It's an awesome story with - an intelligent, sleuthy programmer and her globe-trotting professor - significant other tracking down clues.

He was born blind and had to have surgery to - be able to distinguish shapes and objects. Did that stop him from - playing the one instrument that literally requires you to distinguish - hundreds and hundreds of small objects from each other? Nope, he just - did it (and he learned from Cesar Franck, another great organist). - </p> - - <p> - In 1906 he got hit by a car and the doctors said they might have to - amputate his leg. Did you know you play an organ with both your hands - <em>and</em> both your feet? Well you do, and Vierne just re-learned how - to play with his feet after the accident. Because nobody tells Louis - Vierne no. - </p> - - <p> - And because he's a badass, Vierne went on to become the official - organist at the Notre Dame in Paris, a position he won by competitively - dunking on numerous other musicians. He considered this his greatest - achievement, and what Louis Vierne says goes. - </p> - - <p> - In one final act of badassery, he carried out his lifelong dream: to die - while playing at Notre Dame. In 1937, to a full recital hall in Notre - Dame, he was giving his 1,750th performance and actually - <em - >had a heart-attack while playing and died at the console, and keeled - over so that the low "E" played until they removed his body</em - >. To this day, no rock band has ever been so metal. - </p> - - <hr /> - - <p> - Alright, so without the decoration, Louis Vierne is my favorite Organist - and composer from the period. The organ is, in my opinion, the coolest - instrument on the planet. It's the biggest, the loudest, and the most - impressive. It's also got the most wide and interesting array of sounds, - like having an orchestra at your fingertips. Vierne made some of my - favorite music for the organ (music that my lowly organ skills will - never let me play). He's also, obviously, pretty badass. - </p> - - <p> - In truth, I think all organists are pretty cool. They play a cool, - complicated instrument that really sounds like no other. They also play - with their hands and their feet. Someone once said when a musician mates - with an octopus, an organist is born. Come to think of it, Davy Jones - plays the Organ and he's pretty cool. Coincidence? I think not. - </p> - - <p> - If you get the chance, give Vierne a listen, you can look up his work on - YouTube or a Pandora Radio station in his name. Look especially for - Symphony No. 1 for Organ in D Minor, Op. 14.
