Nope, not about Optimism. -

*sigh* I didn't want to have to give this away so easily, but it seems you are hung up on olfactory ideas... fraglans is an adjective that means "flaming, fiery, hot, scorching... monstrous, burning" -
Lol, I'm glad. And you're darn straight Phantom was on fire at San Antonio.
-
Well, if you're like us, you just spent 40 hours this past week of friggin hardcore marching and whatnot. Why isn't there an awesome Division I corp in Texas, despite all the talent here?
-
Holy f***ing s***, OK.
-
A lot of us always burn this song entitled "Endless Love" that we have to play every year for the homecoming court. Omg, that song makes me want to disembowel myself.
-
Right on, man, I'm going to see semi-finals, and finals (and maybe the division II and III finals as well) at Madison in person too.

I have a feeling the the either the green machine, or the man who sold his soul to satan will prevail- or perhaps both.

Not quite. I'll give you a hint- the language that that is in is dead. -
Nope- some think they do, but it's simply not true. What is your quest?

Meus hortus est fraglans!!! And that's all I have to say right now about our show. -
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes.... I can see it now, another Phantom win, the one year I go to the World Finals... oh yes indeed, yes indeed....

Friggin' Sweet- I've always thought that it was a ridiculous idea that the speed of light always has been and always will be constant.

Haha, but it depends on how you define universe! Perhaps the universe ends at the point where there is no more matter because it hasn't expanded that far yet- perhaps you define it by temperature, bounded by points where thermal diffusion hasn't occured yet- or perhaps you define it as the edge of the higg's field where matter becomes absolutely meaningless and no longer has the attribute we refer to as "mass". I however, define it as the edge of existenece and therefore must say it is infinite because what would decide where things can no longer exist in any form? Sure, matter wouldn't exist, but energy is still present- that's all that was within our extremely young universe as well, but you wouldn't say it doesn't exist either would you? I think this perhaps is a large misconception- even Mr. Atman seems to have a hard time getting his facts straight here- in his desparation to set forth philosophical views he seems to have a skewed view of reality. For example, when he was talking about the first few instants of the universe, he asked "what happened when photons went past the barrier of the univers", as though that disproved anything. WRONG- the universe expanded faster than the speed of light at first- that's cosmological inflantion, and is also tied to the HIgg's field. Besides, even if a photon were to get beyond the generally accepted boundary, that would only push the bounds out farther, not disprove them altogether. Secondly, when he tried to challenge our cosmological roots once again as he stated almost straight-out that heavy elements beyond iron could not have been made by stars, firstly because it is very hard to happen, and secondly because (he said) the lifespan of a star is 10 billion years versus the eniter universes lifetime of 13.7 billion. This however, is plainly false. Stars that are big enough to drive fusion reactions of such a magnitude actually only surivive for about 10 MILLION years- there could've been 5 generations of stars form the heavier elements and go nova since the dinosaurs were even around. On the subject of the multiverse... this is an interesting and aesthetic idea about the universe in a quantum sense, but I'm afraid its much like the holographic theory developed by either Stephen Hawking or some ofhis associates (I can't remember which) - it is a theory of the entire universe created to rectify one small issue in a specific area of physics, and it is plainly not true. The hologram theory being created to rectify the problem of maximum entropy possible being directly related to the surface area of a black hole, not it's volume, and the multiverse to rectify the electron variations of the double slit experiment depending on at what point we observe the electrons before they hit the photosensitive paper.

Lol, it's some painting that was inspired by the story of Faust. And thanks.
-
I'm very seriously considering going to World Finals in Madison... oh man, this is going to be very interesting for sure.

Well ike I said, it's not like they're not good anymore, but when I look at videos from years past it seems to be they used to be gods among men, but now they are not quite so elevated in their position. -
DCI Masters of the Summer Music Games (July 28)
Fortisimo replied to euro_euph06's topic in Drum Corps Forum
Lol, its funny, when I went to DCI San Antonio and SCV performed I felt like I was listening to the shows we played my freshman and sophmore years- get it? They have many identical chord progressions. But, it was actually a joke. (Phantom's music is better- JD Shaw owns Poulan though- and that's no joke. And that's why we switched to him) -
darn, no wonder the show is so friggin' sweet.
-
First off- heck yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. Secondly, I'm afraid I don't actually know the backsotry of the show here, so yeah.... maybe someone could fill me in?

Duncanville's alright- not as good as they once were I don't think, but they're still pretty good. We didn't have an oppurtunity to compete with em last year though, so I dunno for sure though. -
Lmao, Phantom should definitely bust out those balck uniforms and own. That would rock big time.
-
lmao, right on.
-
Lol, where shall we have the party?

Yeah, Allen's numbers definitely do not guarantee success. But I must say, Allen' band is very cool- they do lots of awesome wave stuff and whatnot in the stands- quite entertaining if you ask me.
