From Round to Square (and back)

For The Emperor's Teacher, scroll down (↓) to "Topics." It's the management book that will rock the world (and break the vase, as you will see). Click or paste the following link for a recent profile of the project: http://magazine.beloit.edu/?story_id=240813&issue_id=240610

A new post appears every day at 12:05* (CDT). There's more, though. Take a look at the right-hand side of the page for over four years of material (2,000 posts and growing) from Seinfeld and country music to every single day of the Chinese lunar calendar...translated. Look here ↓ and explore a little. It will take you all the way down the page...from round to square (and back again).
*Occasionally I will leave a long post up for thirty-six hours, and post a shorter entry at noon the next day.

I'm Innocent...
Roll Tide

But now that I have your attention, I want to tell you about the University of Alabama's fight song.

It has been around for a long time (there's even a Rose Bowl reference in there, and I like to think it refers to our victory in the 1926 New Year's Day game).


                    Yea, Alabama 1:36

I don't consider myself musical (and almost no one else would, either). This is as close to musical perfection as it gets for me, though. After rehab, I'll play it every morning on the houseboat that will sail Alabama's navigable waters. We might even square-dance to it.

Roll Tide.
