RELAX! BE CALM! IT'S A TEST!
Hello,
OK...the timing could be better, but did you take a few seconds this morning to realize how beautiful the snow was? I'm always amazed how something so white and pure can cover the dirtiest things and make them look so clean and beautiful. Take five minutes and just examine a single flake of snow. It's unbelievably amazing. Then, think about this.....
Sigh.... OK, here's the deal. The videos will not be due tomorrow. Instead, they will be due on Wednesday morning. We will have a viewing party after school on Wednesday for anyone able to attend. Secondarily, we will complete the objective questions in the morning, and YES, your writings are still due tomorrow morning. Also, I will be handing you a class evaluation that will also be due on Wednesday.
You're saying to yourself, but....how....why....huh? I will remain at school tomorrow from 1:00-4:00, so you can edit then if you would like. I will also be at school on Tuesday all day, and you are welcome to come and edit then. You can edit at home if you wish. It's all good. I will submit tentative grades for everyone, and then, I will revise them by Wednesday afternoon. ALL WILL BE WELL.
Any questions?

Wow....I'm really sorry, but I forgot about the Drama II's-V's. Sorry everyone. Obviously, your writings are due tomorrow. Also, you can stay and work on legacy projects, and/or, you can make arrangements with me to finish them. We'll discuss grading then. Post your questions.

Would we still be capable of filming tomorrow as well? Also, are they extending the end of the marking period until Wednesday, because of HSA and finals? (please say yes, but don't lie)
Well well well, Look at that. It did snow. I think your sinus's are getting out of touch Mr. Bair.
I think snow is beautiful, but not today. Where I am, there's a light dusting and clear skies. The weather in this part of the county is weird.
Mr. Bair,
I have just a couple of questions:
1)I will not be in class tomorrow,
as you know, so how and when will I do the Objective Questions?
2)For the same reason as above, when can I get my video camera so that I (or we, my teammates and I) can do the editing? I would let my group do all the editing tomorrow (if there is time), but I directed the video, and I am the only one that I know of that has a solid idea of the sequence of events. They might have some idea, but we shot it out of order, which may be confusing.
3)How late will the viewing party go on Wednesday? I would love to come, but I have an after-school engagement that day until 4 or 4:15
Thanks,
Ian
PS: You're absolutely right. Snow is beautiful.
I have another question, Mr. Bair,
In the first essay, when you use the phrase "'The Hairy Ape' and/or 'Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Momma's Hung You in the Closet and I'm Feeling so Sad'", do you mean that we can write about either one, or do you want us to write about both, or does it matter?
Ian
Hello,
I don't have much time here. I have to take my middle son to the doctor's. However, you may address either play or both. Remember, "The Hairy Ape" is modern, and "Oh Dad..." is post-modern.
I already have to move our viewing day to next FRIDAY, not Wednesday. I will be available after school tomorrow for anyone who needs to film or edit. However, I need to leave by 4:00 p.m. Did I miss anything?
MjB
P.S. Oh yes, Matthew....my exact quotation was, "My sinuses are starting to bother me, but if anything comes, I don't think it would be much." I wouldn't call this much.
suuuureeeee...
uhm...anyone in my class... i need the two essay questions we have.. i seemed to have misplaced the sheet he gaves us so if anyone could give them to me, that would be absolutely WONDERFUL :)
thanks soo much ladies&&gentlemen

Kasey, if you get on and see this.. CALL ME!!!!!! we have some major discussion to do... (call my house. i left the # on your voicemail...)
LEGACY!!! what about that?!?!? i cant stay friday at all :[
First of all, Mr. Bair,
Tomorrow in class Jacob is going to take my camera home so that he can give it to me. Just want to make sure that you know, so that the fact that he is asking for someone else's camera doesn't surprise you or make you the least bit suspicious. Also, just in case, do not let him forget, please.
Second, for Moriah,
The first essay was about how each play we read was representative of its respective era in Theatre History. The second was about how Drama changed us, whether for better or for worse.
Hope I helped,
Ian
Hey Mr. Bair can you edit out sounds using moviemaker? Because when I saved my video footage from the lavithin's hard drive onto my flashdrive it din't save any of the changes Jason and I made of Wednsday so the f word is still there.
ps. Please pardon the bad the english in this message
Joseph, download a copy of AUDACITY. It is a free audio editor, and it will look and feel just like Nero's editor. That should solve the problem.

Thanks for link mr. bair I downloaded another program and got the music converted to wave file and edited.
hey moriah! if/when you get on, call me, text me, get ahold of me somehow, we need to talk about tuesday.
Hey mr. Bair today is the only day that I can film and Joey can't come and film. Is it ok to just take Joey out of the film even though he is in the first four scenes?
sometimes you just gotta do whatcha gotta do.
Thank Mandy that helps.
Mr. Bair I'm going insane I can't get hold of either cody or Joey so I'm cutting them out of the film.
ps. I sent the evaluation to your email at school.
do you need any help joe?
Thanks Matt I like some help if you can come on tuesday. I have all the scenes I just have to edit them on moviemaker.
Have you sent me a second e-mail?
I'll be there for a while on tuesday if I don't have to work. Whom are speaking to Joey?
When you say "All day tuesday" does that include 8 am as well?
I will be at school from 8:30-6:00 on Tuesday. I have a large amount of work to do, so I'm not going to be very "available" to help. I can help, but I must finish my work as well. If you're coming, I would like to know in advance.
MjB
P.S. Joseph, Mandy is right...do what you need to do.
Hey there Papa Bair... its Katja. I have a question about the invisible me thing. If we shoot one shot with just me and with the camera in the same spot shoot it with just Rosie... would it turn out the same? And how long can we stay on Tuesday?
Katja,
Yes, and read about two comments ago.
MjB
Ok then, Morgan, Madeleine and I will be coming in tomorrow around 8:30 until about 1. We are not sure if Dominika is or not, we tried every way we have to contact her.
Is that ok?
Hey, it's Dominika. Um, I have no reception where I am right now, so I didn't get any phone calls or anything from Sam or anyone. The Tuesday thing could be fine for me, if it's still on. I'll be there, okay?
--Dominika
1. No Joey I didn't I forgot to email you again can you come tommorow?
2. Thanks Mandy and Mr. Bair I have managed to reconcile with some of my sanity and finally got a hold of cody and we are hopefully filming tomorrow.
O thank you Nika ^^ And none of us have your number. So you wouldn't have gotten any phone calls to begin with.
Ah....the beauty of the BLOG. What did we do before this? All is fine with me for tomorrow. Where are you filming?
MjB
