Site of the week- Band123.com- http://www.band123.com/ Band123 is a destination community for everyone that is involved in music education. Educators are able to communicate with each other, providing assistance and suggestions within their areas of personal expertise. Parents can find information on the benefits of music education for their children, practice suggestions and advice from other parents, and curriculum posted by the teacher. And soon, students will be able to communicate with each other through chat and discussion. Their site is designed to be fast and intuitive for everyone from beginners to advanced players. They've substituted plain language question and answer navigation for the typical industry jargon.

Jokes you can tell in your class- A man tried to sell his neighbor a new dog. "This is a talking dog," he said, "and you can have him for five dollars." The neighbor said, "Who do you think you're kidding with this talking dog stuff? There's no such animal." Suddenly the dog looked up with tears in his eyes. "Please buy me, Sir," he pleaded. "This man is cruel. He never buys me a meal, never bathes me, never takes me for a walk. And I used to be the richest trick dog in America. I performed before kings. I was in the army and was decorated ten times." "Hey!" said the neighbour. "He can talk. Why do you want to sell him for just five dollars?" "Because," said the seller, "I'm getting tired of all his lies." ------------------------------------------------------------- Want More Free Jokes & Humor?
