Sound Designer summer camp.
Heh, Jon B. went to a Theremin camp (as an adult, of course). Still! Coolest Nerd Camp Ever.
Niska: Mr. Reynolds? You died, Mr. Reynolds. Mal: Seemed like the thing to do.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
My experience in Bible camps involved a lot of Bible study, prayer, church dogma, witnessing, testimony, etc. Not something I have many fond memories of.
A week of ass hooks and cock punches
And, not too sure if this type of camp would be my cup of tea, either. Ouchies.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I loved Triennium. I took as many classes as I could, sang in the choir, made friends with a poet who was arrested as soon as he got back to South Africa (he got out pretty quickly, he knew he was risking it by coming to the conference). Meeting kids from all over the country and the world was a pretty big treat in a pre-internet age.

This type of summer camp does, in fact, exist.
Go on. Act surprised that I know that.
Act even more surprised that I felt compelled to (over)share it with alla y'all.

No WAY!
Go on. Act surprised that I know that.
I, for one, am completely and totally surprised that you.... yeah, I don't even believe my own typing.

The status is NOT quo.
I want to have Sound Designer summer camp. There's no way THAT could end badly.
We have this already. It's called our backyard.

Now tagless for your comfort.
DH told me there was a Russian spy who was a theramin player. He developed some kind of code using the same theramin skills or frequencies or some such thing.
Is he bullshitting me?

Coding and Sleeping
I've always assumed all theramin players are Russian spies. That's why I never tell Jon any state secrets.

No, he's not.
And it's not just a theremin player who was a Russian spy, it was professor Leon Theremin himself.
