1. BT’s new song "Rose of Jericho" is slightly disappointing.  It’s like he’s trying to merge the more classical, experimental leaning of This Binary Universe<\/em> with the more commercial-friendly ventures of the previous albums.  It sounds good on paper, but in reality it just doesn’t work too well, sounding like less than the sum of its parts.  One thing I’ve always appreciated about his music is the creativity within<\/em> the song itself–the variety of beat structures and vocals dancing around one another.  His more straightforward house stuff is well done, but it’s never been very interesting to me.  Maybe the rest of the album, when it comes out, will be more varied.<\/p>\n

2. Luke is coming up, within the next month or two, to his first experiences in a class setting.  At this point we’re planning on homeschooling him, and we’ve enrolled him in this curriculum\/program called Classical Conversations<\/a>.  He has homework to do throughout the week, and once a week he and all his "classmates" meet and go over the material they’ve learned.  We’re more than a little apprehensive about how it’s going to go since Luke has exhibited some noted developmental delays, especially in the social arena.  We’ll see how it goes.  If he just isn’t able to handle it we’ll try something different, but it seems like a great program and we hope it turns out well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
