Morning Mayhem

S5.E65: Crazy week, Mustard, EuroVision, UAPs, and CMEA Finalists

First there was a half day with professional development--then the weather happened. It became a full day with a delayed opening. So, not really crazy, but we don't have much in the way of excitement so this was the most we had this week. If you ever wondered what came first, chicken or the egg, it was actually mustard, way before ketchup (or catsup). CMEA Finalists who will be performing in the Southern Region Ensemble and representing Woodland's Fine Arts Programs stopped by, but here is the full list: Concert Band: 1. Blake Polaski- Trombone 2 (4th Year in a row!) 2. Persy Dravis- Tuba (1st Year!) 3. Arina Rigali- Mallets (2nd Year in a row!) Treble Choir: 1. Casey Mulvihill- Soprano (2nd Year in a row!) Mixed Choir: 1. Lucas-John Minicucci - Tenor (1st Year!)

S5.E64: New England cold, Shout Out Bus Drivers,, Humpback Whales, and MOMMA MANNING

I'm not cold; you are! Or are you? The debate over what is "New England" cold was, well, up for debate. Either way, New England cold is cold. And for that reason, bus drivers deserve a lot of credit for getting those busses running early and warming up the cabs for all our students. The humpback whale population has more than quadrupled over the past decade and we are here for it. And MOMMA MANNING joins the show for an update on the football team's Class S quarterfinal win over Bloomfield.

S5.E63: Driving Conditions, Snow Tires, Chernobyl Fungi, AI ads, NVL CHAMPS Football Team.

Everything got canceled with cautions for black ice, but that doesn't deter Amato--he revels in inclement weather driving. But no one has snow tires any more. Chernobyl Fungi is not a 90s alt-punk band. You'll have to listen to understand how that helps NASA [https://www.sciencealert.com/chernobyl-fungus-appears-to-have-evolved-an-incredible-ability]. And the NVL CHAMPS, Woodland Football team shows up: Mark Poulin, Nico Scampolino, and Erik Pulkinnen

S5:E62: Thanksgiving Amnesia, Leftovers, AI Robot Uber Drivers, and Woodland Football NVL Champs!

Amato gets the camera restarted and reruns the beginning of the show (You can only catch that on Facebook feed). Everybody debates the leftovers of Thanksgiving meals, Elon Musk belives that people can be replaced in 20 years. And Woodland Football wins the NVL!

S5.E61: Tomlin Dressed Casual, Pep Rally, BucketHead the Panda, Flags, and MOMMA MANNING!

What can I say? The dapper Tomlin was in "cas" mode for pep rally day, a day of excitement and chaos. And, dare I say, mayhem? Perhaps. Decker wrestles with a panda, Laguna Beach decides on a new flag, and . . . MOMMA MANNING CALLS IN! That's right--she's back with a preview of the big Thanksgiving Eve game, War in the Woods. Lots going on today.
