For our end of the year choir production, we have this thing called "senior song," where the seniors sing a song of their choice, and then everyone else comes in at the end of the song to sing a song with a long tradition, "you'll never walk alone."

As for books, i only have The Backstage Handbook (third edition) and The Stage Management Handbook by Daniel A. Ionazzi. I realize that I am in desperate need of more books.

All I can say for Toshiba is that it can handle a lot of painful falls and many programs. I've had a Toshiba Satellite for a year and a half, and apart from the many useless programs to make my comptuer look cool (rocketdock, a waste of memory), I have the whole CS5 master collection (a lot of...
