At Ravinia for Music of the Baroque. Program: Haydn’s 59th (Fire) Symphony, Mozart’s Ninth (Jenamy) Piano Concerto, Bach’s Third Brandenburg Concerto, and Händel’s Music for the Royal Fireworks.

Also, on the new chapter of Joe vs. Elan School, it looks like Joe decided to abruptly wrap it all up… at least until Joe’s PTSD gets triggered by a testimony from a fellow Elan survivor on an article about how the 2008’ recession seemed to spell the doom for the troubled teen industry (because it turns out that even for those parents who seemed willing to put their kids through hell for any number of reasons, it might not be affordable to do so when the economy has just crapped out.)

I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.
