I finally found out why it is taking me so long to progress in the Chaconne, I remembered making the b a b flat in the second octave but for some reason I forgot to make the low b a b flat, making this one chord impossible to sound good and slowing my progress way down. I was so happy to finally make those sounds correctly.

One time I saw a movie called "The Gods Must Be Crazy" about an african village who gets a coke bottle dropped from an airplane. They think bottle came from the gods and it becomes a prised posession. Later, the village starts fighting over it and it is seen as an evil thing that brought conflict to their peaceful village. I was thinking recently the violin is an evil thing because it takes all your time and money and takes you away from people because you have to practice it so much.

Last night I watched "A Beautiful Mind", one of the best movies Ive ever seen in my life. Its definately true there is a fine line between genius and insanity I think.

As for the cubs game last night, that fan must have been wearing the wrong hat. He surely couldnt be a fan because of what he did (see photo at the right). Maybe it wont matter anyways, we will see...
