  1. We don’t blow.
  2. We know how to use our sticks.
  3. It’s good to be right… always.
  4. We don’t lick our wood or tongue our holes.
  5. We have good hands.
  6. It’s all about tempo control.
  7. We like it loud, fast, and hard.
  8. We can perform without lube.
  9. We get head daily.
  10. Our sticks come in pairs.

I wouldn’t even normally say “Fuck Cal Poly”, except when dealing with parking.

But, as of now, entering Fuck Cal Poly into Google returns my very own humble site at position #1. The offending post? Cal Poly Band by the Numbers of course!

All I can say is, “heh”.

The link Google provides is actually wrong, since I renamed Other Pages to About, but whatever — it’s still funny. (This will work itself out the next time Google crawls my site.)

Today being August 20, also known as 8/20, and the time being 8:20, it is time to pay homage to the Mustang Band By The Numbers.

Update: A somewhat more up-to-date Mustang Band by the Numbers.
Have a nice 820 Day!
