Done with schoolwork until late August. I am pretty burned out with no more than a week off since Christmas, so it couldn't come at a better time. Going on vacation in North Carolina next week to visit the parents.
But of course I still promised to come into school sometime tomorrow cause they want me specifically for some reason to conduct student interviews about the legislature's funding of the school.

CHORDS OF DECEPTION mostly takes place at a swanky private school where the Greater Orlando Youth Orchestra rehearses. There are high ceilings, artwork on the walls, lots of glass. . .
How does that compare with your high school experience?

Staying home today because I can afford a personal day, have no second class today, and really just need to recharge for the final two days I have to spend with our frankly awful new math teacher who doesn't understand what she's teaching us very well to the point I've had to correct her on stuff because unlike her I tend to pre-read the lessons before we do them as a class.
I know she's new and might improve when she has more time to prepare rather than coming in mid-term, but she's chaotic, loud, messy and has a bit of a temper at times. I really don't like her.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 📝📊 The #SAT was first administered to 8,000 students in June 1926, born from #WorldWarI #military I.Q. tests designed by #Princeton psychologist and eugenicist Carl Brigham.
Now taken by two million #students annually, fewer than 10% of U.S. #colleges require it for fall 2026 admissions, a shift accelerated by the #Covid #pandemic and long standing debates about what the test actually measures. The article traces the test’s #evolution from a tool that helped break into the old boys’ network of elite colleges to an #exam whose scores strongly correlate with family #income.

The Physics of Music
If this entire post appears in the body of your email, click the title to read it in its tallandtruetales blog setting.
More years ago than I care to count, I took my one and only high school physics class. I was overwhelmed.
In fairness, so was the poor teacher. He spoke with an accent, and his most oft-uttered plea was, “Please-a! You have-a to pay attention-a!”
Needless to say, most of us did not. Unlike many of my peers, I was never a prime disruptor of high school classes, most of which I enjoyed, but I was definitely one of those not paying much attention in physics class.
As I recall, we all passed the course. But I’m sure some of us, myself included, were awarded a passing grade by that teacher only to ensure he would not have to face us again in the following semester.
In the threescore-and-five years since then, I have learned—first to my chagrin, eventually to my delight—that it is the laws of physics that govern the universe we inhabit, and everything in it. Alas, I really should have paid more attention.
The physics of music is one example. One of my favourite pastimes while writing, reading, driving—pretty much anything—is listening to music. I enjoy big band arrangements, ‘40s swing, ‘50s rock ‘n’ roll, ragtime and stride piano, to name a few genres. But my preferred music from quite a young age has been the classical repertoire—opera overtures, ballet scores, symphonies, sonatas, piano concertos, and the like. When engaged in passive pursuits today, I am rarely without airpods stuck in my ears.
This fondness for the classical catalogue was ingrained early by my father, who would join me and my younger brother to listen to radio broadcasts in our bedroom as we were falling asleep. On occasion, Dad was asleep before we were, but that didn’t spoil our enjoyment. His favourite piece was the Prelude to Act III of Lohengrin, by Richard Wagner, which opened the weekly broadcast of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.
My brother’s favourite was Pictures at an Exhibition by Modest Mussorgsky, while I delighted to the stirring, operatic overtures by Giacomo Rossini. To this day, I relish listening to their rollicking sounds.
So, imagine my surprise when I recently discovered in an online podcast that sounds, of whatever type, regardless of origin, make no noise. Sound, I learned, is silent. In space, in our earthly atmosphere, everywhere.
Everywhere, that is, except in our brains. And that is where physics enters the picture, confounding me yet again.
Without our brains, I’m now led to believe, we would hear not even the loudest sound. Mind you, without brains we would be conscious of nothing, so that does make sense. But until recently, I never realized that the very best music ever composed by Mozart, Joplin, Count Basie, Dylan, Kristofferson, Cohen, and all the others makes no noise whatsoever until perceived by our brains. The fact is, nothing in the universe makes a noise until it is registered by our brains.
Forgive me if you have long known this, but sound, rather than being noisy, is a series of silent waves, produced when the source of that sound—a violin perhaps, or a jackhammer—vibrates, pushing against the surrounding air and creating areas of high and low pressure.
The length of these sound waves varies, of course, producing different frequencies, pitches, volumes, and amplitudes. Physics naif that I am, I had to look up the meaning of those terms. The length of a wavelength determines the distance between successive waves, some of which are compressed, others expanded, resulting in higher and lower pitches.
But according to the podcast, none of these make any noise at all until they reach our ears. And even then, they are silent until they’ve passed through the ear’s component parts—the tympanic membrane, the ossicles, and the cochlea. It is only when the vibrations picked up by the ears are transmitted to the brain via the cochlear nerve that we actually hear them.
Mind you, soundwaves travel quickly—343 metres/second through the air—but soundlessly until picked up by the brain. To my young self, though, lying cozy in my bed with Dad beside me, that concept was never imagined. The sound of the music seemed instantaneously audible from our tinny radio speaker.
How, you might ask, could I have believed that? Well, if that long-ago, frustrated physics teacher ever presented this information in my high school class, it totally eluded me. I always thought the lovely, musical sounds I appreciate originated with the instrument or voice producing them, or with the device that recorded and transmitted them.
I can scarcely imagine that the magnificent, baritone voice of the late Dmitri Hvorostovsky, for instance, standing on stage as he sings the comedic largo al factotum from Rossini’s The Barber of Seville, is utterly devoid of sound for whatever interval of time it takes to reach my ears in the back row of the uppermost balcony.
I wonder if Simon and Garfunkel ever contemplated that notion when singing The Sounds of Silence. Probably not.
On the other hand, the elderly Beethoven, almost totally deaf, would have heard his magnificent ninth Symphony only in his brain.
Anyway, music is but one example of how the laws of physics govern everything in the known universe. And the amazing thing is that those laws change over time, as new discoveries are made. No single law is immutable, but collectively they are supreme.
Now, someone with a fuller grasp of physics than I might well cry Poppycock! at my naïve understanding, might well scoff at my puerile grasp. And, truth be told, if presented with proof my newly-formed perception is incorrect, I would happily recant. The very idea that sound makes no noise anywhere in the universe except in the brain still confounds me.
Despite the podcast, the infantile part of my brain clings to the idea that the sounds of music spring gloriously forth everywhere at the very moment they are formed at source.
To have this belief restored, I confess, would be music to my ears!

The Missing Piece of Education
Education, in whatever institution you are in, lacks the system that actually contributes to your success. Be it in schools, or universities, you largely have to self-study to ace in life. This defeats the purpose of coming into institutions where you already have great infrastructure but largely under-utilized. Peripheral knowledge is available for free on the internet. One can argue you need peers to push you forward and develop social skills. But you can get that through community clubs as well. Peer network shouldn’t be the only reason to enter universities. What we should be coming to institutions for is to understand the nuances, the tactile knowledge. How often you go to your professors to understand a concept you couldn’t get through the internet? How often our syllabus covers topics not available online? We are killing the natural curiosity of students and making them machines. We no longer pause and observe our surroundings, the world, the people, nature. Life is boring, but we’ve now filled it with constant dopamine. When did you last sat with someone in silence? Yes, that’s a thing, when you come together, don’t talk, don’t use your phones, maybe read a book, and still feel quality time spent together. All of this is not difficult to create. You don’t need policies for this. It’s not alien to our culture. University administrations can make such an environment very much possible. Especially the new and upcoming ones. We need a lot of hands-on experimentation, and I don’t mean this as a career training, but as life skills. Professors shouldn’t be there for just attendance and grades. They are experts in their field, and each student must take leverage and advantage of that specialization.

Debbie Does Dallas (1978) Review
There it is… There it is… Aaaaand, we’re done.This movie has a sort of “lore” associated with it, which is not uncommon for porno films, especially ones from this era, but this one is particularly notorious for it. Aside from the fact that it arose during the peak of the ‘Golden Age of Porn’ in the late 70’s, where girls were hairy, dudes were not all packing 9 inch dicks, and plot (however vacuous it was) was actually important to the film, it also featured a porn actress who seemingly had a lot of talent (IE, she had a great pair of tits and a nice ass) who only did a handful of films before tragically dying from a drug overdose. Of those handful of films, they were not one, but two sequels to said porno, “Debbie Does Dallas”. The real truth is that she vanished from the industry, and reportedly she was tracked down by a private detective hired by Jim Clark (The director), where it turns out she was simply living her life out in the midwest and did not want to be disturbed nor return to “film-making”. How quaint.
There is also the rumor that this film was shot guerilla style on a real University campus, having sex and filming nude scenes in the public between classes. The reality is that the producers alerted the alumni that they were filming. What they said they were filming, I cannot determine, but I can pretty safely say they most likely did not say they were filming an pornographic film about students fucking their professors.
Anyway, this is one of the big hitters from that era, having sold tens of thousands of copies and being one of the biggest successes, if not the biggest, the year it came out, in terms of X-Rated cinema. The old urban myth of the sudden rise and success of VHS players was claimed to have been in part to the fact that people were buying them to watch this at home, although this little myth has some truth to it, though it is more-so the fact that adult cinema itself was the reason for a lot of VHS player sales, not just this movie.
Now what kind of golden nugget are we talking about here? A group of 16 year old girls (All actresses were in their early 20’s while filming this) want to help their friend, Debbie, travel to Dallas to tryout to become a professional cheerleader, since her parents will not help her pay for her travel expenses and hotel stay.
I hope you like locker room scenes, because that’s where we’re going to spend a good portion of the film.So what is a hot young girl in a town full of pervy old men supposed to do to earn an honest buck?
Well, the girls go on the wonderful journey of picking up odd-jobs all around the town to earn enough money to help their dear sweet friend Debbie achieve her dream! Unfortunately as they all find out, working sucks and they barely earn enough money to pay for Debbie, let alone themselves to go with her for moral support, so naturally they turn to the one thing that a girl can do to make money fast; prostitution. Yes, these 16 year old high school girls are going to let men leer, grope, and fuck them, to reach the lofty heights of helping their friend (Not even themselves achieving it) the opportunity to tryout to become a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. I do not think their Business Ethics professors intended for this approach when they told them, “Really sell yourself”. Oh, wait, sorry, I am being informed by my Legal & Compliance Team that they are, in fact, not the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. They are the Dallas Cowgirls. Very important distinction.
So naturally, this opens the door to a slew of vignettes of each of the girls (Again, all actresses are legal age) fucking and sucking their way to paying for Debbie, and themselves, to go with her to Dallas. We get an assortment of scenes involving oral sex, vaginal sex, anal sex, some masturbatory scenes, groping scenes, and some casual nudity scenes, including plenty of upskirt shots.
The one thing this film does right, I will kindly say, is that it knows how to properly do framing and lighting. You can see what is happening, you know where it is happening, how it is happening, and when it is happening. You would be surprised how common of an issue these things are for pornos, or even just film in general. The upbeat soundtrack accompanying most of the film also lends a sort of light-hearted vibe to it, giving it that classic sex comedy tonal feel throughout, until the action really ramps up in specific scenes where it delves into this weird, alternative, metallic-sounding rock music that makes you feel a little uncomfortable.
Oh wait, here comes my favorite part!Unfortunately, that is all the nice things I have to say about it. The acting is awful. The girls look appropriate for high schoolers, but but their acting comes off as way too “innocent” and “youthful”, coming off almost like they are middle schoolers rather than juniors. Bambi Woods, the lead actress, is especially notorious for this, acting like a literal deer-in-headlights any time something sexual happens in the film, which at times is rather off-putting. And their blowjob skills are way too expertise to match the innocent virginity they are supposed to be portraying.
The men fill their roles adequately, although appear in it for the briefest of moments, with only a couple notable scenes featuring them in speaking roles which, they seem to have more charisma than the girls surprisingly. They mostly fill the roles of boys, football players, who are the boyfriends of the cheerleaders, and are being denied intimacy for whatever reason so the girls can focus on their “work”.
The cinematography is flat and boring. While that style works for most of the sex scenes, where we get blatant raw displays of sexual congress in the film, for the character and plot bits it makes everything add up to feeling like boring filler. Most of the film is just this wide-angled, flat, lingering take on the characters in the scenery, soaking up screen time, as we are carried from vignette to vignette. This makes all the scenes carrying you around from one erotic escapade to the other a chore to sit through, and a verifiable boner-killer.
Corporal punishment, in all of its glory.There is also the rather bold, or odd, inclusion of a fetishized spanking scene, which seems out of place. It occurs after one of the girls gets caught giving her boyfriend a blowjob in the library. Most of the scenes involve regular sex or oral, so this specific scene feels somewhat sudden, given the formal nature of the rest of the activities, but it is appreciated. If there was more fetishized content included rather than the girls just sucking and fucking, and doing more BDSM or hedonistic activities, it would fit with the theme, but I suppose the unpredictability of its inclusion heightens the eroticism, so you really cannot complain for seeing more young asses on the screen, especially when they are doing more than just getting plapped by another stray dick.
Which brings to mind the writing. My god, the writing. Innuendos that barely make sense, teases that are non-sequiturs, dirty talk that feels stunted and awkward, and a plot so paper thin, it is almost like it is not even there. Mr Greenfeld actually felt like one of the more believably written characters, with somewhat of a character arc as the store owner who hires Debbie, and is infatuated with her from the get-go, and is ironically the reason this whole movie starts. He wants to see her breasts, then grope them, then taste them, progressively paying more and more for each escalation, until she backs down and puts them away. She then goes on to give her friends a talk in the locker room about how she earned this money so fast. Later on, the film ends with Bambi dressed as a cheerleader, getting chased around by Mr Greenfeld in a football outfit, saying how he always wanted to play for the team and fuck the cheerleading captain, so this is him living out his fantasy in a way. Which, honestly, comes off as a little heart-warming. No, honestly.
Overall you have a hackneyed film that offers some rather well-shot and titillating hardcore sequences, with a nice bow-tied ending wrapping it all together. Not the worst porno I have ever seen, but definitely over-hyped and nothing particularly amazing nor breathtaking about it, unless you have a particular ‘thing’ for Bambi Woods, or any of her female co-stars. I will say, the stand-out sex scene with Bambi at the end, and the stellar blowjob scene in the library make it worth a watch at least once, aside from the historical significance of the film, but other than that, it’s not one that I would particularly find worth re-treading over and over again.
I’ll end this review with a highlight of the film, an excellently framed shot of Bambi Woods’ spectacular bush.

Released shortly after the fall of the Golden Age of Porn, due to the disintegration of grind house cinema and tighter regulation of what kinds of films could be shown in theaters, “Careful, He May Be Watching,” is not the finale of narrative-driven porn that dominated the 70’s and half of the 80’s, but it…

I asked my school's point person at Goodwill for a quote on a story I wrote about the General Assembly passing funding for The Excel Center, and then she asked me if I would serve as emcee on a video project thanking them for doing so. I really didn't want to, I'm very socially anxious, but agreed.

This Is Not the First Time People Have Been Afraid of a New Tool
By Cliff Potts, CSO, and Editor-in-Chief of WPS News
Baybay City, Leyte, Philippines — June 20, 2026
A lot of people act like AI is something completely new and dangerous. It feels that way, but we have been here before.
When computers first showed up, people said they would destroy jobs. When the internet spread, people said it would ruin how we think. Even simple tools like calculators and spellcheck were once called cheating.
Now they are normal.
AI is following the same path. At first, people are unsure. Then they argue about it. Then they slowly start using it. After that, it becomes part of everyday life.
The pattern repeats.
That does not mean AI has no risks. Every tool has risks. But refusing to learn it does not protect you. It just leaves you behind while others figure it out.
The smarter move is to learn how to use it well.
You do not have to trust it completely. You do not have to love it. But you should understand it, because it is not going away.
This is not the end of something.
It is the start of a new normal.
