Worms

Worms are versatile creatures. The early bird gets them, but if you or your dog gets them then that's gross see a vet/doctor. I read a book as a child that discussed various culinary methods of worm preparation, and although I thought the ending was infuriating I guess it was a good book. Sometimes you get ringworm that that's not a worm, it's mold or some shit, who am I, former surgeon general Dr. Jocelyn Elders? The worst thing about worms is that one can get into your computer I'm told and then that fucks up your shit but not in a good way like when Berlioz was on opium. The lesson is don't do drugs and also make sure you have anti virus software which I don't.

Symphonie Fantastique by Hector Berlioz

Written in 1830, this symphony by Berlioz might be the first time great music could be blamed on being totally fucked up on some wild shit, man. Basically it is a symphony that follows the loose "fictional" plot of an artist who wants this babe but totally can't get with her so he does a lot of opium and hallucinates that she is at this witch orgy. It's a pretty great piece, filled with a lot of bombastic moments of great pounding drums and brass, but the most famous element is the final movement, which takes place at the aforementioned orgy, go figure. Anyway, Berlioz is definitely cemented in the Romantic era of classical music, and in my opinion is the only French composer of note from that period, ie, that I like so deal with it.
