9/28/2012 JBHSOPE vs. Westlake
This past Friday night was my Homecoming Game at Westlake (class of '77), but I sat with the Bowie fans, next to my kid Jordan, who you'll get a good look at in the images this week. This is the first performance with the planets' skeletons (I wonder if they'll ever grow skin that looks like the planetary surfaces?). Jordan and his best friend, Euan Cairns, are the planet Neptune.

I simply ask that you not mask or remove my copyright watermark and I would also appreciate you providing a link back to this website: rppix.smugmug.com.
Q: How do I download the best Image? A: 1) Page through the images using your keyboard's arrow keys, don't try to mouse click those teensy arrows above the images. 2) Hover your cursor over the large image on the right half of this webpage, you'll see a menu popup. In the list of "View Size," choose "Original." After the image finishes loading, Windows users right-click the image and choose "Save file as..." to save to your hard drive. Mac users' machines are so intuitive that I don't have to tell you how to download images (I don't use Mac's -- I have no clue how to download an image :^p). I can print photos for you too if you'd like for a small fee. Print size and cost: 4 x 6 inch = $5.00 • 5 x 7 inch = $7.00 • 8 x 10 inch (8.5 x 11) = $10.00. Email me at russell_pankratz@yahoo.com.

Perhaps I should explain:
Stellae Errantés (The Wandering Stars) is the name of Bowie Band's program for the 2012 marching season. The songs they perform, are about the planets in our solar system: Mars, Saturn, and so on, and the "bird cages" that you see scattered around the field during the show are the frameworks that I hope will eventually be covered with a skin that might resemble the appearance of the planets. My son is one of the operators of Neptune, and so far neither he nor I have seen anything planetary yet. The music, however is good, and they play it so well.
