OK, first things first, My name is Kim (but you can call me Jim or Bing Lau) and I'm a graduate from McCluer North High School in Missouri and am continuing my education at Mizzou. You must know that I am "The Ultimate" Band Rat, thus explaining the picture. More on that later though.

Always Under Construction

As far as my interests go, some might say that I am very stubborn. I prefer to be called goal-oriented. My one goal was to buy a Bach Stradivarius Professional 180 Series Silver-Plated Trumpet, and as of November 18th 2000, I finally succeeded. Isn't that a pretty picture?? My newest goal is to afford my higher education plans, and then make it through said higher education in less than a decade.

I would like to mention a few of my formerly fellow band rats, but would like to say that to mention everyone in detail would take days, so just live with what you get.

GUESTBOOK

Meet the Band Rats

Yeah, I know he doesn't appreciate me calling him this, but he really can't do much to stop me on here. (Besides, he loves me, even if it's like pulling teeth to make him admit it) Meet my director and his family.

Meet Daddy Baudo

Baudoisms

My interpretations of those funny little phrases uttered by Daddy Baudo, that only a Baudo could really understand, and since I'm practically adopted. . . Heh heh. . .

Alright, I finally put a pic of myself on here even if it isn't the best one possible. This is me (on your left) and Queen Laurie (on your right) at our first game last year on September 9th, 2000. The game went well for the band even if I can't say the same for our team against Riverview Gardens. If you want to see more info and pictures of the band, I have another page with more pics posted if you click the link above. You can also go see some Marching Band stuff from a few years ago at our web-site through my links page.

Meet My Family

Since I obviously didn't sprout from some plant, I must have a relative or two right? If you wanna know, here is a little bit of info about them.

Former Rats and Others

A few of the rats who have moved on to bigger things - like college. Also some friends of mine who don't qualify as being Rats or Fleas. I know, I know, for shame!

The Wandering Mind

A collection of works written by myself and many others. Some are obscure and others are more light-hearted, but hopefully all are thought provoking.
