First Chair !!!
NEWS FLASHAs most of you know, Katie had made All State Orchestra playing Bass. In fact she was 5th chair (only 4 other kids in the whole state who were better). Even more impressive considering she is only a sophomore.
This morning we dropped her off (pictured above) at one of the other High Schools in the district where the other State finalists were gathering for their ride to San Antonio for the State Orchestra event. Katie was nervous.
The reason Katie was nervous was when the got there they would do a chair audition. This audition will determine your final ranking or chair. It's not unusual for your rank to change, they see how you do in person compared to the others.
Katie was happy to be 5th and she didn't want to move down. Well we just got the news . . . She didn't move down . . . She is #1 with a bullet !
Needless to say everyone is so excited. When Linda got the news her scream almost knocked me out of my chair (and she was upstairs). Her Orchestra director - also pictured above, couldn't be more pleased. Linda and I are going to San Antonio this weekend to see her concert. We are so proud

And what's even more impressive is that Texas is a HUGE state. It would have been an accomplishment even in those puny states that just don't have that many people living in them, but we're big giving her that much more competition making the placement that much more of an accomplishment.
We're proud of her too.
So what does "with a bullet" mean?

Well Stu,
in Billboard Magazine's chart of the top 500 singles of music - If a particular song was quickly becoming a hit and was selling a good quantity of product the editors of Billboard would put a bullet icon in front of the listing to indicate a soon-to-be hit. #1 with a bullet means it shot straight to the top quickly
