$1.6 million in Scholarships to learn a trade in Washington.
I don't know about you, but in my family when I was a kid, the goal was always to go to college. Both of my parents were college educated. All of my siblings went to college, I was the youngest in my family, and I was expected to go to college as well. I went to what is now called Central Washington University. (Back then, it was State College.)

Telekinesis returns with Wimps, Oliver Elf Army
I had the good fortune to catch Telekinesis’ Michael Lerner last month at a small art opening in a secluded barn up in Bow, a tiny hamlet off of Chuckanut Drive in Skagit County. It was a brief, subdued set; Lerner played guitar and supplemented a couple of songs with some beats piped in from his laptop. It was good to see and hear from him again, but it really whetted my appetite for the full-band Telekinesis experience: Lerner front and center on his drum kit backed by musicians just as lit up and exuberant as they can be, the Telekinesis I first experienced at Timbrrr! 2014 and again at SASQUATCH! in 2016. According to Lerner, the band now features Jes le Bon of Sleepy Genes on guitar and Kelly Sorbel of Kurly Something on bass. Lerner has had a rotating cast of members in his band over the years, so it will be interesting to experience this new lineup.
