*Round-Robin ‘Riting.
Requested by The Man for Aeiou and La Mort, La Vie, L’Amour. You’ll have to ask them what they have in mind; it’s a mystery to us!

Happy Birthday, Cliff Eagle!
The multilingual MBer may have dropped “teh Pwnage” from his name, but he certainly deserves to pwn his 14th birthday (Tuesday, April 29). The April birthday thread awaits your pies.
HG2MB, v. 2008.1
The latest Hitchhiker’s Guide to MuseBlog (HG2MB) thread gives experienced MBers a chance to tell newcomers about aspects of the blog not covered in The Rules, the HG2MB Page, or the two earlier HG2MB threads: version 2006.1
and version 2006.2. Share your wisdom!
(Please includes in-blog links wherever you think they’ll help.)
Alter Ego Thread, v. 2008.3
You know how it works: Post under a false name, and try to guess the identities of others doing the same.
Continued from v. 2008.2.
NOTE: Check your posts before sending them. The Administrators will not rescue you if you accidentally submit one under your “real” blogname. Many an alter ego has fallen victim to a careless “submit” click.
May/June 2008 Muse Discussion
WARNING! Will definitely contain spoilers!
To spare MBers reading the “Recent Comments” column, please paste the following message in at the beginning of your posts:

Graduation
Requested by Queen Francois the first.
Happy 444th Birthday, William Shakespeare!
We’re not sure who you were or how you did it, but you sure could do it. If you were who you said you were, then you were born sometime near this date in 1564 (or at any rate were christened three days later). And 444 is four times eleventy-one, which has got to be good, no?

Useful Muse Academy Links and Information
It seems like a good time to collect these in one place for the benefit of newcomers and the terminally confused (i.e., everybody).

May Day Ball — Organizing Committee
The ball, like Muse Academy, exists in the Musiverse, not the universe. But that’s never stopped us before. Planning has already begun on the Hare-athon random thread. Let’s shift it here.
Hare-athon: The Penultimate Lap (or Leap) (or Lapin)
Continued above.
Logging the Blog
We’ve added a few Categories used for classifying threads and have reorganized the list a little. It will take a while for us to update the classification of old threads.
You can help! If you spot a thread that needs to be reclassified (RRRs, etc., are particularly ripe for it), just post its name and URL here. Thanks!
Bunny Apocalypse, Part 1
Requested by groundhog22, for whom a Bunny Melee apparently wasn’t enough.
We *shudder* to think what lies in store for this thread.
Bulletin from Muse Academy
Anyone interested in pie kwan do classes may sign up now in the Patissical Education Department.
School
Requested by Alice, seconded by Kari, and thirded, we suspect, by most MBers.
Grant’s Film Strip Project
The Ultimate Supreme Executive Chairman sent us a couple of sound files for his film project. We haven’t had time to convert them to MP3 format, so we can’t be sure you’ll be able to play them until you report in. Here they are:
NEW! Treble_Cone_Freeskier (who now seems to be spelling her name “Trebel_Cone_Freeskier”) has taken Midnight Fiddler’s storyboards and turned them into a real, honest-to-goodness film strip.
