Chronicles of a Late-Blooming Child Prodigy

I'm an unrelenting aficionado of Chess, Toastmasters and acoustic music (Celtic and Bluegrass--Turquoisegrass?). Audio and Video Blogging gives my visitors a chance to hear and see my triumvirate of interests in action. Cheers! --GT

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Olympia, Washington, United States

My recurring illusions of grandeur: (1) winning a state-level chess tournament, (2) winning the World Championship of Public Speaking, and (3) playing Flight of the Bumblebee on the guitar at the Annual Flatpicking Championship in Winfield, Kansas. Until then, I'll relish all three pursuits with the enthusiasm and fearlessness of a late-blooming child prodigy. :)

Staten Island Hornpipe

(Fiddle) First crack at a new hornpipe. Hornpipes have a "HUMPty DUMPty HUMPty DUMPty" feel as you play them. All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put this one back together again, I'm afraid. Hey, it's a "first crack" - so cut me some slack, Jack, while I get a snack in this Iraqi shack before the mortar attack. >wicki wicki scratch scratch, turban worn sideways, coping a menacing pose<
