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. :)

Listening to Whistlers


This morning, at the newly-opened Al Erbeed Elementary School, south of Mosul, Iraq. I handed out the second shipment of tin whistles, harmonicas, and kazoos donated by my Irish Session friends in Olympia, Washington. My next project is earplugs for the parents! The kids didn't know what to make of their windfall. It certainly improved their opinion of these brown-clad, heavily armed liberators in their town.
