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

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. :)

Olympia's Irish Cottage Fair

Can you believe it? The City Council is considering canceling the annual Irish Cottage Fair. That's not fair. The city invests a paultry $1,500 for this great event, which showcases lots of volunteer talent that doesn't have a spot in the Ethnic Festival. Lots of letters have been written already. I hope the Parks and Recreation chairlady reconsiders...

I was hoping to jump in and play some sort of Irish-type instrument at the next one with my Session buddies.
