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. :)

Irish Tenor Banjo, Wind that Shakes the Barley

Meet Ernest T., my old/new four-string Irish Tenor Banjo. Tenor banjos are fun to pick, and are tuned the same as mandolin and fiddle (an octave lower, naturally).

I checked out your photos... very cool. I hope you will post more. Are you in Iraq right now?... Stay safe and keep playing. Your love of music comes through.

Hi Glenn. I'm trying to get some 'childminder' advice. Do you know of any sites, like this one 'childminder' which might help me to do that? Many thanks.
