Prime Minister “Odd Ball” formerly known as “Pint Pale” approves a vaccine to be used as of next week (period)!?…. It is certainly great news for all that we finally have a vaccine but if the performance of the so-called government is anything to go by we are in for […]

Play Along Tunes for the Trumpet, Flugelhorn, Cornet, Piccolo Trumpet and now even the French Horn (Best to Use Headphones): Note these videos are more for training/tracking my own progress – so obviously latest recordings are better than older ones.

Right off the bat (though I am no baseball player myself but do love watching the game) let me just say that France is a country I absolutely love/admire and I’m quite supportive of its existing leadership; that’s unlikely to change any time soon. However watching the disgusting video clip […]

Recently I’ve come to notice how Christmas movies (now that we’re approaching the season) have become – and possibly have always been – a true representation of a really White Christmas; in other words the main characters mostly being caucasian. Even parliaments are less representative of the composition of our […]

Another brilliant performance by Dutch violinist Janine Jansen of one of great masterpieces for violin by Tchailkovsky. In my opinion music is not just about technical ability to play the music, but equally important is how you project the piece you’re playing in terms of your performance in emphasizing each […]

What we hear from EU leaders is plenty of talk of values and the rule of law. But it seems that these “traditions” are only applicable on certain ad hoc basis; in other words baseless. Now I am a big supporter of the EU project but I see many weaknesses […]

Ever gone on a hot air balloon ride? It’s fun; that is I suspect so as I haven’t tried it myself 🙁 What is NOT so fun is watching Democracies crumble in the face extremist politics of the far right. Whether in the U.S, the U.K the signs are unmistakable; […]

I was devastated to learn about the death of the football icon Diego Maradona. His talent/dedication to football is unmatched; facts that do not change despite his personal challenges.

What I like about Tango is its intensity and the story telling behind it that combines very expressive/passionate facial expressions and beautiful choreography. It is like each movement from the dancers deserves a picture and/or drawing in itself. This is why I didn’t much like the zoom by the cameraman […]
