Always Look on the Bright Side of Life


When you're feeling in the dumps, don't be silly chumps.  落ち込んだときは、くよくよせずに


Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing.  口をすぼめて口笛を吹こう。それが肝心だよ。

Bongo Bongo !


Bongo is my favorite Latin percussion instrument and I love the way Johnny "Dandy" Rodriguez plays it. 






Me gusta la música afrocubana mucho!!!

Jazzman

Bought this Logicool webcam at a giveaway price, but it didn’t work on my computer.
ロジクールのウェブカメラを捨て値で買ったものの、作動せず。


So I took it apart and recycled its parts; the housing turned into a double bass, my favorite musical instrument.
仕方ないのでバラし、パーツをリサイクル。筐体は大好きな楽器、ウッドベースになりました。
