Tuesday night follies.

Please to be enjoying this funny from the Nice Young Samurai From An Tir. http://tousando.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=3883

Taiko was awesome with a side of Whee! Clint being Clint (i.e., a taiko maniac who likes makin' stuff) built a pair of shime daiko with stands and brought them to class last week. Shannon-sensei decided to incorporate them into class and I got to play them twice. The first time was fun, the second time, paired with Josh on a break-neck duet* of Shinkyoku was a-freakin-mazing. *That's right, just two of us. Josh is the guy with the wicked hand speed on o-daiko and he started fast, but with the small, light sticks we were playing with (and the fact that teaming with him had me a bit amped to begin with), I kept up. Hung out a little bit after class to noodle around with them a bit in a room at the other side of the building before we all had to go home. So much fun!

Thanks for sharing the link to the speech, it was amusing. My mother has been a member of Toastmasters since I was a child, so I pointed her to it, too.

He's the young man from An Tir who's coming down for our Twelfth Night 'cause I'm inspiring and stuff. Looking forward to meeting him.

LJ could use a "+1" or "like" button. :D Particularly for your Taiko Exploits, but I must say that the "Craft Store Ninja" speech is also major LOL too! XD
