I have no clue what she's supposed to be doing - but she sure is good at
it....

And I have to concur with the "Good thing she shaved her pits..."
observation.

Why, hair is natural.

When I fed the YouTube page to GoogleTranslate that is the impression I
got.

It's a Jew's harp, but a *Yakut* Jew's harp...

Clicking on a few other links, I fell into Tuvan throat singing...
*really* cool...

There was a movie called "Mongol" that I liked a lot and now I know what
a lot of the music in it was....

There are other videos on the page and one of them I believe was the same gal and I think it was titled "Fight Song". I bookmarked it and plan to look at the series of videos later. o_O

Good music to commit suicide with.

I didn't mind that, but it was a bit worrying when they started knocking
on the front door and asking for money to go away.

Good music to commit suicide with.




I've talked a lot of people out of suicide simply by reading them that
famous poem by John Giorno.

In brief, it was about a guy who committed suicide and woke up into a
new world "where everything was exactly the same.....only a little bit
worse."

Could be true for all I know.

Anyway, his poem has kept at least a few people alive.

I've thought the strongest argument is advanced by some Asian religions
that essentially say 'You're going to have to keep doing this until you
get it right.' in a Groundhog Day world.

I guess. While I realize the important part drummers play in a band I've
been sort of allergic to drum solos since Ginger Baker.


Q: How is a drum solo like a sneeze?
A: You can tell it's coming, but you can’t do anything about it.

Q: What's the difference between a drummer and a large pizza?
A: A pizza can feed a family of four.

Q: What do you call a drummer in a three-piece suit?
A: "The Defendant"

Q: What's the difference between a drummer and a vacuum cleaner?
A: You have to plug one in before it sucks.

Q: How do you get a drummer to stop biting his nails?
A: Make him wear shoes.

Q: What does it mean when a drummer is in your bed gasping for breath and
calling your name?
A: You didn't hold the pillow down long enough.

Q: What do you call someone who hangs out with musicians?
A: Drummer.

And to make it relevant to AHR:

Q: How many drummers does it take to wallpaper a room?
A: Three, if you slice them thin enough!

The best anti-suicide quote I ever heard runs along the same lines. A
survivor of a fall off the GG bridge told rescuers that on the way down he
thought: "There's really nothing SO wrong in my life that I can't fix it --
EXCEPT THIS." Ironically a fair number of survivors do it again and are
successful the second time.

True, she's not an oddball like Trump

Two important observations:

1 - She is *damn* good on the Jew's harp
2 - I'm glad she shaved her pits

I think I saw them in The Wilde Ones with Marlon Brandoe.
