Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

I keep putting myself in the octopus' place. You can almost hear it say, "What the...?"

Didn't look to me that the seal had left enough of the octopus for the octopus to have an opinion.

I hope so. As if being made into dinner weren't bad enough, then you're ammo in a food fight? Talk about adding insult to injury. The kayaker seemed to take it all in stride, though; you'd think it was just another day at the office.

This is why I stay on land.

Tell us something.: I started with playing bamboo flutes. But I transitioned to primarily playing the Boehm flute a few lessons ago with the aim of getting good music instruction. However, I've been transitioning to playing Irish Traditional Music on simple flutes.

Tell us something.: I have played whistles and flutes for many years, but I am looking to get more serious with it. I mostly play Irish traditional music, but I want to expand into native american as well.
