Happy 65th birthday, Angkong!

Mini Me

cute as a button

Hello, did you miss me? I'm still here. I'm trying to organise my files on my Macbook (I only have 6 gigabytes of free space left!) before I update my blog. In the meantime, enjoy this video by Maddi Jane. What a cutie!



Right now she's an excellent mimic, but her bebop-ish improvisations towards the end of the song show that she's on her way to developing her own style.

Live long and prosper, Maddi Jane!

a beautiful mind

“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently-- they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Thank you, Mr. Jobs, for changing our world.
