Okay, being a little esoteric here. Sure 2 units added to 2 units (whatever the unit is) will add to 4 unitsĀ (whatever the unit is). A man with 2 balls arrives and gives you 2 balls. Another man (or woman) with 2 balls give you the 2 balls…you carefully count them and they’re exactly 4 […]

Break Time!
It’s break time…from whatever you’re doing or normally do on the hamster wheel š Let’s play a simple game of solving a relatively simple math test (you’re encouraged NOT to be an academic/math pro! but a normal guy like the rest of us). So here we go… Enjoy and comment with your answer (all are […]
The Curious Cumin
Cumin is presently grown in many countries including but not limited to India, Sicily, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and China. Not only due to its usage in dishes as spice, but perhaps even due its newly re-discovered health benefits. Benefits of Cumin seeds: 1. Beneficial for digestion 2. Lowers cholesterol 3. Effective for diabetes 4. […]
The Remarkable Tamarind
Hi again, today I want to touch upon one of the most remarkable, amazing fruits on Earth. It grows on a tree, and produces fruits that come naturally in pods. Although originally grown and consumed only in Asia and some parts of Africa, now it’s being grown in many countries around the world…it is Tamarind. […]
My Latin-Arabic guitar hack
Hi again, so this one is about how to simulate (fake?) latin or even with an added flavor of arabic tune/music in the guitar. Total improvisation…this is NOT a song. I’m just demonstrating that the notes can played with to create your own song while retaining the “flavor” of those cultures. Here I’m just goofing […]
Guitar practice: Chris Isaak’s Wicked Game – guitar intro
Howdy, here’s my guitar rendition of Wicked Game game Intro (raw!). This is one of the most beautiful, simple and fluid songs ever made, with really nothing complex on the guitar. Beauty is in its simplicity. It appears that the lead, and chords are all within Bm, A, and Emaj. Anyway, I’m playing it with […]
Guitar practice: Chuck Berry’s Run Rudolph Run
Howdy, so for Xmas, I literally learned the notes for Chuck Berry’s Run Rudolph RunĀ a couple of hours ago, and had so much already just playing it! I’ll get better with more practice, but shows that anyone can do it, if they have the ears š The notes are correct but the rhythm is […]
Understanding World-trade @ Pre-K Level :)
Howdy, so today I present to you a basic picture of where we are (pivoted on USA) in terms on political interests, trades and sources of frictions (even a pre-K should get this!). This is true at this time (things will change over time, I’m sure). Disclaimer: This is not an exhaustive list by any […]
Time and perceptions by age
Hello again, today I’m presenting you a very simple visual that expresses my observations based on my son’s life (who’s just turned 19), my life, people around me (including family, friends, colleagues). This is not scientific and there may or may not be data to support it, but that’s beside the point. The point is […]
My 2nd attempt at rendition of Last of the Mohicans theme
Again, used my guitar to simulate the music. Second attempt, a little better I think. Used 1 electric guitar used connected to my small amp with Reload fx. Then played intro and chorus as separate tracks and recorded them into an open source app; then merged the tracks and edited the length and added some […]
