If you've been to my website before, you may notice that things have changed a bit. I have decided to make a fresh start on my site, with a more holistic approach to me as a person as opposed to a strict focus on my music.

Explanation....Originally I planned for this blog to be a personal online journal.

My Dear Excellent Will, I urge you to not stay too much long talking and discussing in the closed loop of the UN. To me it’s like the Chinese society in the Middle Age. No openness, a choice to remain closed and isolated in its own stereotypes: in ultimate analysis no progress. no boldness, no achievement.

Yes, the UN, like the League of Nations before it, owes its existence largely to the United States. However, even though that is the case, and even though the headquarters in UN may be in a Rockefeller-donated building, I fail to see how this means that the UN “exists courtesy of the hosting country.” Surely there is s... | non-profit | 17 | male | 1 | 1414354 | 1414354:1 | non-profit | 24 | twenties | leo |
My Dear William, I kindly but firmly remind you that the so-called United Nations have been created by the United States of America. The Manhattan’s ground where now are the UN buildings were donated by the multi-millionaire-Democrat-Oil-Magnate Rockefeller.

Perhaps not surprisingly, I have to disagree with you. Again. There is no doubt in my mind that the UN is good for mankind. The trouble comes from mixing together several different issues, I think. When discussing the UN, one must consider what the UN practically is , what it ideally should be , and what it practically... | non-profit | 17 | male | 1 | 1414354 | 1414354:3 | non-profit | 24 | twenties | leo |
I won't argue that Communism is rather Utopian in nature, and possibly even doomed to fail.

Unfotunately there is still a lot of Communism out there. Communism basically is an utopistic evolution and interpretation of one of the first tenet of Christianity: we are all equal!

The obvious point is that its nearly impossible to focus solely on the aesthetic elements of a work, since a context always exists (even if that context is your own experience).

After mulling it over, heres my basic thought re: the negative connotation of smooth saxophone solos.
