No worries. CO could post this every day and I’d still melt into a redheaded puddle of “awwww!” Really, a daily post of this Lord/Lady of Cute-itude wouldn’t bother me a bit. Every. Single. Day. Is. Not. A. Problem.
*wonders if anyone noticed the oh-so-subtle hinting*
And now, The Star-Spangled Banner, from the percussion section:
Ohhh, say can you BOOM CRASH!
By the dawn’s early BOOM CRASH!
What so proudly we BOOM CRASH!
At the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright BOOM CRASH!
Through the perilous BOOM CRASH!
O’er the ramparts we BOOM CRASH!

BOOM BOOOOOOM; BOOM

BOOM BOOOOOOM; BOOM
BOOM BOOM BOOM
BOOOOOOM!
It took me *years* after I graduated high school and left marching band to stop hearing the parts I used to play in songs such as The Star-Spangled Banner. I played tenor saxophone, usually played sheet music arranged for trombone, and rarely got to play melody, so I got very accustomed to listening to underlying harmonies.
Band was the best part of highschool for me. I remember doing a spin turn during half-time and the top half of my clarinet went flying off across the field! (Played the ‘licorice stick before I switched to cymbals.)
Ladies and Gentlemen, “The Star Spangled Banner” as heard from the percussion section!

Ah so, kemo sabe! (This is what happens when you’re living in a country with only one English-speaking channel while growing up. Well, only one we could get.)
I do believe that this is one of the photos about which I had previously complained for being in portrait mode, not landscape, so I cannot save it as desktop wallpaper….Harrumph.
Has anyone counted those sweet toe noms? Not positive, but to these old eyes it looks like ‘mini-morris’ has six toes on that foot so proudly displayed! A possible relation to Ernest Hemingways Florida Keys Kitties?
Now that is bleenin’ cute!
Happy 4th!

And if you’re playin’ the cymbals (moi), then there’s a lot o’ twirlin’ and flashin’ going on with those ‘booms!’

I played tenor saxophone, usually played sheet music arranged for trombone, and rarely got to play melody, so I got very accustomed to listening to underlying harmonies.
Or to stop tapping my foot in time with music or attempting to lead off with left foot while walking and listening to music…
LOTs of off-beats in there.

Actually, I think that kinda improves the song. Just a wee bit.
