Ah how I love the 💙BB's 👐🏻BlueButts🦋 we got the BEST ppl but they're just more quietly being the best, doing their thing, not shouting so much abt it.

My best friend builds violins (viola da gamba, actually). Also, she.. her hands can make anything she sees. Knit complex patterns.

.. a tent w a custom logo fr XRMassage. Cook fermented foods - and invite moi for a tasting <3.

Just quietly, you know, living a joyful, playful, excellent life, making everything they touch better as they pass.

Ordinary Hero.

Is this like an orchestral harp, with pedals to make the strings sharp or flat depending on the key of the music?

acearsenault.bsky.social•25 days ago

It's more like a lever folk harp. : }

So you can change the key of it. I'm estimating somewhere between 20 and 30 strings in total. So smaller then the large 47 string concert harp.

Andrew-thanks!

Your projects sound fascinating and fun! Best of luck with them!

I used to work for the sister of Reggie Workman (played bass for Coltrane). Met him once. Incredible human.

Thanks! : }
I would have loved to meet Reggie Workman at least once.

jonsam1961b.bsky.social•7 days ago

Oh, I was very very lucky, to be sure. And, you know, did not feel entitled at all. More like, "why the heck am I allowed in this room?" Habiba, his sister, was ridiculously nice to me. I was the slowest worker in history. She told the other workers, "Jon has his own pace..." Imagine that!?!

acearsenault.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hey nothing wrong with working at your own pace. : }
As long as things get done within a reasonable time.

well, that's not American!!!😀😀😀

have to work until you need supplemental oxygen, otherwise you are a failure, a loser, un-American.

acearsenault.bsky.social•4 days ago

I can relate. I've had jobs like that which consumed all of my at work and at home time before.

codetiger.bsky.social•2 days ago

Cool, good luck with the project :)
