The world is my school. Today my classroom was the Franz Josef Glacier way up in the mountains on the South Island of New Zealand. This is what happened: At preciecely 11:15 we were supposed to arrive at The Helicopter Line and get checked in. At 11:30 we went to the "boot room" to get suited up (socks, boots, crampons, jackets, gear bag). Lastly, at 12:00 sharp we got on the helicopter. Within 5-10 minutes we arrived at the Franz Josef Glacier. Once ...

Blue and white jeans, or blue jeans? I think to myself as I pick some shorts ou...

Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, what are these artists thinking? This is an instrument not a painting! Color doesn't help a didgeridoo's sound. That doesn't mean it can't have any artwork on it, but you want to make sure a musician made it. This is really easy to find out. You see, you can ask the person at the store, "What key is this didgeridoo in?" and if they say I don't know it was obviously made by an Artist. You can also do it the easy way and simply ask...
