Some things just give you away! Different sounding food is one of them ~ otherwise I would have never guessed! Hopefully you aren't on a continent that loves vegemite or that equivalent stuff in England - ugh
You should do the MapQuest thing and amaze us with how far away you are from WDW ~ I forget at the moment which thread that is on...I'll think of it though...

I don't think Canadian since that would be on the same continent, I was thinking UK or Australia...

I have numerous musical talents!
It all started out in elementary school where I learned how to rock out on the Recorder. I could play "Hot Cross Buns" pretty well
Since then I have continued to grow as a musician. I have evolved into an okay guitarist on Guitar Hero or Rock Band and a really good drummer on Rock Band!
See we all have musical talents!

I learned to play the Piano as a child and later taught music for 12 years. I won the competed and wrote a couple of songs. But then I decided I wanted a real job.

The kids and recitals just became too much.
Reality is I was a practice-o-holic and got burned out. To play a 47 page Piano Sonata takes hours and hours of dedication. Now I rarely play.

I didn't know that Guitar Hero counted as a musical instrument?! Not to toot my own horn (no pun intended) but I'm pretty good!

We should rock out sometime Len!

I think it should count. It is making music somehow. The drums should definitely count since all the banging is technically music
We all should get together one day. We could have subsonic rock band.

Marmite! Thanks! I couldn't think of what it was called in the UK! I visited some friends, smeared some on a biscuit before they could warn me and took a big bite - I almost died! They say it is an acquired taste, but trust me, I didn't even
try the Vegemite in Australia! Yay! I love meeting new people from different countries
And I think a fire around which to play all our various musical instruments would be great ~ we'll make you the official fire-tender, marshmellow-roaster

Very nice part of the UK as I remembered when I visited - as long as it's not raining.

But we need someone to write song lyrics and be the lead vocals. Who?
WAKE UP, BOILERDUDE!!! OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING! You can finally put those talents and that golden throat to good use! Finally some Polynesian Christmas songs!

Yes, we can have B-dude sing his songs! But, I might be tempted to smack him with my guitar.
