Hi,

I was born the same day you were, John. Different country, different social background (non-rural, working class). But I am your time twin. In many ways I feel like we have a similar personality, similar politics and similar orientation. My artistic talents are more visual than musical, though. I know you are a bit interested in martial stuff, so here is a You Tube clip of the martial art I practice. The dude who is demonstrating is the son of my master in Aikido.

Thank you for your music. I think you took our birth time and blessed it.
