I just happened to be looking at the website for the no-kill animal shelter when I realized you could scroll down to see photo and bios of the adoptable cats and dogs. Now Larry didn't jump out at me because he's the most...

I told @TheHorse I’d write about a rare, and probably unique, musical instrument that I saw in the Collie Museum. The main ‘body’ of this is a kerosene tin. These were very common in my parents’ day, and were often flattened out...

lilacskies That is so interesting. I've never seen one of those before. It would fetch for a lot in antique auctions.

DE I wonder how that would sound? We used to flatten one of dad's Prince Albert tobacco tins and nail it to a piece of wood and use it to guide a bike wheel down the road. It was a lot of fun running down the road chasing it. (I...

Anish Asokan I am sure @TheHorse would love this post. It sounds like an amazing and perhaps a unique instrument. It is incredible how everyday items such as kerosene tins were repurposed so creatively in the past. Not sure if people have that creativity level at present....

The Horse I would love to play one. Here in the US, some old-timey musicians use a wash tub bass. I bet they do there too. You don't change the notes by "fretting." You change the notes by increasing or decreasing the tension on the string. I am pretty good with such...

Max Crisp I’ve never heard that phrase, and it doesn’t really make sense to me. “Look after the pennies, and the pounds will look after themselves” is a common saying here. I rarely spend money on frivolous things, so I think I fit into the “frugal” category. Some...
