I’ve spent a fair amount of time in Nepal. Those kids are adorable. The Nepalese are the happiest people I’ve ever encountered.

If you stay too long. It’s hard to return to our spoiled unhappy people.

Isn’t that the truth! Here in about 6 weeks I’m headed to Philippines to spend some time with the family there. Similar happy people Our youngest stray rugrat turns 4 in July.

As a kid, my mom listened to a little Gypsy Jazz - Django Reinhardt

Listened to him a lot when I was younger; might still have a cassette tape of him somewhere. He was an amazingly talented musician, and perhaps more amazing because of his injuries.

Never heard of Stephen Wilson Jr. until two days ago. This is a tremendous song. Not many people writing songs like this anymore.

As stated earlier, I've learned to enjoy a variety of international music and music video. Here is another one from Nepal that falls into the Bal Geet category- loosely translated that means a children's simple repeating and rhyming song usually designed to encourage interest in self-identity or the importance of education. Youtube link to a Nepali Bal Geet of a girl's identity as a "Nepali girl" in a fantasy. This one uses some very simple yet low tech, clever, cyclic jump cut editing to good effect.
