  <div class="message">There's a bar in Ottawa that specializes in Scotch Whisky, <a href="http://www.thehighlanderpub.com/" target="_new">The Highlander Pub on Rideau St.</a><br><br>
When I'm there, I like to try the scotch of the day, usually something half-price that is normally out of my price range.  In comparison I'm often not sure I like the higher end product as much as the middle range stuff. I've had similar experiences with trying more expensive wines at <a href="http://www.vineyards.ca" target="_new">Vineyard's</a><br><br>
One knowledgeable bartender informed me that sometimes when you sample a high end product your taste buds tell you that…<span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/what-s-new/blog/384506/developing-taste">Read more</a></span></div>

  <div class="message">The other day I was at a diner and the busboy came along cleaning the countertops as quickly as he could, knocking over a closed container of salsa. He chuckled to himself, picking it up and wiping even faster to make up for lost time. One hand knocked over another bottle while the other knocked the salt shaker over, spilling salt everywhere. This time he looked sheepish as he reset everything quickly, having a final pass of the washcloth and leaving the area to dry, but clearly still covered with salt…<span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/what-s-new/blog/356543/full-speed-ahead">Read more</a></span></div>

  <div class="message">Bjork is one of my favourites.  In high school I saw and heard the completely contrasting videos for "Isobel" and "It's Oh So Quiet" and I think I must have been impressed that someone could do such remarkably different things stylistically and yet still sound like only they could sound.&nbsp; <br><br> <br><br>
At one point I was listening to her record "Vespertine" with another musician/Bjork-fan.&nbsp; I mentioned how one song was completely in the Lydian mode.  His response was that he didn't like to analyze her music because it…<span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/what-s-new/blog/354173/bjork-analyzing-popular-music">Read more</a></span></div>

  <div class="message">Welcome to my online journal!<br><br>
This has been a long time in the works, I have been collecting ideas for years that inspire me, and I thought writing short posts online would be a great way to work through them and share them.<br><br>
Alongside any musical stuff I'm working on I also have little stories and ideas about creativity and working full time as an artist that seem to keep coming up in conversation. I'm going to try to mix it up so there's something for everyone, not just those specifically into jazz and…<span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/what-s-new/blog/354194/boud-for-thought">Read more</a></span></div>
