my sister Virginia is a producer based out of brooklyn. she has put on a variety of productions - from short films to a play "Tender" that went to the Edinburgh, Scotland fringe festival. right now the production that makes the most money for her is producing mock Iraqi and Afghani villages for the military to train troops headed to the battlefield. So she criss-crosses the country training troiops before they embark.
my brother Bill, also based out of brooklyn, is an internet start-up king whose internet promotions website nabbr.com went so big the financial end of it started to drive him crazy. he was pulling down $100G/yr when he abruptly quit to start-up a new company which is presently in the works.
serendipity has landed Virginia, Bill and I in Grayling, MIchigan for 24hrs. Virginia is wrapping up operations at Camp Grayling Army National Guard Base - and Bill and I are headed up to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to build a 10ft single person woodstrip canoe at Great Lakes Boatbuilding School in Cedarville, MI
here are photos of us taken today in and around Grayling

thanks for the offer, but the only glue you're ever supposed to use on anything in the violin family of instruments is hide glue. just in case anything ever needs to be adjusted or if god-forbid the repairman doesn't do it quite right, it's reversible. and plus if it's ever damaged somehow, for instance if it's dropped, the glue is brittle enough that i'll make a clean break whereas stronger glues with make a more jagged break, often taking off some of the surrounding wood.
and anyways, although i dabbled very briefly as a luthier, i'd rather leave it up to the professionals.
hope you're well.
I will admit I'm a technology doofus.... *download high end functionality onto it using cannon firmware*... this doesn't make any sense to my brain. But I'm interested in anything that saves moola. I use the Canon XTI.... bought it about three years ago. It was a great starter camera. And I have grown with it.... updating lenses over the years. I'm not sure what they run nowadays.
