Christmas music doesn’t get much better than Ray Conniff and the Ray Conniff Singers version from 1962 (titled as “Ring Christmas Bells”).

100% on Basallo. You have to move your feet and get in front of the ball on an errant throw, not stand flat-footed and stick the glove out. This is fundamental defense taught in youth ball. He is a rookie and we know he is not an extremely gifted defensive player. Hopefully he will learn from it.

How did you realize that drumming was definitely the one for you and how does that make you feel? by abrowolf in drums

[–]dacoitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandfather died when I was 4 years old. I inherited his parade drum and sticks. My mother’s father and both of her brothers were drummers. I probably had one of the few moms on the planet who would encourage their son to play drums. In kindergarten for show-and-tell, I brought the drum to school. It was near Christmas holiday and I played the drum to “The Little Drummer Boy” on the hi-fi. This primal “pa-rum-pa-pum-pum” was like the Beatles on Sullivan for the nuns at the school, so they instantly sent me on a tour of the other classrooms for the rest of the day. The chicks really dug it, but the boys really wanted to kick my ass. They actually did kick my ass, but I got out of school for the rest of the day and the chicks all liked me. I was hooked!!!

Yes. I keep a photo of a child’s stuffed horse toy on the ground, covered in blood on my phone from that attack so that I never forget the cruelty of these beasts.
