I made a new Facebook Friend yesterday. He sent me this message.
"Thank you for accepting me.I’m glad. I play 10 holes, and learning Jazz style. Of course, I love blues music, Irish, and trad music too. I believe harmonica is like a language and people who play harp is living in same nation state. Have a nice weekend! Greetings From Japan."
I was struck by his statement that "people who play harp is lving in same nation state". Through my business, I have developed friendships with people all over the world, including some who live in countries that have at times been considered enemies of the U.S. The harmonica is something that transcends boundaries and connects people regardless of how different they are in other aspects of their life. Its kind of surreal.

I once ran the word harmonica through Google Translate, and then cut and pasted each result into YouTube. You get different results! Not all of them were different, but a lot of different results. There were a ton of hits for a Greek chromatic player, and there seemed to be a ton of hits from Iran.
But everyone seemed to be having fun. :)
