In 1817, the Russian Navy brig, Rurik, under the command of Otto August von Kotzebue visited Guam for less than a week. Despite their short stay, the expedition collected a lexicon of 181 CHamoru words as well as captured images of island life, such as this, of a CHamoru family.
@SwitchedOnPop Revisiting @thecure Head on the Door album. I still love “Six Different Ways” so much. Been on repeat.
I especially love the uncommon 6/8 time signature in a pop band song, it gives a feel of stumbling forward. The interesting drum beat and piano ostinato are perfect.
@HDCares bring back ship to store here on Guam #1710.
We’ve been hit by a massive typhoon and need Home Depot to come through with ship to store. You used to have it, but it’s been taken away from us
@HomeDepot why won’t you ship to the Guam #1710 store anymore? You used to be the saving grace to us far flung Americans. Better pricing and services.
Now that there was a devastating typhoon, we need you even more. Help us out
@drummersalmanac love love love the count-in videos. Can you please do “This Charming Man” by The Smiths?? The guitar intro is so deceptive to me, I can’t ever get the initial hit
