Needle Drop No.1
My turntable has a mind of its own.
Track: Sophia Loren – Soldi Soldi Soldi from the Boccaccio 70 soundtrack. A great find at the swap meet.

A New Year’s greeting from the Funks with a little help from the Swedes.

Kai Funk and Wagnalls Vol.1
Note to self: Got to stop saying the S word so fllippantly around the little man. For ten minutes, Kai kept repeating what sounded like “Oh sh**!”
Oh yeah Kai has gone from “Mine!” to “Let go!” to “I’m first!” Yeaaaaaah!

One night in Bangkok…!
Costanoa Eco Resort for Drew and Eric’s Wedding, Pescadero CA – 8/3/08
Kai in the midst of an intense game with another person his age while proud dads watch in the wings.
The boys after a while took the heads off the pawns (as you can see) and were beating them with it.
These things are full of sand so I was pretty amazed that Kai could lift and move them.

Kai Loves Vinyl
It’s been a while since the last post, and since that last post, Kai has grown a lot. A LOT!
Kai has always loved music, but one thing distinct about Kai’s personality these days, is his appreciation for vinyl records – LPs, 45s, 12″, 10″, you name it, he’ll listen to it. In fact, if there was a bigger advocate for this durable, long-standing music format – it would be Kai.
He loves the physicality of records. He watches them spin, and when the needle drops on the record’s surface, he KNOWS that it’ll produce sound. In fact, we’ve caught him a few times, where Lisa and I are listening to a CD in the living room, and he’ll walk up to the stereo, stand on his tippy toes to look, and wonder why there’s music playing but yet the turnable isn’t spinning. If I put on a record, he’ll ask me to pick him up so he can look to see what’s playing. Even better – he’ll point to the turntable demanding to hear some music.
Another aspect of vinyl records that Kai finds intriguing are LP covers. He’s especially fascinated by the back cover of A Tribe Called Quest’s Midnight Marauders. He stares at the faces of hip hop legendaries and finds some of their expressions funny.

Happy Holidaze!
Dusted off the lighting rig and camera once again for the holiday photo. Set it up in the office and…CLICK! And just like last year, Kai was such a great sport about it. Who knows what the Funks will do next year!
