A random view of a gamelan-playing, food-loving linguist from sunny Southern California.
One-two-three, four, five, six, se-ven, and gong and yah!
Of course, to the uninitiated, this is just pure nonsense. However, for those currently studying Javanese dance here, this should sound familiar enough... I was just reminded of this in gamelan class today. Enjoy!
There's a glimpse of a rather enigmatic person - someone who likes gamelan and cooking. Luckily, you won't find it here - all you get is the story of a big goofball... who just so happens to like gamelan and cooking. Hence, "Gongs and Tongs". This goofball also happens to be a grad student in linguistics.
