memories

Andy is telling the story of how he discovered whistling.

It begins back when he was a wee boy in England. Every morning an old man would stroll by his bedroom window, whistling, just as a young Andy was waking up...

“It transcended through my window and into my lobes and it just resonated. It went from a faint to loud and then faded out again as he passed by.”
