Song Of The Week

“Hey Hey My My" (Into The Black) Is a song written by Neil Young. This Song is true any way that you look at it, it’s nice to be able to hear it from someone as talented and inspirational as MR. Young. A part of a lyric from the song, "it's better to burn out than to fade away," became infamous in modern rock after being quoted in Kurt Cobains suicide note. Young later said that he was so shaken that he dedicated his 1994 album Sleeps With Angles to Kurt.

06/15/09 Looking Glass Quote

Through The Looking Glass:"Now, here you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that." said the Queen.
In order to get somewhere you must run twice as fast as you are running now…When you get there do you have to continually run twice as fast to stay where you have gotten?? If so, is there a place that you can run to in life where you wouldn’t have to run any further? And in what direction are you to run?

06/12/09 Writing On The Wall

Banksy (born 1975 in Bristol) is a well know pseudo-anonymous graffiti artist. He has made a few public appearances however the media is still skeptical if this alleged Banksy is the actual artist himself or just another one of his clever pranks. His art work is satirical often on topics such as politics, culture, and ethics. His Street art combines classic graffiti as well a distinct stencil technique.

6/12/09 Looking Glass Quote

Alice's Adventures in wonderland: 'But then,' thought Alice, 'shall I never get any older than I am now? That'll be a comfort, one way - never to be an old woman - but then - always to have lessons to learn! Oh, I shouldn't like that!'
If this is true that when you are grown you haven't any more lessons to learn, then I know that i am a far far way from growing up.
Art Work By Sir John Tenniel, the original artist for lewis carolls Alice's Adventures in wonderland & through the looking glass.

6/10/09 Looking Glass Quote

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: "Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next."

I have felt this way about my life for some time now, is it just taking me a long time to get where I'm destined to end up, or is the path really this long? Either way I guess we need to learn to enjoy the fall (or journey) no matter what the outcome may be.

Art work = 'through the looking glass' constructed in memory of Lewis Carroll by artist Jean Argent. This sculpture sits in the castle yard in Carroll's hometown of Guildford England.
