Hmmmm ... TRAIN 'em up YOUNG!!!
Many great calls already ... I also would choose MANY ... and far more than just fiction!!! I've never defined Classics as Fiction in my realm ... Some of mine might repeat, I'll just fire away in no particular order, and prolly forget a great deal; forgive me all you who were neglected here ... Firstly, most importantly - I would that intensive Anatomy, Physiology, Aromatherapy, Herbology and Nutrition be taught that all have an owner's manual and ability to understand and care for their health! ALL the Myths To Kill a Mockingbird The Secret Life of Plants Power vs Force Vibrational Medicine The collected, or at least some of the works of, and some biographies concerning: Dr Seuss Shel Silverstein Mark Twain/Samuel Clemens Tolstoy Dostoyevsky Einstein Gandhi Mother Teresa St Francis of Assisi Rumi Kahlil Gibran Confucius Aristotle Socrates Martin Luther King, Jr. Gurdjieff Maya Angelou Nelson Mandela Ralph Waldo Emerson Henry David Thoreau Chekov Keats Yeats Benjamin Franklin Abraham Lincoln Oscar Wilde Edgar Allan Poe Aldous Huxley Brontë Elizabeth Barrett Browning Alcott Frost Blake Ayn Rand Steinbeck Rudyard Kipling Hesse Kurt Vonnegut Isaac Asimov Wilhelm Reich Carl Jung Aldous Huxley Tesla Descartes Archimedes Pythagoras Euclid Gauss Carl Sagan Gertrude Stein Joan Didion I'll stop ... I've undoubtedly forgotten many ... Series: Johnny Gruelle's Raggedy Anne and Andy Carlos Castenade's Don Juan Tolkien's Hobbit Robert Anton Wilson's Cosmic Trigger With all our contributions??? @-->--- ... I think we just consecrated the Mingle Home School ready and open for business!!! |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKT1P7x_Pzo&feature=related My girl, my girl, don't lie to me, Tell me where did you sleep last night. In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun don't ever shine. I would shiver the whole night through. My girl, my girl, where will you go? I'm going where the cold wind blows. In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun don't ever shine. I would shiver the whole night through Her husband, was a hard working man, Just about a mile from here. His head was found in a driving wheel, But his body never was found. My girl, my girl, don't lie to me, Tell me where did you sleep last night. In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun don't ever shine. I would shiver the whole night through. My girl, my girl, where will you go? I'm going where the cold wind blows. In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun don't ever shine. I would shiver the whole night through. My girl, my girl, don't lie to me, Tell me where did you sleep last night. In the pines, in the pines, Where the sun don't ever shine. I would shiver the whole night through. My girl, my girl, where will you go? I'm going where the cold wind blows. In the pines, …the pines, ……… sun, ……….shine. |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZjGUSVdrZ8&feature=related Suddenly the night has grown colder The God of love preparing to depart Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder They slip between the sentries of the heart Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure They gain the light, they formlessly entwine And radiant beyond your widest measure They fall among the voices and the wine It's not a trick, your senses, all deceiving A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost Even though she sleeps upon your satin Even though she wakes you with a kiss Do not say the moment was imagined Do not stoop to strategies like this As someone long prepared for this to happen Go firmly to the window, drink it in Exquisite music, Alexandra laughing Your first commitments tangible again And you who had the honor of her evening And by that honor had your own restored Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving Alexandra leaving with her Lord Even though she sleeps upon your satin Even though she wakes you with a kiss Do not say the moment was imagined Do not stoop to strategies like this As someone long prepared for the occasion In full command of every plan you wrecked Do not choose a coward's explanation That hides behind the cause and the effect And you who were bewildered by a meaning Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost |

Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry There's a lobby with nine hundred windows There's a tree where the doves go to die There's a piece that was torn from the morning And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take this waltz with the clamp on its jaws Oh I want you, I want you, I want you On a chair with a dead magazine In the cave at the tip of the lily In some hallways where love's never been On a bed where the moon has been sweating In a cry filled with footsteps and sand Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take its broken waist in your hand This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz With its very own breath of brandy and Death Dragging its tail in the sea There's a concert hall in Vienna Where your mouth had a thousand reviews There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking They've been sentenced to death by the blues Ah, but who is it climbs to your picture With a garland of freshly cut tears? Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz Take this waltz it's been dying for years There's an attic where children are playing Where I've got to lie down with you soon In a dream of Hungarian lanterns In the mist of some sweet afternoon And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow All your sheep and your lilies of snow Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay Take this waltz, take this waltz With its "I'll never forget you, you know!" This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz ... And I'll dance with you in Vienna I'll be wearing a river's disguise The hyacinth wild on my shoulder, My mouth on the dew of your thighs And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook, With the photographs there, and the moths And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty My cheap violin and my cross And you'll carry me down on your dancing To the pools that you lift on your wrist Oh my love, Oh my love Take this waltz, take this waltz It's yours now. It's all that there is. |

True! --nervous --very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses --not destroyed --not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things in hell. How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily --how calmly I can tell you the whole story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4s9V8aQu4c Yes, he was stone, stone dead. I placed my hand upon the heart and held it there many minutes. There was no pulsation. He was stone dead. His eve would trouble me no more. If still you think me mad, you will think so no longer when I describe the wise precautions I took for the concealment of the body. But anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this derision! I could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer! I felt that I must scream or die! and now --again! --hark! louder! louder! louder! louder! "You scream ... But no one seems to hear ... I'll see YOU on the DARK side of the Moon ... " |

ZOMG I love horror. I do. The Shining is the scariest film that I have ever seen. Most of my favorite horror movies have psychological or sociological implications that make them terrifying outside of whatever gore there may be (but I do love ultra-violence sometimes). I guess terror is just one the most intense emotions to capture and when it's done well it's fantastic. Dawn of the Dead is one of my favorites too. Like a drama or a comedy or anything it has great characters and great acting. You actually care about whether or not the people live or die and you place them in the most extreme life or death circumstances. In that sense there's a bit of the roller-coaster rhythm. Plus chainsaws are cool. Didya know that the first Boulder apartment scenes in The Shining were filmed in my building??? And ... Stephen King lived here back in the day ... Our hallway carpets were all spooky, fresh, wet blood red up until 1 year ago ... And we have an elevator that, of course, opens out to this hallway ... SO eerily resemblin' the blood elevator to hall scene in The Shining ... I am CERTAIN it was the scene's inspiration ... It was freaky! And we have some interesting hauntings here, too ... When I first was shone the building ... and saw the carpet ... I said... NO WAY!!! Good thang the apartment is FINE inside!!! Wild, uh??? Gotta jack ... I'll check y'all on da flip ... Thanx for sharin' ... |

May I suggest the balcony seats ... =)
And, no lobbin' rotten eggs or 'maters ... Only cash, nursery rhymes and ROSES !!! |
|
|
|
So do I!!!
|
|
|
|
I know summer has to come to get crops in ...
Otherwise, I just can't see the use ... =p |
|
|
|
Yeah ... I saw ya list that book ... Could be a VERY interesting read ...
I could much better read about it, than see ... Yanno? It is the ones that get too visual ... I can take the suggestion ... that's about it ... Funny, i so easily share films ... The Reading List? ... I always somehow feel violated listin' my books ... Almost as if sharin' a journal entry ... odd, huh??? |
