Through the Looking Glass

Allrighty then…

Remember the old adage “You can take the boy out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy?”

mmmmm, well, take a looky at this here video. This gentleman would be wise to remember the words of Satchel Paige:

“Ain’t no man can avoid being born average. But ain’t no man got to be common.”

This is what you get in the digital age. In the old days; read - 5 years ago - The cost of tape/film was prohibitive enough that when one flubbed a take, the cameras stopped rolling…Not these days…

By the way; How come when you watch National Geographic, they explain how someone is the “first” to climb said mountain and yet someone else climbed up right behind him WHILE CARRYING forty lbs. of video gear?

Any how, here is today’s  Ebonics lesson:

In honor of “Talk Like A Pirate Day” Here is Google like a Pirate:

Google for Pirates

CraigsList - Weird Al

There are things they say

that can’t be seen,

can’t be held and can’t be dreamed.

There are worlds of wise-men

dead men too,

some too kind, and some too cruel.

There are tiny places

we all hide,

the caustic evils we store inside.

There are great big valleys

and hidden seas,

elemental genius  and the Pharasees’.

Time marches forward

time stands still,

Time slides backwards, always will.

Lost in shadows

mired by night

Then comes guidance then comes Light.
