"People try so hard to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher—a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. My Lord, no man can stand prominence these days. It's the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over."

-F. Scott Fitzgerald

 

  I don’t know precisely when he said this, but Fitzgerald passed away from here in 1940.  I can’t imagine what he might say about our leaders and our society now…

music #2

The climb

Open arms

My heart will go on

Sweet dreams

Big girls don’t cry

I want to be with you

Ain’t that America

Tainted love

In my heart

All I wanna do

Over my head

Unwritten

Tiny dancer

Baby I’m amazed by you

This Kiss

When the doves cry

Your Kiss

Hey there Delilah

Something to talk about

Bad day

She will be loved

Take it easy

Don’t you forget about me

How do I live without you

Hungry eyes

Hit me with your best chot

music # 1

Before he Cheats

Go ahead now

Crazy for you

Until the end of time

I melt with you

Give me one good reason

Unwell

Gotta be

I’ll be watching you

Just a Kiss Goodnight

Hero

Black Velvet

December

I need to know

Keep on loving you

Saved the best for last

God gave me You

Don’t Say

Total Eclipse of the Heart

Small town

Your Age in Days

Date: 11 - 5 - 1980 (MM-DD-YYYY).

You are 11397 days old.
That's 1628 weeks and 1 days.
Which is 31 years and 75 days, including 7 leap years*.
(= 31 years, 10 weeks and 5 days.)
In other words, that's 375 months.
Therefore, you are 31.2 years old.

You were born on a Wednesday, your last birthday was a Saturday
and your next one will be on a Monday.

That’s pretty scary….

Quote Of The Day

"Friends, both the imaginary ones you build for yourself out of phrases taken from a living writer, or real ones from college, and relatives, despite all the waste of ceremony and fakery and the fact that out of an hour of conversation you may have only five minutes in which the old entente reappears, are the only real means for foreign ideas to enter your brain."

-Nicholson Baker

I am still pondering the meaning and affects of this quote…
