Here are two videos I want to share. (Mainly, I want K Swiss to learn how to play Gymnopedie #1!) The music, to me, is extrodinarily poignant. You should've seen me for the first time. It was like my heart slowed down and I was seeing everything in black and white. I know that doesn't make sense, but oh well.

Guitar or Piano


This is also, um, a little unorthodox for Gymnopedie #1 guess, but I found it very beautiful. Gymnopedie Pole Dance. And this one? This one is just a little different. Cute though. Ohtaikue's Gymnopedie.

And remember... it's all one song, so don't watch them all at once and get bored.

Dear Frog-- What can I say but: I told you so? I don't mean to sound so harsh, but from the beginning, I figured I was destined to "fuck up," as I so put it. And, well, I fucked it all up.

Scorpion _______________________________________ The Scorpion and the Frog A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back. The frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion says, "Becaus...

LONGAVILLE: You swore to that Berowne, and the rest! BEROWNE. By yea and nay, sir, then I swore in jest. What is the end of study, let me know. KING. Why, that to know which else we should not know. BEROWNE. Things hid and barr'd, you mean, from common sense? KING. Ay, that is study's god-like recompense. BEROWNE. As thus: to study where I well may dine, When I to feast expressly am forbid; Or study where to meet some mistress fine, When mistresses from common sense are hid; KING. These be the stops that hinder study quite, And train our intellects to vain delight. BEROWNE. Why, all delights are vain; KING: I've seen for days that you've got The ways that must be checked In you I never can detect The slightest signs of intellect Your mad on dances, think of the chances you neglect You never seem inclined to use your mind You're just a fella who Has got his brains in his dancing shoes Take a lesson from me BEROWNE: I'd rather Charleston LONGAVILLE and DUMAINE: Do...
