I Want My Tears Back - Nightwish. The treetops, the chimneys, the snowbed stories, winter grey. Wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheat. A railroad, across water, the scent of grandfatherly love. Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly's wings -. Where is the wonder? Where's dear Alice knocking on the door? Where's the trapdoor that takes me there? Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare? Where is the wonder? Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for? He lost in me.

Dandelions - Five Iron Frenzy. In a field of yellow flowers, underneath the sun. Bluest eyes that spark with lightning - boy, with shoes undone. He is young, so full of hope, revelling in tiny dreams. Filling up his arms with flowers, right for giving any queen! Running to her, beaming bright while cradling his prize. A flickering of yellow light within his mother's eyes -. She holds them to her heart, keeping them where they'll be safe. Clasped within her very marrow, dandelions in a vase! From the shad...

Ethics and Madness in Beowulf. Okay, interesting fact time! That the authoritative translation of Beowulf (by Frederick Klaeber) makes the interesting choice of translating the word differently depending on to whom it is applied - 'warrior'/'hero' for Beowulf, 'monster'/'demon'/'fiend' for Grendel or Grendel's mother, 'wretch'/'monstrous woman' for æglæcwif (a feminine form used for Grendel's mother) - does not simplify matters. Thinking about good and evil. Balance Slays the Demon - Poets of the Fall.

Can someone explain this? And experiments which may cause it are strongly discouraged if not outright forbidden by ethics committees. My question is - why? What inflicted insight basically amounts to is exposing the less savoury or comfortable facets of a person's own psyche and forcing them to confront them. How could this be considered an undesirable result? The test subject believes something about himself or herself that is wrong, and the researcher is not only helping him or her to Know Thyself.

As I continued to try to justify my unfounded thoughts on the matter it also occurred to me that determination was far less important to your success than accurate judgement - since, after all, if your ideas are wrong your inner drive is worthless and if your ideas are right then your determination just hastens what is ultimately inevitable! At some point I discovered and became obsessed with the reductio ad absurdum. Oh, and G. K. Chesterton's introduction to Orthodoxy. Thinking about g k chesterton.

Library of Gödel: Mint the Coin!
http://dataphilia.blogspot.com/2013/01/mint-coin.html
I've just heard about this plan for the U. S. National Treasury to mint a $1,000,000,000,000 platinum Coin and deposit it in the Federal Reserve in order to alleviate congressional spending issues. Read about it here. My opinion: this sounds equal parts amazing, ingenious, and absurd. Therefore the government should do it and I fully support it. I propose the following additions to the plan:. Fine - have them scratch a really simple design into it and keep its true appearance a secret! Everyone knows rar...

The Cat and the Moon - The Lord of the Rings. It's a good day for nonsense! There’s an inn of old renown. Where they brew a beer so brown. Moon came rolling down the hill. One Hevnsday night to drink his fill! On a three-stringed fiddle there,. Played the Ostler’s Cat so fair. The hornèd Cow that night was seen. To dance a jig upon the green! Called by the fiddle to the middle of the muddle where the cow with a caper sent the small dog squealing,. Downsides went up - hey! Outsides went wide,. But the Moo...
