The French Resistance has sent you a message: "Did yourMP3s arrive safely ?"
Started by Roman Payne in Music on Tuesday. 0 Replies 1 Love
The French Resistance has sent you a message...: "Did yourMP3s arrive safely ?"I wrote earlier to say that: “I buried the corpse of my poor dead laptop, as well as the German keyboard who killed it. And I bought a beautiful new French Resistance laptop with a French keyboard!! :-) " ... the only problem is the French keyboard is “laid-out” as oddly as the French people are “laid-back”... so I kept hitting “Send” (“Envoyez”) by accident. Excusez-Moi !!a) I need to wait for Lee Crase to…Continue
DISCUSSION: The Furious Poet and A Damned German Keyboard...
Started by Roman Payne in Music. Last reply by Glenda Stryker on Tuesday. 7 Replies 4 Loves
Scheiße !! It's the novelist's nightmare: the keyboard on my laptop broke almost 24 hours ago... it is a keyboard in English, as the novel I am writing is in English... And since I live in Paris, I cannot find a keyboard English very easily. So, in despair, I first bought an external keyboard French (a language I know fluently); but since French keyboards have the letters all in the wrong order. But this proved clumsy to write on, so I then bought a keyboard in German (a language I do not…Continue

Aloha Roman, I was prepared to dislike today's quote (some feminist knee jerk I guess) but instead I loved it and just forwarded it to two other people, one man and one woman, it's an equal opportunity quote. Mahalo!Continue

In my inbox (my reply follows)-Hello, CulturalBook members. In the past week we've acquired about a dozen new members whose profiles promote some kind of wellness product: colon cleanse, weight loss, wrinkle cream, and other similar products that have nothing to do with the theme of CulturalBook. Also, most of their profile photos vs. profile descriptions clearly show that somehow they have done an excellent job of changing genders.Should these "members" be deleted?

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. I'm a little more than half way through at the moment, but I'm really getting a kick out of this author. He's managed to write in the perfect teenage, irreverent attitude. I mean, it must be pretty hard being the son of a God, but one of the big 3? That makes it even harder. As the son of Poseidon, with all the other Gods jealous of his very existence, and therefore actively hunting him, he needs to find a godly artifact before Zeus and Poseidon tear the…Continue

The Space Tour

At night, I like to visit the stars.
Through my telescope, I can see Jupiter, and Venus, and Mars.
I can even see galaxies lightyears away.
And I can do all of this every single day!
When the Sun goes down and the Moon rises,
I look to the night sky and find many surprises!
The shooting stars that I see fly by,
can even move faster than the blink of an eye.
But wait, that's no shooting star that I see,
and it seems…

Three poems on the subject of Day and Night
Posted on March 6, 2012 at 9:30am 1 Comment 1 Love
(Three poems on the subject of Day and Night, the scribbler being somewhat biased in favor of the latter)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Day and Night #1
"Promise of a new day"…? What's that mean, anyway?
I guess… that there'll be news, always lots of it…?
And hmmm… oh yeah: Weather: Mild or harsh, I (almost) always love it;
And that at some point I'll take some time…

Posted on March 3, 2012 at 1:34am 9 Comments 2 Loves
I have seen a number of websites devoted to writing that have these games going into thousands of posts. I think it's fun AND helpful to my writing skills; in fact, I have a hard time thinking of anything to write about, poetically speaking, if I am not challenged in some way. The poems I have had published so far, and really all of my decent poems, are responses on an internet discussion board to a challenge. If I try to just sit down and write a poem I can never think of a darned…

Mr Bukowski was a prolific writer & a legendary drinker, lots of creative people can be quite hedonistic , he actually made quite a career from it. That said I love his work & was actually moved to write to him before he died. The strength of his writing will endure & he'll be with us for a long long time.
What beautiful photos, Kristi. Tell me where they were taken. The bike one so reminds me of a trip I took out west one time on an old BMW 800. I had a pic just like that -- of the bike beside the highway. Do you live in that palace? If you do I want to be your gardener.

Ain't no haps, girl friend. Other than I am so pleased you friended me. I will look forward to us getting to know one another.
