Edie Brickell sings Far Away with Charlie Sexton accompanying on guitar and vocals.
The vocal and instrumental skill on display in what seems a simple acoustic song is enchantingly wistful and hopeful.
I keep dreaming of home sweet home
Wondering
Will I ever find it
Will it be by a peaceful stream
Where the water sings
And the sunlight plays upon it
The movie The Great Race features what is billed as the largest pie fight ever filmed.
It seems likely the record will stand.
Here’s the three and half minute scene, complete with pie counter and anecdotal commentary.
And yes, Jack Lemmon is two separate people.
His performance in the entire movie is a tour de force.
Far Side Bank Of Jordan by The Petersens.
Our pastoral care group met this afternoon for its first regular meeting in nearly a year.
We’ve experienced some separations in that time, but we live in expectation of reunion.
They’re not gone. They’re awaiting us.
And I’ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
I’ll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with the shout
And come running through the shallow waters, reaching for your hand
US comic books are generally divided into distinct ages.
The Golden Age (1938-1950) was the medium’s beginning until its near demise due to censorship and sales issues; the Silver Age (1956-1970) marked a return and renewal, including the rise of Marvel Comics and the Batman TV show craze; the Bronze Age (1970-1985) is a less distinct transition, but generally represents a transition of where silver age properties were written and drawn by newer, younger creators who had grown up as fans of gold and silver age comics, it also marked a move towards entertaining an ageing group of readers rather than remaking focussed on children and adolescents; and then what is called the Modern Age (1985-Present) which is a depressing mess of dark self-indulgence and fan service (with some exceptions). ahem.
That’s a longish introduction to a couple of images, a cover and internal panel from DC’s The Flash .
The less context you have the better, but this was not an imaginary story, not a dream, not a hoax.
Nor was it a cover image that misrepresents a scene from the story inside.
It simply happens. (Is resolved) And is never mentioned again.
This is DC’s Silver Age.
How does being turned into a puppet feel?
