She will never leave you


The last pane is great!

--Cheski

The Green Fields of France

Well, how do you do, Private William McBride,
Do you mind if I sit down here by your graveside?
And rest for awhile in the warm summer sun,
I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done.
And I see by your gravestone you were only 19
When you joined the glorious fallen in 1916,
Well, I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean
Or, Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene?

Did they Beat the drum slowly, did the play the pipes lowly?
Did the rifles fir o'er you as they lowered you down?
Did the bugles sound The Last Post in chorus?
Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest?

And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind
In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined?
And, though you died back in 1916,
To that loyal heart are you forever 19?
Or are you a stranger without even a name,
Forever enshrined behind some glass pane,
In an old photograph, torn and tattered and stained,
And fading to yellow in a brown leather frame?

The sun's shining down on these green fields of France;
The warm wind blows gently, and the red poppies dance.
The trenches have vanished long under the plow;
No gas and no barbed wire, no guns firing now.
But here in this graveyard that's still No Man's Land
The countless white crosses in mute witness stand
To man's blind indifference to his fellow man.
And a whole generation who were butchered and damned.

And I can't help but wonder, no Willie McBride,
Do all those who lie here know why they died?
Did you really believe them when they told you "The Cause?"
Did you really believe that this war would end wars?
Well the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame
The killing, the dying, it was all done in vain,
For Willie McBride, it all happened again,
And again, and again, and again, and again.



Amazing lyrics... especially the last verse.

Is that liquid meat?


I may be new to the whole baby food thing, as I do not have a baby, but wow. Liquefied meat... Sounds so appealing.
I can see it now:
Stranger: Why are you feeding you baby liquid meat?
Parent: Because my baby can't digest it otherwise.
Stranger: Riiiiiight...

Would you eat liquefied meat? Think bratwurst through a straw. Yum.

Amazing Machinima - Splintered Edge



I am really taken back by how well this is done. Considering how amazing games are looking now days... I wouldn't be surprised to see the level of this type of film making keep on rising. I understand the scripting and what not was done by the game studio, but it is way this is "filmed". Great.

Less than 2 minutes


I walk up to the corner of 20th and Market, just in time to see this guy doing circles on one wheel of this tractor in the parade. He rolled it. He got up and was all right, but OMFG srsly!

Reminds me of the seen from Gone in 60 seconds:

"Are you okay?"
"Yes"
"Are you sure, because you just went through a wall"

Wow.
