Atral Walks

If you ever have the opportunity to take a walk out in the desert, mountains, woods, or on the beach, download Van Morrisons Astral Weeks onto your MP3 player and see things in a more mystical light.Happiness courses through your veins. The rest of the world, mans world, disappears. It is moments like this that would convert Darwin to creationism. All the senses come to life. The concept of evolution becomes not an argument of nature but a reality of mans buildings, cars, electrical lines and smog. This, our, evolutions pinnacle, creation! The thoughts, patterns, concepts are the missing link. Anyway, here are some more pictures of my backyard. (Click on a picture to see it and the other photos larger and in a slide format)

Just a few more; An Early Autumn Snow/Head In The Clouds

I only have titles for two/three of these. Linear continuity 1 & 2, and Life On Mars. If you click on the photos they will enlarge for your viewing pleasure.








Volkswagen: Was Ist Los?

I don't know if you have seen one of the new commercials from Volkswagen but it is highly disturbing. So much so that I don't even know what model the ad is for. It shows two guys going on a road trip. Instead of listening to music they pop in a language cd. I'm fine with that. after a thirteen hour drive they pull into a gas station, hop out of the car and begin to speak fluent...spanish? Ah that's right, the language of the great engineering country of Spain and the third world engineering juggernauts of the western hemisphere.

Well Volkswagen, in answer to the Was ist los question I say das ist schisse. Fire your ad agency and the people that approve such a campaign. Look to your roots. German is the language of top notch engineering. In fact, were it not for German engineering the allies would never have defeated Germany in WWII. Hows that for irony.

Prost!
