It has been a while since we had a videos thread so I thought I would start a new one. Here is a video from 1956 of a 96 year old man who witnessed President Abraham Lincoln being shot by John Wilkes Booth on Aug 14th 1865.

Here's a true classicBlah

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Translation by Keke
The Invitation To Voyage
My child, my sister
Dream of the beauty of traveling there and living together!
To love at leisure
To love and to die
In the country that resembles you!
The soaked suns
Of those misty skies
Have for my spirit the charms so mysterious
of your treacherous eyes
Radiating through their tears.
There, nothing is but order and beauty,
Luxury, calm and joy.
Brilliant furniture
Polished by the years
Would decorate our room ;
The most rare flowers
Would mix their fragrances
On waves that smell of amber
The rich ceilings
The deep mirrors
The Oriental splendor
There, everything would speak
To the soul in secret
Its soft native tongue.
There, nothing is but order and beauty,
Luxury, calm and joy.
See on these channels
Dream those vessels
That are in a vagabond mood ;
It is in order to satisfy your every desire
That they come from the ends of the Earth.
The setting suns
Cloth the fields
The channels, the whole city
in hyacinth and gold.
The world goes asleep
In a warm light.
There, nothing is but order and beauty,
Luxury, calm and joy.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
"Hating America is something best left to Mobius. He is an expert Yank hater.
He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
