I think I see your point, Duke. But usually, when someone gives his life to save others' lives, it is considered good and heroic (though tragic, at the same time). But yeah, the Bible says if you don't have faith, you aren't going to understand these things, and of course they will seem foolish to you: 14The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. (I Corinthians 2:14, NIV)quote> Anyway, I apologize for the off-topicness of this post.

For breakfast had a piece of molasses pecan pie...Mmmm

I'd love something like this, though currently, there are several OT threads for writers, photography, and music, and they aren't incredibly active. Though it would be cool to have a place to have a thread for just your writings, or something. Glenn: put it in a plaza or an avenue roundabout maybe? Btw, read more carefully next time, rofl

Hmm, well I meant the text for the announcement itself... I didn't see the medal's color, I usually don't notice it. And Craig has two pink ones! Too tall or not, the December one was cute, with the hat.

Sorry if this has already been said, don't usually follow threads like these. The Bible makes no effort to prove God's existence. "In the beginning God..." (Gen 1:1) "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God..." (John 1:1). It states that there is one, obviously, but I find no long formal argumentation of His existence. Simply a matter of faith.

Hey! It's pink! Swat, you are really helpful! And Craig, as well, incredibly helpful and a great mod. Congrats guys.

Amen on getting 88 keys and semi weighted. Lol. There are few things I hate worse than a cheap keyboard. Good luck with that Addie. Im sorry to hear about your teacher. That can really make a huge difference. At least you're trying your best to learn If you have questions feel free to ask though I can't promise I'll be much help. Vandy: Yeah, I probably won't quit entirely, I plan to play for church or something, but I'm going to quit taking my playing seriously. I tend to be a perfectionist so I kill myself if I mess up even slightly. I thought the point of music was to relax, like you said...Unlike you, I could never make a joke or apologize (although I did, once, when I screwed up the first measure of a piece...Oh, that performance, it pains me to think about it) But yeah... Thanks for the music suggestions, will look into it. I found some vids on my computer of yours truly playing, but they are over a year old, and the sound quality is not great. For some reason my sustaining pedal has a "click" that's really loud on recordings.

Hawky!  I like this.  Foggy schmoggy.  The pics of the boat with the bridge are my faves.

Mr Hawky!  I like the bridge & the expensive little suburbs.  But what is that weird pointy building in the 3rd pic?

Dirk! :O Good job beebs! Head-Smashed-in-Buffalo-Jump made me laugh!! The last pic is pretty and the fort/river looks nice.

I've played for 7 years, right now I am working on the music for my recital later this month: Great Gate of Kiev (Mussorgsky, from Pictures at an Exhibition) Something by Mozart, Presto movement. Papillons ("Butterflies," appropriate for me , final section, by Schumann. Have an Alesis QS8 keyboard. Good instrument. I plan to quit after a final performance (well, a playing evaluation) in June. Don't think I'll have the time to practice at university.

Right now Im enjoying a slice of homemade pizza. My mom makes it amazingly good!

I just wrapped up the Victorian Age in Brit Lit. My favorites were the selections by Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest and "The Nightingale and the Rose."

And here is a parting picture. I will probably re-start this journal after I graduate. Thanks for your fabulous comments. Tomasneto: Haha, thanks my friend. Leech10: You (they) crack me up. Haljackey: No can do. At least, not without destroying my pretty park and office complex. Simbourgeois: Haha, don't be greedy! PhilsCafe: You saw that? Haha, I thought it was the perfect description. TwelveToneMusic: Thank you! So do you seriously enjoy twelve tone music? blue sinjid: Sorry to disappoint. Will be back this summer. penguin007: Haha, glad you like. suplado!: Hmm, I can't speak for the Sims, but I can imagine the sight is nice, although the jam is not.

Ooh, I like this mosaic!!  very peaceful.

Firefox... Need I say more

Awww! Too cute. I like the tiny pencil. Glad I didn't have to vote with that, it would take twenty minutes to fill in a circle!

I like the little fishing village!  Very cute!

Beebsies!   I like all the open green space and the trees. 

Kinda stands out, but just username.. 5/10.

Hmm...nerd humor. My mom made rhubarb pie yesterday, which is just about the most hideous pie known to mankind.

Hmm, nicely done my fabulous amigo. You know how I love Dutch architecture. I like the little brown apartments with the greenery and pond around them. The colors are pretty but not over-stated. Keep it up

DTP's new one made me laugh Nicely done!

I like the new house smell. (Like how my house smells atm lol) And for some reason, I loved how my basement smelled in my old house. You'd think a basement would be dank and smelly but it had this aroma that was really nice.

Wow! Super cool secret messages! Although, I must admit, I'd be sad to see 5.0 go. Unless, of course, 6.0 is indeed a holographic walk-through forum.
