The pink and lovely..."Hiller Lake" (Western Australia)
Its startling color remains a mystery, and while scientists have proven
it's not due to the presence of algae, unlike the other salt lakes down
Under, they still can't explain why it's pink.

The gap between Europe and the United States is widening - by one inch a year. This photograph shows the vast gap between the two tectonic plates, as seen by a British Scuba diver. Alex Mustard, 36, dived 80 feet into the crevice between North America and Eurasia to reveal the stunning landscape. The area - near Iceland - is riddled with faults, valleys, volcanoes and hot springs, caused by the plates pulling apart at about 1 inch Per year.

To you, my dear friend



"I believe there is something in these old Fairy-tales that does what singing does to words.
They have transformational capabilities, in the way melody can transform mood.
They can't transform your actual situation, but they can transform your experience of it.
We don't create a fantasy world to escape reality, we create it to be able to stay.
I believe we have always done this, used images to stand and understand what otherwise would be intolerable.”
― Lynda Barry-


"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion.
I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up afterwards."
-Kurt Vonnegut-


"God put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of things.
Right now, I am so far behind I will never die."

“Christmas Eve was a night of song that wrapped itself about you like a shawl.
But it warmed more than your body. It warmed your heart...filled it, too,
with a melody that would last forever.”
