Spring Time.

Hello everyone! So it's that time of year again, where the the season changes. . . by choice apparently. Anyway today is the day of Spring (Autumn on the southern half of the world) I am glad it's Spring. It starts to warm up, the snow melts & peoples attitudes change. Winter is fun & all but I want the warm weather. I love when the Tulips start to bloom, the birds & squirrels appear & when everything becomes a new. So tell me what are your goals for Spring?

The Sleeper.

So I found this poem online (can't remember which sight) I thought I share with you. 

The Sleeper.

At midnight, in the month of June,
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapor, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim,
And, softly dripping, drop by drop,
Upon the quiet mountain top,
Steals drowsily and musically
Into the universal valley.
The rosemary nods upon the grave;
The lily lolls upon the wave;
Wrapping the fog about its breast,
The ruin molders into rest;
Looking like Lethe, see! the lake
A conscious slumber seems to take,
And would not, for the world, awake.
All Beauty sleeps!- and lo! where lies
Irene, with her Destinies!

O, lady bright! can it be right-
This window open to the night?
The wanton airs, from the tree-top,
Laughingly through the lattice drop-
The bodiless airs, a wizard rout,
Flit through thy chamber in and out,
And wave the curtain canopy
So fitfully- so fearfully-
Above the closed and fringed lid
'Neath which thy slumb'ring soul lies hid,
That, o'er the floor and down the wall,
Like ghosts the shadows rise and fall!
Oh, lady dear, hast thou no fear?
Why and what art thou dreaming here?
Sure thou art come O'er far-off seas,
A wonder to these garden trees!
Strange is thy pallor! strange thy dress,
Strange, above all, thy length of tress,
And this all solemn silentness!

The lady sleeps! Oh, may her sleep,
Which is enduring, so be deep!
Heaven have her in its sacred keep!
This chamber changed for one more holy,
This bed for one more melancholy,
I pray to God that she may lie
For ever with unopened eye,
While the pale sheeted ghosts go by!

My love, she sleeps! Oh, may her sleep
As it is lasting, so be deep!
Soft may the worms about her creep!
Far in the forest, dim and old,
For her may some tall vault unfold-
Some vault that oft has flung its black
And winged panels fluttering back,
Triumphant, o'er the crested palls,
Of her grand family funerals-
Some sepulchre, remote, alone,
Against whose portal she hath thrown,
In childhood, many an idle stone-
Some tomb from out whose sounding door
She ne'er shall force an echo more,
Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
It was the dead who groaned within.

- Edgar Allan Poe. (Published 1831)

The highly anticipated weeklong event is reportedly expected to draw as many as 250 people to the capital region for a first glimpse at new collections from the top names in Iowa fashion, including Ames resident Jerry Paquette, Iowa City’s Marjorie Lanford, and veteran crochet designer Shelly Farnsworth of Jasper County.

Full Story.

10 Lazy Pokemon Names.

- With 650 little monsters in the ever growing ranks of Pokemon, it would only stand to reason that a few of their names would be lacking in the originality department. It doesn’t seem to be too difficult to name the little guys. But sometimes, you gotta get lazy when it comes to doing just that.

10. Ekans.
Ekans sounds mysterious, like the name of a rare reptile from the jungles of Borneo where fish slip across the mud. Is it really though? After hours of intense thought, research, and rearranging the letters according to the Fibonacci sequence, we decided to heroically give up on finding the mystery behind the name and possibly deem it not so lazy after all.

Wait. What did you say? Spell it backwards? S-N-A-K-E. Dammit! Really? You just flipped the spelling? That’s so lazy that there’s probably a keyboard shortcut for that. We would have thought of this earlier if we knew they were taking naming advice from Missy Elliot’s “Work It”.

09. Klinklang.

601Klinklang.pngIt seems like Pokemon naming conventions have run out of concrete nouns to smash together and are now relying on the onomonopia you’d get from actually smashing two of these Pokemon together. Pokemon names should be something you don’t hear on a daily basis. Klinkklang sounds like keys jangling around in your pocket or the crashing of subway cars together. To us, it is the sound of a lazy Pokemon naming department.

08. Vanillite.
582Vanillite.pngIf they are going to make a Pokemon out of a scoop of ice cream plopped on a cone, could they have made it a more interesting flavor? Why not a dairy powered Chocolate-Chip-Cookie-Doughbert or rock type named Rockyroady. Well, our names are no better than the one given to it by the Poke-Professors, but we wish this name wasn’t so, wasn’t so — vanilla.
07. Spoink.

325Spoink.pngWhat sound do you get when you cross a pig and a spring? We’re not completely sure, but we have a hunch that it might be squealing. It certainly wouldn’t be this dastardly derived onomonopia mash up used as a name for this Pokemon. Although we appreciate the effort and restraint exhibited by not naming it “Spig,” some say that Spoink is a cop out, and that the Pokemon doesn’t even enjoy rolling in slop.

06. Horsea.

116Horsea.pngThere are only so many ways you can mash up Sea and Horse, and one is already taken. Although it could be referring to the infantile form of horse that so many kids shout at the petting zoo, but somehow we doubt that. With their track record in the past, we’re willing to bet they they just cropped and chopped Seahorse to their own exhausted devices. Could this Pokemon’s name be a somewhat wet play on Equine? Aquine maybe? No? Just trying to help out.

05. Seel.
086Seel.pngReally? This name is so lazy that it could have been made by a hurried typing accident. Someone was typing up the narration for a nature program when they saw the genius that auto-correct missed. There, underlined in squiggly red, was the name for a Pokemon that looks like a seal. This is the only Pokemon with a name that sounds exactly the same as its real life counterpart.

04.Krabby.

098Krabby.png  Krabby is a unique case in the realm of Pokemon names. It not only describes the origins and look of the Pokemon it is ascribed to, but it might accurately describe the feelings of the people who named the poor little guy. This one has to have been a cruel joke that made it past the copy editors. The writers were having a rough day. They probably had a wild night out and were a little perturbed that they were stuck at work in the early morning hours. The drawing of a crab came across their desk. They attached their salty feelings to the ocean critter and swapped out a letter. Job done and cash the check.
03. Gurdurr.
533Gurdurr.pngThis Pokemon is particularly sad. During the naming process, the monster under the giant beam wasn’t even taken into account. The namers were too busy picking out letters from a Scrabble bag to try and spell girder with twice as many r’s to nab that triple word score. Look at him. He’s just sitting there with a name taken from the thing he is holding. He looks depressed. Let’s call him Pokemuscles. (Hey, we never said we were good at this naming thing either.)

02. Lampent.
608Lampent.pngThis thing doesn’t even have a face. What does it evolve in to, a chandelier? Regardless of how desperate the Pokemon designers are getting for new monsters, Lampent is sinking to an all new low when it comes to nomenclature. We’ll give you a choice of naming stories for this one. Either this Pokemon was named after a desk accessory with a few letters slapped on the end, or it was named using the combination of useful desk accouterments and the word sentient. You already know which one we’ve chosen.

01. Ducklett.
580Ducklett.pngHere we have come to the laziest name of all. Why is it the laziest? Because it does not adhere to the nonsensical conventions of every other Pokemon. It doesn’t flip flop letters, smash together sounds, or describe what sort of powers whirl about inside this little guy. Instead, someone decided to apply the logic of “piglet” to a duck and add an extra t just for good measure. It is logical, boring, and most of all, lazy. Three attributes that none of us want from the world of Pokemon.

The Insanity Of Daylight Saving Time.

It's that time of year again were the U.S (and other countries) partake in the ritual of daylight saving time (turning your clock forward against their will by an hour) But is this really as beneficial as we keep hearing?





Keep Standard Time!

Harlem Reacts To 'Harlem Shake' Videos.

If you don't know what the 'Harlem Shake' fad is you really need to to get informed. So what happens when you show people from Harlem this fad? Well this -



Couldn't help but wonder how so many minority people were questioned, but that's just me...

Winning Comment:
The Harlem Shake is just another fad that all kinds of people find fun. It's NOT making fun of the original Harlem Shake. It's called a coincidence! And just because it has the word Harlem in it, it has NOTHING to do with 'disrespecting' people in Harlem. Good grief.

Haha yes exactly! It's just another silly fad that will fad out like 'Gangnam Style, or 'Teach me how to Dougie' We can only hope.
