These fantastic images come from the lens of Nirrimi Hakanson. This young photo-taking genius is moving up in the world, and fast! I'd like her to take my picture so I come out looking like a long haired, long legged hipster. Totally.

Sing-along-Sunday
Big Bird in a Small Cage - Broken Bells

There was a house halfway round the world,
and I was invited in for a small taste of gin.
There was a hall­way thou­sand birds long,
but the biggest one of all was in a-
cage too small.

I asked the care­taker cause he owes the maker.
Looked at me and laughed,
took another sip from his glass and said:
“Open up your ears and heart.
“You put a big bird in a small cage it’ll sing you a song.”

That we all love to sing along,
to the sound of the bird that longs (mourns).

Well we rolled into town, into sweet New Orleans,
to the Apple Bell bar; it was a hole in the wall.
The ceil­ings weren’t tall, the floors were the ground,
but the sounds you were mak­ing just warm your hearts.

Well it was quar­ter to twelve when the boys walked in.
They put their black suits on and the songs would begin.
You open up your ears and hearts;
you put a big bird in a small cage it’ll sing you a song.

That we all love to sing along,
to the sound of the bird that longs (mourns).

The little girl wanted to drive,

the little boy wanted to steer too.

So off they went to the fun fair,

and there they could drive as two.

Learn something new everyday is one of my go-to sites each morning. It ups your smartness level, gives you things to say when you have nothing to say and the doodles of the facts are too hilariously cute!

Wishlist for Christmas 2010 

No. 2

Any or all of the above flicks on DVD. 

Some I have on VHS, but I need them on disk, you know, moving with the times and all that jazz. Most of these are movies we watched over and over as kids. There are too many for me to put them all up, but these are my favourites, I think..
