Wow, quite the find, thank you. And I thought Shades Of Gray was what took them out of the bubble gum genre.

I watched these several times and found them inspiring. The images are helping me to understand a little of the role of beauty

Our family does the "Names of Jesus" advent and today the name of Jesus was The Word. Reading was John 1-14.

In Thy Name, Jesus Christ, deliver us all from evil.

I believe in Thee whatever happens.

Thank You for life.

Teach - but forgive not - those who seek to destroy Your gift.

Amen.

Anyone here ever run into Nathan Blumberg, or Madelaine DeFrees?

No, I haven't. However the Bendall link you posted has relit a fire from 15 years ago, then went dim 3 years later until now. Thanks.

BTW, do you suppose that Michigan FEMA caravan might be repurposed under new "leadership" in January?

Fifty years ago I spent a few days in Uppsala once and it didn't sound at all like that.

Riu Riu, I can't get that sound out of my ear. It makes me think of this carnal collection. The 80s, all you had to do is flaunt your youthful beauty and show up half naked. https://www.songfacts.com/facts/duran-duran/rio Is it blasphemous when one in a moment of respite repurposes an ecclesiastical song toward memories of happier times?

And pity the souls in this depraved footage. They didn't have cellphones !

Has anyone seen my mushrooms?
