What do you think of the Beast in Disney’s 'Beauty and the Beast' turning back into the Prince at the end of the movie? Wasn’t the whole moral of the show about discovering the inner beauty of a person? So when Belle see past the hideousness of the Beast and love him for who he is, she gets rewarded with physical beauty? Frankly I think it is so not right. For example, would you like your pet dog to suddenly turn into a Fabio like stranger? Would you like your dad to turn into Tom Cruise? At least, Shrek got the whole moral thing correct.

But what if the Beast didn’t turn back into the prince? Would it be immoral for Belle to actually marry a Beast and consummate their marriage? Fairy Tales are so screwed up.

MANKIND
In its vain battle
To understand
The unknown
While searching
For a truth
Untold.

Mankind,
Where it takes an extinction
Of your own kind
To create
An inspiration
In a world
Insane and blind.

Mankind,
In its ignorant entity
Blind,
Unaware of sweet gravity
..Anchoring us,
A better life
To lead.
A better person,
To be...



The struggles of man
They say
Begin at birth.
Holding us hostage,
Leading us all
To our inevitable death


Mankind,
Where everything
And anything
Comes to place
For a reason
In the nick of time
Be it any season.
Winter summer
Spring and fall
We humans
Shall walk tall
Awaiting the day
Where everything shall cease to exist
And our lives will be gone
Like a shadow,
Lost in the dawning mist.

Roads meet
Voyages merge
To destinations unknown
While we search
Deep within our souls
And everything we own
To satisfy our deepest cravi

I mean, It's been what, 140 years? Time to move on? I suppose everybody needs a hobby. Once I saw some reinactors practicing in a park and I asked them if I could take a picture. They said sure and went around taking off their wristwatches and getting rid of Pepsi cans. Well the only reason I wanted the picture was for the acronistic elements, it wasn't funny without it. But I didn't want to hurt their feelings (they were so serious) so I took pictures anyway.
Help me understand what the deal is.
And where were all you civil war buffs when I asked about the film Confederat States of America?

In Sweeney Todd, there is a song about cannibalism. I can appreciate all of the jokes, but the grocer joke perplexes me some:

TODD:
Is that squire,
On the fire?
LOVETT:
Mercy no, sir, look closer,
You'll notice it's grocer!
TODD:
Looks thicker,
More like vicar!
LOVETT:
No, it has to be grocer --
It's green!

I’m aware of a “green grocer” in 21st-century lingo, but it obviously isn’t the same for Victorian times. So what is the joke in the grocer being green?

I am doing fine art (visual arts) in September. I know that I will have a lot of presentations and I shall be grilled like a tomato in front of other people.

Does anyone know any good books to read to prepare me or at least for me to come up with good enough reasons why I have created the work I have. My verbal intelligence is so-so but I want to be ready when I get wrongly criticised.

Thank you all in advance.

Somoene 5 minutes ago asked how many beers for her 14 year old 50kg, (roughly 95 lbs) is ok. And another person said that the wilderness ( outdoors, forests etc) is another dimention and was wondering how many of us "knew" that. From completely wacked out theorys to questions that people SHOULD be able to answer themselves, is logic being replaced with complete stupidity?
