Is it simply paraphrasing the Gary Numan song 'Are Friends Electric'? Or is it from Philip K ***** book 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' (on which the Numan song is based..and I haven't read :D ). Or something else...

As a newcomer to his work, with only a little experience in Philip Glass too, do you have any suggestions about which works I should try listening to first?

I remember growing up hearing stories of Joseph Stalin and how he ran his empire.

It was said that if he didnt like you, he could just simply point you out, and a KGB would put a bullet in your head before you knew what happened.

He killed many generals for their actions during World War II and the near loss.

It was reported that in all he ordered the deaths of some 20 mil people in Russia.

Yet Hitler besides the war deaths orders 6 mil deaths.


In a way id say Stalin was.

No wonder why so many people wanted to take the invasion of Europe to Moscow instead of stopping in Germany.

yesterday i thought of this poem:.
knocking banging memories
i wish it never was
my ma is gone
and so am i
and if it is im sure to die
i close my eyes and i see death
i open and its here
my tears they've fallen
my beatings they've stung
my screams they've echoed
my life?
its gone
(its based on the feelings of a girl called duzzana who's life was replayed by me in a play called i never saw another buterfly, all about the holocoust, Duzzana went to terrazin when she was 4 she died when she was 11.)
what do you think of my poem?

I was watching a "Amazing Race" a few weeks ago, and one of their stops was Auschwitz. They didnt have a chance to really go through it all though its obviously open to the public by the looks of it.

Instead they were to light a candel at a candel stand and say a prayer for the dead.

My question, is that after 61 years, shouldnt a place so evil.... hell it looks evil light up at night, and whats left looks like Hiroshima after the atom bomb, be torn down?

Isnt it more of a reminder of a time of pure evil then a memorial to the dead?

They are not fictitious yet are the most poignant.Do you agree?But why did thier intense deep love always had a tragic end? And if you believe in Karmic association do you think they could have met or united later?(I know the question might sound wierd but I wonder)Why are there no true love legends in other parts of the world or am I wrong?

I am a professional actor. I go on this part of answers to share my knowledge and experience with others who care to learn. I also want to learn from others. It's very rare that anyone posts a worthwhile question on here. It's always "How do I get on the Disney Channel?" "How do I become an actor?" "How do I get an agent?" What really gets me is the people who answer obviously don't have any idea what they are talking about. Why answer a question if you don't know? You're not helping anyone. There are a few people who give truly great answers. I really enjoyed reading them. That's why I kept coming back. But usually it's the same thing. Questions from people who aren't interested in acting, they are interested in getting rich and famous. Frustrating that so few have respect for what I do. Well, you've driven me off at least for now. One final word, if you don't know the answer to your question you obviously haven't studied the craft and are not ready to do it for money

I already know what it means but lets see if ya'll get it. In the world the abscence of evidence is not the evidence of abscence because in the world there are data types that are know knowns, known unknowns, and unknown unknowns.
