I would like to start a company that makes and sells calendars. Baby, pet, kid, landsapes, portraits these kind of calendars but can not come up with a great name that I like any ideas.
Any thing might work.

Is there a website that sells posters of work by Joseph Cornell? I'm looking for "Hotel Eden," but would be glad to find anything. Thanks

I just know the name and around the time of death. (1919) There might not be a marker or headstone, but I'm sure someone has got to know who all is buried in their cemeteries.

My family (which was Jewish) came from Latvia around 1886.
Another family with the same (uncommon) surname (which was Lutheran) came from Sweden about 1884.
I think that there were Jewish conversions to Christianity in Germany in late 1700s and that Sweden was a power on the continent around then.
Is there a chance that these two families are related?
Our surname is also a place name in Switzerland and Germany, so it is possible that the families were independantly named after the same place.
Any info on the Jewish to Lutheran angle?

Why do we live and then die? Why do some die young and others at older ages? Why are people afraid of dying? Why are people afraid of living? Is there life after death? Is there a life after the life after death? Would we remember our previous lives? Or do we just rest ourselves on our deathbeds like in eternal slumber? Do we dream in that eternal slumber? Or is everything pitch-black?

*You don't need to answer every one. I'd just like to know your viewpoint on this kind of subject. It's something that gets me thinking a lot.

I am currently writing a historical fiction novel, and have come up with a couple of questions:
1) Can the book be about a real time period with a made up monarch?
2) Can the book be about a real monarch, just with different events in his/her life? (Some major some minor.) It's almost as if I'm giving them a new life!

Thanks guyz.

I was reading on Wikipedia which stated that the full moon had little or no effect on humans...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_moon#Effects_of_Full_Moon
So in your opinion or personal experience, state whether you believe in this or not. Why or why not?
Which by the way the next full moon this month should be the 29th, make an observation whether it effects anyone in any way^_^...just for the hell of it.

Suicide (as seen from the other side)





Way down under
feel the thunder
reeking havoc
from below
~
Flames rise higher
blue flamed fires
seeking mattock
tortured souls
~
Suicidal
oh so vital
blood seeps through
on into hell
~
Prayers have
been granted
Satan chanted
He’ll be watching you as well...

{He was a great man that I cared for at a nearby nursing facility, he will be sorely missed}
(Love you Bobby)

I’m Still It........






Bobby was a kid at heart
since the tender age of three
Stricken by Scarlet fever
He remained that child indeed

Bobby was fifty-six years old
when he suffered a heart attack
while roaming through the hallways
as the police or playing tag

I knew Bobby just two years
in a walker racing askew
Screaming out a siren
warning all he’s coming through

I’d play tag with Bobby
if it didn’t hurt my job
He liked to sneak up on me
so I’d say “I see you Bob”

Just to see him smile and laugh
it truly made my days
He’ll never know I loved him
and all his silly ways

He’d meet me at the time clock
to be sure he tagged me last
Yesterday, he did and I’m still it
I’ll never get him back..........

I wrote this poem and am just wondering what other people think of it.Im a beginner,so its gonna be very rookie and rough.
"A Womans Nightmare"

You were heartless when you it
You werent thinking of her,
You were thinking of the sick revolting pleasure
And now you've changed her bright like sunshine world,
Into pain and heartache nobody can measure
Each night,while lying in bed
That dreadful moment plays over and over in her torn head,
Haunting her
You reminisce that sick moment,
Only you swim in the nightmare of it all
And every night,she cries,putting her hands to her face;shell fall
She thinks and thinks,knowing she wont recover!
Why couldnt you let her have her pride and dignity?
But that night,you did it with your thoughtless mind and stability
You're a selfish bastard!


Theres more to the poem,but i cant fit it all here.what do you guys think of my poem so far?
