I picked up a piece of china, it's like a little serving tray, about a foot long and 8 inches wide with "handles". It's white, probably had gold trim, but worn now. The mark on the bottom is green with "Prussia" at the top, then a 5 pointed crown, then the letter B in kind of a horseshoe type thing under that. I don't think it's RS Prussia, but it might be. Anyone know? Thanks in advance!

I know "it's never too late to start acting" and everything, but if you want to be the next Audrey Hepburn or something, when do you think someone should start acting and when is it too late to become that famous? I'm think somewhere in the late twenties is too late, but I'd like to know what you think. No philisophical answers please, just a simple figure or two will do.

I was looking on the web and found a site that shows some evidence, like that navajos look about the same and language wise too, here look for yourself.

www.lapahie.com/Timeline.cfm

Are we Navajos actually from Filipinos? Do you think we are Filipino, at least part?

The fragile voice of my mother earth,
Flows in my ears since my birth.
The blood streaming in my veins,
Is what i gained from your pain.

Your sight is my only eye,
To poke it,i'll never try.
your sense is my only brain,
I received it from your knowledge's rain.

My mother you're my only pleasure
Above all a precious treasure.
Without your love life's not meant,
Your my God ,you have no end.

My love for you is simple and plain,
But its something no one can explain.
This world is yours and so am I.
Leave me never or I will die.

I saw a question about his short stories and thought I'd delve a bit deeper.

Also, I've gotten an email or two before about this - I'm Irish and we spell 'favourite' like this, with a 'u' - so it's not a misspelling, before anyone comments!

AN ODE TO PSEUDO-INTELLECTUALS


Let us praise these gregarious kith and kin whose
onus appears to be of a tutelage nature,
a voluminous quest
to irradiate our
vernacular stature,
to luxuriantly
masticate the great lack of trivialities
within our impalpable, languid street jargon.

Let us praise these magnanimous maestros while
they sink, with vehement raillery, their verbal
talons into the dense
necrosis of our minds:
lambasting turpitude
and mental lethargy
with incantations of irrevocable disdain
as we praise their latitudinarian souls.

Consider them not fey. Attempt not to efface
commiserated autointoxication.
They are not ignoble.
Titillated? Yes.
Sometimes pixilated.
But blatant incursions
can not adulterate our frugal imbroglio
as panegyrically we praise their pious oligarchy!

Whattahell, whattahell, whattahell? They mean well
and we should not snub these snobs although they mean well.


(It's satire, people! Read it as such!)

Imagine yourself in solitude in a cave from society or just in a place with no one there, just thinking. What comes to mind? Fears, ideas, what you left behind, what you miss, what you don’t miss, reflect on the world.. What have you learned so far, from the society, from the world. What is interesting? Which culture, beliefs, and traditions do you like? Which don’t you like or want in society?

Would you want to go back to society, what kind of society would you want to encounter. If you wanted to change something in society what would it be, what would you bring back to society if you could?

Or maybe you want to stay in the cave because you don’t like what you see in society. why would you stay?

I sometimes wonder why people still continuously do ugly things when they are aware that in the end one should face his creator anyway.Or is it just a pure imagination for them?

In the play Twelfth Night, a fool interrupts two conversing gentlemen exclaiming "have you never seen the picture of 'We Three'?" (Act II, Scene iii, line 15). I have heard it is a drawing of two 'asses' looking out to viewer, with the implication that they, too, are a clown. I haven't been able to find any reproduction or the like of the drawing. Does anyone have any information on this?

Imagine that the Earth is going to be hit by a giant meteor in about sixty minutes time. It is now established and is unavoidable. Desperation might set in but surely you would spend the last precious minutes of you life somehow, and the question therefore is, how? What would you like to do? Where would you like to be? Who would you like to be with? And most importantly, what do you think would be going through your mind … has life been good .. or.. ?
