A Very Special Moment - Issue #3: To This Day
I don't even know where to begin with this, except to say it's pretty darn powerful. You will more than likely shed a tear, if not, that's okay - the message came across to you.
"To This Day" is a narrated poem by Shane Koyczan that shows "the profound and lasting impact that bullying can have on an individual."
Dozens of collaborators from around the world helped to bring this piece to life. Learn more about them and the project at http://www.tothisdayproject.com.

Loving One Another - Issue No. 019
Love is like magic
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!
Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!
Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.
Love is the answer
Love can't be bought,
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!
Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!
Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.
Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind!!
Love is the answer
That everyone seeks...
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.
Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!!"

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words - Issue No. 9
The last issue of "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words" was nearly a year ago. I know - that's crazy; March 13, 2012 to be exact.
In either case, for those who haven't seen my previous issues I started this series as a way to introduce my readers to the world of art through words. And by words, I mean where the artist has taken several hundred pieces of text and created a masterpiece; it could be a self-portrait, landscape or still-life. It's called Typographical Art, much like a typographical quote you see posted on a Facebook news feed from time to time. But with hundreds, if not thousands of words instead of just a few.
Today's issue is nothing short of amazing. The artist known simply as Straye-Close
spent over 150 hours creating this masterpiece. Every whisker, every
wrinkle, every feature uses a word describing something. From the name,
Morgan Porterfield Freeman Jr., movies he's been in, characters of the
people he's played in those movies, awards he has won, and almost every
quote he could find for those films. Truly an extraordinary piece of art!

Isn't This The Truth? The Science of Dogs
The following chart is too hilarious, but oh so true. Think about it... When are dogs afraid of bears, snakes, oncoming traffic, or in mine and Ryan's case, bigger dogs? Never! But bring out the Vacuum Cleaner and they run like a bat out of hell.

Saturday Night Live: The Walking Dead
If you've never seen The Walking Dead on TNT, then you might not get some of the references made to the show.
In the following SNL skit, the group tries to avoid any type of racism or political incorrectness. LOL.
