THis is one of my all-time favorite songs.
In high-school, we had a project for our video production class. It was to videotape still photos and time it so they went along with a song you picked.
I chose Pink Floyd's Time for my project and I think I did a good job. it was well received

Sounds like a cool project. I think it's interesting how lyrics gain and lose meaning throughout your life.
This one just grabbed me a while back while I was listening to some Roger Waters bootlegs while driving down the road. You can't really miss the meaning, but it actually meant something to me.

Similar to the previous post, but what kind of things are you glad you made the time for?
I backpacked through some of Europe for a month. Awesome time.
I'm glad I decided to switch careers from restaurant management to computer programming
Always seems easier to think up for the other list....

Just wondering about those things that hang around on your ToDo list for years. Like learning to play an instrument effectively, or writing a novel, or visiting each continent, or becoming a good cook, etc...
You know, the stuff we have errrr, make the time to do.
What kind of things are still on your list, and do you think you'll really accomplish some of them?

I have a huge list of things I want to do in my life. I'm just lucky 'cause I still have lots of time to do them and I'm not really in a rush (yet).
I'll probably want to do the more active things while I'm still young though. Like skydiving, white water rafting etc.

Much better now.

could you also say it is barrenless? Sort of the opposite of emptyful.

What are you drinking in that pic? Your tongue is really red!
Somehow, I like seeing pics of people when they were kids...don't know why. Maybe the innocence?

Me too. Nothing like seeing a kid goofing around, and just having fun doing something silly.

It's fantastic! I haven't had alot of time to play, but it's coming along. I'll get some pictures posted in the next week or so.
I can't wait to get a tripod. I took some night shots alongside the highway, but there's no way I could hold it still enough for a clear shot with a 4 sec. exposure.
Thanks again for the suggestion, it's perfect for me. Not too intimidating, but plenty of flexibility.
