Me, Carm, and Shan went out to a bar in Pittsburgh after we had gone with my parents out to dinner. Shan lives in Pittsburgh now with the rest of my mom's side of the fam so we hardly see her unless it is a holiday like Thanksgiving. Here is Carmen in his ultimate Zoolander pose.
Hey everyone! I could use help and advice. Please head over to The Carpetbagger as I continue my effort to make my own Fiji Merman.

Our first night in Cape Town we went to eat supper at a restaurant called Mama Africa on Long Street in the center of town. Throughout our meal we heard vibrant sounds of African music coming from the other room and were seduced. During the band's set break we introduced ourselves and talked with Merman's, the band's leader, about our project and he immediately was in unison with us. We set a time to meet the next day to film and record their music.
One of the first printed records about this gate stated in 1859 "Of all old monuments in the Rhine valley, none as mysterious as the portal (...) near the church in Remagen".
The Pfarrhoftor (= Gateway to the parish close) still is enigmatic. It may have been erected for a nearby monastery, that centered around an St. Apollinaris shrine, it may have been in deed a gate to a parish close. Actually it known since the 17th century, when parts of it were found, walled in between the rectory and the encircling wall. The parts were recovered and like pieces of a puzzle joined together.
Though the cope stone was lost, the large arch was easy to reconstruct. Wether the smaller side portal originally was left or right is unclear.
The 22 carved reliefs here have triggered more than a dozend different theories. I will quote some. The carving style was not appreciated by the art-historians. Already Wilhelm Bode ("Geschichte der Deutschen Plastik") wrote in 1887 that the carver was "without any artistic ambition".
For me this portal has parallels in Linden and Goegging. All three portals are roughly carved - and enigmatic, blending christian, pagan and ancient icons. The only point, that is undisputed is, that the portal was erected in the second half of the 12th century.
It may be, that the reliefs, seen here, are just single icons, that are not interconnected to a certain "iconographic program". This is claimed by Paul Clement (1938), Georg Dehio (1933) and Josef Minn (1942). In 1947 Albert M. Koeniger published the results of his research, interpreting the reliefs as icons of eight (!) deadly sins as described by Bishop Burchard of Worms (965-1025), author of a canon law collection (aka "Decretum Burchardi").
Over the paddling mermaid (left) is this bearded bicaudal merman in a "typical" pose, mostly seen with female species. Koeniger interpretes this as a symbol for arrogance.
Neoprenová ploutev je výborná do chladnějších vod. Tedy čas mimo letní sezonu, potápění, či pro dlouhý pobyt ve vodě.
Neoprene mermaid-tail is great for cooler water. Time outside the summer season, diving, or long stays in the water.

The Forsaken Merman
Come, dear children, let us away;
Down and away below!
Now my brothers call from the bay,
Now the great winds shoreward blow,
Now the salt tides seaward flow;
Now the wild white horses play,
Champ and chafe and toss in the spray.
Children dear, let us away!
This way, this way!
Call her once before you go--
Call once yet!
