An iconic sequence from one of the most ground-breaking natural history series produced by the BBC.
From Wikipedia:
"Attenborough originally intended merely to get close enough to narrate a piece about the apes' use of the opposable thumb, but as he advanced on all fours toward the area where they were feeding, he suddenly found himself face to face with an adult female. Discarding his scripted speech, he turned to camera and delivered a whispered ad lib:
"There is more meaning and mutual understanding in exchanging a glance with a gorilla than with any other animal I know. Their sight, their hearing, their sense of smell are so similar to ours that they see the world in much the same way as we do. We live in the same sort of social groups with largely permanent family relationships. They walk around on the ground as we do, though they are immensely more powerful than we are. So if there were ever a possibility of escaping the human condition and living imaginatively in another creature's world, it must be with the gorilla. The male is an enormously powerful creature but he only uses his strength when he is protecting his family and it is very rare that there is violence within the group. So it seems really very unfair that man should have chosen the gorilla to symbolise everything that is aggressive and violent, when that is the one thing that the gorilla is not — and that we are." "
You can see part of the sequence in this video, around the 2:28 mark.
Over 30 years later 'Life On Earth' still amazes, both for the spectacular filming and for David Attenborough's sheer enthusiasm for the subject. Some of the palaeontological information has moved on since it was made, but otherwise it has stood the test of time very well.
The scene was recreated in Lego, using a 'natural' backdrop for FGR's 'Toys In The Frame' day.

My brother's youngest child. <3
"So a priest and rabbi walk into this bar….
~~~~~~~~~~~
I always have known my father was a great man-
Loving, kind, funny, smart, brave, generous, accepting, talented…
I mean, look around me. Surrounded by his legacy of love, light and song.
But, In seeing and being and examining my Dad’s essence this week,
The man without form,
I feel a gently loving spirit; a spirit that transcended the trevails;
the tragedies; the challenges
And through it all,
Managed to provide us all with unconditional love, encouragement
Acceptance and wisdom.
IF spirituality is the courage to be fearless in the face of lost hope And
The faith to know there will always be hope?
That was my dad. A strong shining light who forever lit the path for us Who forever will be in our hearts.
In his honor , I would like to share 3 short poems:
One he recited often, then
One of his favorites,
And one he wrote to his soulmate."

==================
This photo is part of our online exhibition A Thousand Words
Visit the exhibition: atwonline.com.au/
‘A picture tells a thousand words’ is the premise of our exciting, new online exhibition that places people at the heart of the curatorial journey. A Thousand Words, marks our first collaboration with another one of Australia’s leading cultural institutions; Sydney Living Museums and features 100 of the most compelling photographic images from our collections.
Unlike conventional curated exhibitions, A Thousand Words invites the public to respond to these extraordinary images of people, places and events in NSW spanning 100 years from 1880 – 1980.
This is chicken pie with a semi-tossed salad!
Our daughter-in-law cooked us a meal and the veg was just chopped iceberg lettuce with a sauce (Jules says it was vinaigrette) so I thought I'd try it with chicken pie.
My version (I adlib'ed!) has boiled potatoes (cut into small chunks with skins left on) and carrots and peas mixed in with the iceberg lettuce and then I added parsley sauce. Surprisingly, it tasted quite yummy.
I have two maxims - chips with everything, and gravy with everything. I'm not a fan of dry food although I'll (semi) happily eat it that way if someone else has cooked it. So the parsley sauce was a good alternative as it happens. Tomato ketchup is not allowed near my food, if that is what you were thinking would work - LoL.

Steinar is a Norwegian jazz and roots musician, touring both with his own band, Stillhouse, as a solo artist and in other constellations.
Unni Wilhelmsen has had a very successful solo career for 30 years and is also a part of the huge Norwegian band Di Derre.
Even as a print - Picasso is a master of the line.

I saw A Midsummer Night’s Dream performed by Falcon Theater. It was set in 1950’s Hollywood and included some clever adlibs and a most apropos song and dance sequence. I loved it.
