Afraid of being outshone by the Rock in the "Race to the Bottom", the L&N fielded this impressive display of E6's at Louisville, KY in the 1960s. I give it 7 out of 10.

 

Little did either know, the Milwaukee was hiding in the wings prepared to pounce...and the Montgomery Burns Award For Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence remains unclaimed.

“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person”

 

Marriage statistics are disheartening to look at.

 

Half of marriages end in divorce. It's a fact, but it isn't the full reality. The statistics don't even take "seperations" into account. A lot of people are legally married and yet no longer together. It just costs too much money for the lawyer fees and they don't want to deal with the hassle. I know 3 couples that are in that situation.

 

So MORE than half of marriages fail.

 

Yet people are getting married every day even though the odds are clearly against them succeeding.

 

Why is that?

 

I guess it's for the same reason Eric and I got married. We want to believe that we're going to be the small percentage bracket that makes it to the end. The old couple on the park bench holding hands and gazing into eachother's sagging watery eyes still with the love and passion that we feel today.

 

I really believe we will. You can chalk it up to youthful idealism, but thats how I feel in my heart. I look forward to growing old with Eric.

 

I found these Tiny dolls in a small box of knick knacks I unpacked today. I'm not sure where they came from! I used them to test out the macro function on my Nikon.

 

It's hard to ignore how they both look a little afraid and uneasy.

I've walked these streets a thousand times

Your death will never set colder

Compromised a thousand times

To the will of a vicious mind

I'm afraid I still feel as thought I've been riding a Clydesdale twice a day for five hours. I just don't remember doing it or why I got talked into it. That's the way I feel: I want to feel like Sammy looked so many years ago.

 

Thanks for all the well wishes, but this looks like a long haul and, wouldn't you know it, every pain doc in the west is sitting on a beach in the Carribbean. Oh, did I tell you, that my Clydesdale is carved from boulders at Ruby Beach in Washington State. With any luck there are sprinal decompression shots in my future no later than Wednesday!

“Есть свет. Надежда есть. Христос призвал: «Не бойтесь!», и я призываю вместе с ним. Потому что страх очень плохое руководство. Господь с нами. Мы пережили не одно бедствие, и это переживем с Божьей помощью. Механизмы гибридной войны, которая против нас ведется, направлены на то, чтобы устрашить человека. Парализовать его волю, способность ясно мыслить, действовать, добро делать. Я уверен, что когда мы делаем добро, мы становимся очень сильными. Поэтому такой мой совет: хотите почувствовать собственную силу — творите добро! И тогда вы увидите, что мы способны быть очень сильными.” Блаженнейший Святослав Шевчук

 

“There is light. There is hope. Christ called: "Do not be afraid!", and I call with him. Because fear is a very bad guide. The Lord is with us. We have experienced more than one disaster, and we will survive this with God's help. The mechanisms of the hybrid war that is being waged against us are aimed to frighten a person. To paralyze his will, the ability to think clearly, act, do good. I am sure that when we do good, we become very strong. Therefore, this is my advice: if you want to feel your own strength, do good! And then you will see that we are capable of being very strong.”

Socialism is a very jealous philosophy. Bill Ayers group the weathermen underground wanted to overthrow the government in the late 60s and 70s. They said that all would have to go along with their way of thinking. They were going to set up re-education camps in the US Southwest. They said they would eliminate all those that did not come around to their way of thinking (socialism/communism). They said they expected they would have to kill about 25,000,000 Americans

With the release of The Force Awakens on DVD and the Rogue One trailer (expect some content from that soon), I decided to finally post a figure I finished over a month ago.

 

I've seen some beautifully sculpted Rey figures, but in the movie her clothes were worn down and beaten up; I wanted to recreate that look and capture that aspect of her. A lot of the details are left out from this angle, I'll be sure to cover them in the showcase video.

 

I want to thank KitBricksto for designing this beautiful speeder, I followed his instructions and built my own copy of it and added the net. I also want to thank KevFett2011 for the photo of the crashed Star Destroyer in the background, it's an amazing MOC and I thought it'd fit perfectly with this figure.

 

This will be the first of a few TFA figs that I'll be working on after I get some commissions finished (making progress!). So as always, expect more, and I'd love to hear your thoughts!

It has been awhile since I built a ship from a video game. Which is quite unfortunate since Sci-Fi VTOLs are one of my favourite subjects. They often have very distinct and interesting shapes.

 

And this one is no different: The redesigned Phantom from "Titanfall 2"

 

Even if you played the game you might not have spotted this vehicle. It is sometimes seen flying in the background, but the player never engages with it in any way.

Still, it is one of my favourite designs in the game. The winglets and the color-scheme are my personal highlights.

 

I said "redesigned" earlier, because the Phantom from the original Titanfall looked a bit different and I decided to build the newer version here.

 

I used chromed parts for the highlights and a bunch of original LEGO printed parts for the details.

 

Hope you like it!

Spring arrived but the weather is aweful here. We have a lot of rain and it's cold and grey. So yesterday I was looking through my pictures to find a photo that would satisfy my needs...

 

Wishing you all a colourful day and a Happy Feathery Friday!

One thing in life that I'm not afraid of is color. Maybe I embrace color so much because I'm an artist or maybe because I grew up in Detroit; the home of pink gators.

of people.

what if they identify me as strange, because they can't understand me?

i hide too much.

because when i try to blend, it doesn't work.

i feel most comfortable,

 

alone,

on top of mountains.

  

Are you afraid of me?

You skirt around the edges of my conscience like a phantom, barely visible yet occasionally flitting into the spotlight. You cannot seem to bear the risk of confrontation and yet you cannot talk to me either, as if I've offended your very existance.

Tell me, because it's difficult to understand. One moment you are everything.

The next you're barely there.

 

Cowardice is quite an interesting concept. I was all psyched up to leap into this lake, but when it came to it I just couldn't do it; I couldn't take the last step, since I couldn't see the bottom of the lake, I couldn't even gage how deep it was. And I was slightly aware that if anything happened, no one even knew where I was. So, I didn't. But I will. One day.

 

I always thought I was courageous.

 

Outtakes from today.
