"Remember me as you pass by
As you are now so once was I.
As I am now so you will be
Prepare for death and follow me."
Memorial benches in the shade of Middlewood Way, the old railway line now silent of the steam trains that used to pass by
memories are like balloons that we carried behind our back. we all try to keep the good and colorful, but pop the bad ones .... ;-)

In honor of all those who have given their lives to protect others.
My country,' tis of thee,
sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing;
land where my fathers died,
land of the pilgrims' pride,
from every mountainside let freedom ring!
My native country, thee,
land of the noble free, thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
thy woods and templed hills;
my heart with rapture thrills, like that above.
Let music swell the breeze,
and ring from all the trees sweet freedom's song;
let mortal tongues awake;
let all that breathe partake;
let rocks their silence break, the sound prolong.
Our fathers' God, to thee,
author of liberty, to thee we sing;
long may our land be bright
with freedom's holy light;
protect us by thy might, great God, our King.
America (or My Country, 'Tis of Thee) text by Samuel F. Smith, (1808-1895)
This small plaque is at the highest point on Hadrian's Wall, not everyone notices it but I always take a moment to think of this young man.
Will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin’ in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one
Will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories...

Remembering Malayan Tiger Jalil
The staff at the Zoo and especially the keepers in Night Hunters are mourning the loss of our male Malayan tiger, Jalil who passed away on Tuesday during a procedure that revealed significant age-related medical issues. We knew he was in decline and past the life expectancy for his species, but it’s still hard. Jalil is the father of 3 cubs with the female Cinta. Cubs are on display at the Night Hunters Exhibit.
Sorry for the orange-niss.I dont know why its like that.
Anyways,you've probably forgotten who I am.I'm really sorry about not uploading pictures.I've just been really uninspired.Sometimes I look at my pictures and I think "yuck" and I want to delete all of them. But in a way,you can't really compare your work with other peoples',just like art.Because everyones style is different.It wouldn't be that interesting if it was all the same.
And yes,I still love dolls and I'm not going to be all "I'm leaving Flickr/Youtube!" I just wanted to let you guys know :)
I may upload some of the photos I took from May/June
P.S. Sorry for the rant xD
Used to love campfire Marshmellows...mostly I remember them in wax paper...a Five pound tin must be for a boy scout cookout. Or the Kkwwwuuusssshhhhhh of Maxwell House Coffee, pop the key off the top, lift the tab and insert it into the key and roll it around the top of the can...forthose of you familiar with a 12 inche black and white TV with tubes in it, you could here the sounds on the Maxwell House commercial for 'I Remember Mama"
The setting has changed since my last visit and now the sculptures are visible from outside the park and they are easier to photograph.
NOTE: The female nude is Oscar’s wife [Constance Lloyd] who was six months pregnant when Oscar had his first homosexual encounter. Apparently she should be facing Oscar but someone tried to steal the bronze and when the authorities restored it they installed it facing the wrong direction.
Merrion Square is a Georgian garden square on the southside of Dublin city centre. The poet, novelist, and satirist Oscar Wilde lived at No. 1, poet W. B. Yeats lived at No. 82, and Daniel O'Connell at No. 58, now home to the Keough-Naughton Center of the University of Notre Dame. The National Maternity Hospital is on the North terrace. A number of houses in the square have plaques with historical information on former notable residents, including A.E. (George William Russell) and Sheridan Le Fanu.
You can find Oscar Wilde's statue in Merrion Square Public Park. The statue shows Oscar Wilde reclining on a large granite rock without a care in the world. The statue is positioned so that he is looking at his old family home number 1 Merrion Square, on the north side of Merrion Square.
Danny Osborne was commissioned to sculpt the Oscar Wilde Statue by the Guinness Ireland group. The process took over two years from start to finish. The sculptor used colored stones and stones with varying textures to give the statue a much more lifelike representation of Oscar Wilde. Green stone is used in Oscar's jacket and red stones are used in the jacket's lapels and cuffs.
Two stone pillars stand nearby the sculpture which are covered in Oscar Wilde quotes.
Bert: "Hey, you've got a banana in your ear!"
Ernie: "What?"
Bert: "I said, YOU'VE GOT A BANANA IN YOUR EAR!"
Ernie: "What? I can't hear you; I've got a banana in my ear!"
Bert: "Hey, you've got a banana in your ear!"
Ernie: "I know, I'm keeping the alligators away."
Bert: "But there aren't any alligators on Sesame Street!"
Ernie: "I know, it's working!"
