“ Meta AI Scenery “ // Vicente Font
The actor Richard Burton playing Richard Burton. People will understand that actors of his generation are completely different than actors today. The exception of course is the actor trained on the stage as he was. Yet even these actors are not of his caliber. He makes the most mundane of topics into a drama. Today Hollywood actors are not as interesting. Nor do they even feel obliged to behave in a civil manner with the press or fans. I don’t think they even come close to this legend.

What your folks grew up on.
Today we bring you a lovely pair of musically-gifted thrushes!
The Naturalist’s Library praises the tunes of the Song Thrush (upper right):
“The cheerful melody of the common Song-Thrush, in a balmy evening of spring, cheers the early labourer, and is listened to with a delight and quiet pleasure which is felt by all.”
However, Jardine is not quite as impressed with the blackbird (lower left):
“His song is full and deep, but has a greater monotony of tone, and wants the clear and varied notes of the Song Thrush, and we do not think that it is either so frequently sung or so long continued at a time. It is, nevertheless, a better cage bird than the other, is more sprightly in its manners, is easily tamed, and learns to whistle parts of tunes, and even to imitate the sound of one or two words.”
