Tomorrow is the 54th anniversary of the moon landing so make sure to leave out cookies and milk for Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins
I like the caption, "Welcome back my friends to the SNOW that never ends."
This will never not be funny.
GOOD BYE 2020, WE WILL NOT MISS YOU
“Biblioteca de la vivienda de Antioquia” by Alejandro García Restrepo
Alan Rickman reads Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130
My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips’ red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask’d, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.
Printed in the late 16th century this small book from the National Library of Sweden is an example of sixfold dos-à-dos binding, where six books are conjoined into a single publication but can be read individually with the help of six perfectly placed clasps. This particular book was printed in Germany and like almost all books at the time is a religious devotional text.

I am closer to believing Than I ever was before On the crest of this elation Must I crash upon the shore And with the driftwood of acquaintance Light the fire to love once more I am wind blown…I am times.
To be closer to believing To be just a breath away On the death of inspiration I would buy back yesterday But there’s no crueller illusion There’s no sharper coin to pay As I reach out… It slips away
From the opium of custom to the ledges of extremes Don’t believe it till you’ve held it Life is seldom what it seems But lay your heart upon the table And in the shuffling of dreams Remember who on earth you are
I need me You need you We want us
But of course you know I love you Or what else am I here for Only you not face to face But side by side for evermore And I need to be here with you For without you what am I Just another fool out searching For some heaven in the sky Take me closer to believing Take me forward lead me on Through collision and confusion While there’s life beneath the sun You are the reason I continue So near for so long So close yet so far away
I need me You need you We want us to live forever Don’t let the curtain fall Measure after measure Of writing on the wall That burns so brightly It blinds us all
I need me You need you We want us to be together On Sundays in the rain Closer than forever Against or with the grain To ride the storms of love again
So be closer to believing Though your world is torn apart For a moment changes all things And to end is but to start And if your journey’s unrewarded May your God lift up your heart You are windblown But you are mine…..
"All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream."
