walker
He's a pool-shootin' son of a gun
Yeah, he big and dumb as a man can come
But he stronger than a country hoss
And when the bad folks all get together at night
You know they all call big jim "boss", just because
And they say

You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

Well outta south Alabama came a country boy
He say I'm lookin' for a man named Jim
I am a pool-shootin' boy
My name Willie McCoy
But down home they call me

One day soon, man is going to be able to harness incredible energy -- maybe even the atom. Energy that could ultimately hurl men to other worlds in some sort of spaceship. And the men that reach out into space will find ways to feed the hungry millions of the world, and to cure their diseases. They'll be able to find a way to give each man hope and a common future. And those are the days worth living for…..

"….Man with his flaming pyre
Has conquered the wayward breezes
Climbing to tranquility
Far above the cloud
Conceiving the heavens
Clear of misty shroud

Higher and higher
Now we've learned to play with fire
Go higher and higher and higher….

Vast vision must improve our sight
Perhaps at last we'll see an end
To our own endless blight
And the beginning of the free
Climb to tranquility
Finding it's real worth
Conceiving the heavens
Flourishing on earth

Higher and higher
Now we've learned to…."

talk to the animals, just imagine it
Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee
Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah
What a neat achievement it would be
If we could talk to the animals, learn all their languages
I could take an animal degree
I'd study elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle
Alligator, guinea pig, and flea
I would converse in polar bear and python
And I would curse in fluent kangaroo
If people ask me, "Can you speak rhinoceros?"

Barrage coming in was quite terrific. You could feel the whole ground shaking toward the coast. Soon they lifted the barrage farther inland. They sounded so big, and being poor bloody infantry, we had never been under naval fire before and these damn great shells came sailing over, such a size that you automatically ducked, even in the pillbox, as one went over, and my radio operator was standing next to me, very perturbed about this, and finally he said, 'blimey, sir, they're firing

off complaints about the dull romantic subplots. O'Brien in certainly not the perfect writer, given to stating rather than showing character development that occurs outside of his arena of strength: the dialogue between his two protagonists and their directly-connected internal monologues. However, reading his books is far more satisfying than watching the film adaptation of Forester's work.

Here we are treated to the worn tale of the chosen one meeting his destiny, putting not a foot wrong on his way to greatness. The formula is of the antagonist-per-episode who either learns a lesson in three weeks that he failed to in all his long life, instructed of course by our poorly-sketched prodigy, or he dies. In either case, the reformed or dying cries melodramatically. Combined with the treatment of the audience as having no skills of interpretation, with all plot elements painfully explicated, the whole affair defies its rating by smacking of the family-friendly Saturday matinee, or worse, the patronising primary school educational movie, saving teachers from teaching and forcing students to write a tedious report.

While O'Brien's captain benefits from being gifted with the tactical successes of dozens of historical…

games during the mid-20th century. Most of these games can be divided into three basic types: luck, strategy, and knowledge. Basic strategy and luck games from ancient times such as chess have often been remade multiple times. For example, the 1934 game Sorry, is really another knockoff of Parcheesi, which owes a great deal to ancient games played in

I think
When I look up real high
That there's such a big world up there
I'd like to give it a try
But then I sink
Cos it's here I'm suppossed to stay

But I get so lonely down here
Tell me why does it have to be that way
Up there there is so much room
Where babies burp and flowers bloom
Everyone dreams, I can dream too
Up there,
Up where
the skys are ocean blue
I could be safe and live without a care up

And there the world below can't bother me

And all my cares just drift right into space
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)

On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)

At night the stars put on a show for free
And, darling, you can share it all with me
