Tweeting Away

Thou Shalt Rest Thy Weary Mind

How much of my brain power is used to store the hundreds and thousands of lyrics to songs I've listened to since childhood, I wonder?

For everyone on sem break, especially to the SDL people, here's a nice song to wake up to every morning. (Preferably, you're also waking up to the sound of lightly crashing waves, salty air and a nice ocean breeze.)

Also for everyone who's been dying for a damn break: here's something to cheer you up for until your moment of glory comes...and it will. I promise.

"Inaudible Melodies" - Jack Johnson (seashore minstrel)
Brushfire fairytales
Itsy bitsy diamond wells
Big fat hurricanes
Yellow bellied given names
Well shortcuts can slow you down
And in the end we're bound
To rebound off of we
Well dust off your thinking caps
Solar powered plastic plants
Pretty pictures of things we ate
We are only what we hate
But in the long run we have found
Silent films are full of sound Inaudibly free
Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Inaudible melodies
Serve narrational strategies
Unobtrusive tones
Help to notice nothing but the zone
Of visual relevancy
Frame-lines tell me what to see
Chopping like an axe
Or maybe Eisenstein should just relax
Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Well Plato's cave is full of freaks
Demanding refunds for the things they've seen
I wish they could believe
In all the things that never made the screen
And just slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Moving Too....
