I’m not sure why our bills, text books, and news shows never had a similar impact, but that movie really made me feel like I was participating in something historical significant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-81242620766860277562008-04-16T13:32:00.000+01:002008-04-16T13:32:00.000+01:00Yes we live amongst icons.

In particular I'm good friends with the Capitol, since it's only 10 blocks away. <BR/><BR/>I've danced with these icons, gossiped with them, put my hands on them and delivered Reiki, photographed them endlessly, (but never with people standing in front of them, waving).<BR/><BR/>Great post! I like it here, too, including the flying monkeys.Reya Mellickerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076092659507965666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-42102520828006114462008-04-15T22:52:00.000+01:002008-04-15T22:52:00.000+01:00It's true!
