May 31, 20188 yr I wrote a song for all the stay-at-home dads.* Here's the backing track. "I'm glad you're home Now did you really miss me I guess you did by the look in your eyes (look in your eyes) Well lay back, and relax, while I put away the dishes Then you and me Can rock a bye I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell The night is young and full of possibilities Well come on and let yourself be free My love for you so long I've been savin' The night was made for me and you I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell (disco instrumental break) (I can ring your bell I can ring your bell Ding dong ding ah I can ring your bell I can ring your bell Anytime Anywhere) I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell I can ring your bell, ring your bell (Ring a ling a ling)" (Yes, it's now a song about servicing your woman.) *Not really. I was practicing singing by singing (specificity of training), and I was having trouble hitting the high notes, so I tried lowering it an octave. With a man singing it, it sounded a little too...selfish, for lack of a better word. I really liked the dynamic of the original song, so I thought about rearranging the lyrics to say the same thing, only from the other perspective—I can ring your bell. So I went through the rest of the lyrics to see what else I had to change. Not a single other thing. So it’s basically the same lyrics with “you can ring my bell“ changed to “I can ring your bell”.
June 2, 20188 yr Not as cool as the Emilia Clarke video, but this TED talk blew me away. https://www.ted.com/talks/aaswath_raman_how_we_can_turn_the_cold_of_outer_space_into_a_renewable_resource?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_content=bottom_right_image&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare Edited June 2, 20188 yr by ironbut
June 16, 20188 yr Ben Nevis in perfect Winter conditions. Very rare, and with a guy who knows what he is doing, going up one of the more challenging routes.
June 16, 20188 yr This is a POV by a guy who knows Nevis exceptionally well - all the routes. This is long, but utterly mesmeric. He goes from the head of the East Gulley (itself a challenging grind) to the top of Nevis via the Great Tower. A technically challenging scramble. The scariest bit is at about 1h5m, on the way back down from the Tower along a knife edge with lethal drops, and then Tower Gap - a vertical slab with certain death if you make a mistake. I don't have any wish to scramble at anything like that level. Edited June 16, 20188 yr by Craig Sawyers
June 19, 20188 yr I don't remotely know what sort of emoticon to leave for that spooky and frighting vocoded Trump. Like, sad, confused, ha ha. It could be either of those. But not congratulations Mr T, definitely not.
