Ok. This here is some more from Eduardo. (It was part of a personal letter to me, regarding the posting of his pictures in the Photographers' Gallery) I hope that I haven't infringed any copyrights, Eduardo but I just thought that it was too good to waste! So here it is... These pictures are a personal journey. In time, you will find the lives behind these scenes; it is part of a playwright sharing of his work, with the world...first and foremost with, bagoon kapit bahay, in the Pearl of the Orient. Thanks for posting those pictures for me, really appreciate it. Seaman for thirty years? Transform that feeling, my friend. In each dancing waves, see your little girls eyes, their smiles, in the sunrise and sunset, of each horizon, their hearts shine upon your thoughts, and a smile upon the memories shared beside them...They're precious and this journey, you will not be doing it over, again!. MAKE THE BEST OF IT; leave footprints on the sands of time!!! Eduardo Postscriptum: Take care of yourself, their silence awaits anxiously your return. Make sure to send them something, from every coastline you dock into... They will cherish it !!!

This came in an e-mail... 30 Years Difference: 1973: Long hair 2003: Longing for hair 1973: KEG 2003: EKG 1973: Acid rock 2003: Acid reflux 1973: Moving to California because it's cool 2003: Moving to California because it's warm 1973: Trying to look like Liz Taylor 2003: Trying NOT to look like Liz Taylor 1973: Seeds and stems 2003: Roughage 1973: Hoping for a BMW 2003: Hoping for a BM 1973: The Grateful Dead 2003: Dr. Kevorkian 1973: Going to a new, hip joint 2003: Receiving a new hip joint 1973: Rolling Stones 2003: Kidney Stones 1973: Passing the drivers' test 2003: Passing the vision test Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things. The people who are starting college this fall across the nation were born in 1987. ~ They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up. ~ Their lifetime has always included AIDS . ~ Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic. ~ The CD was introduced the year they were born. ~ They have always had an answering machine ~ They have always had cable. ~ They cannot fathom not having a remote control. ~ Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show. ~ Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave. ~ They never took a swim and thought about Jaws. ~ They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are. ~ They don't know who Mork was or where he was from. ~ They never heard: "Where's the Beef?", "I'd walk a mile for a Camel", or "de plane Boss, de plane". ~ They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is. ~ McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers. ~ They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter. ~ Do you feel old yet? (Sorry) Notice the larger type, that's for those of you who have trouble reading. Save the earth. It's the only planet with chocolate.

Boy Lugaw's in Arquiza Street, Ermita, Manila. Just a small "tindahan" (store) - between the Hotel La Corona and Cowboy Grill, Mabini. This place was featured in Ted Lerma's book, "Hey Joe!" A great place for some local flavor. I would recommend any tourist who is staying more than one night in Ermita to pay the place a visit - even if it is only to enjoy a few 25 peso beers, before hitting the town! A picture is coming... I'm just waiting 'till I can get a good shot of Boy with his Stomach hanging out!!

Amazonia, 470 M.H. del Pilar St., (on the corner of Santa Monica,) Ermita, Manila. (Tel: 02 450 0126 0r 02 450 0127) The waitresses are friendly and very efficient. Not every night is a band night, though, so call first and see who is playing. The place is open 24 hours and they do a great breakfast too. (They also serve great coffee. I prefer theirs to Starbucks any day!) Update - April 25, 2006: I was in there a few days ago and they tried to charge me PHP 110 for a bottle of San Miguel Pale Pilsen (smb.) I don't mind paying a premium for a decent beer in nice surroundings but, to my mind, PHP 110 is taking the piss... Still, each to their own. Amazonia has its share of freelance girls but they are less insistent there than, say, L.A. Cafe (just across the road.) So if you just want a quiet beer and you are not too worried about the price, Amazonia might fit the bill. Updated details - Venue closed-down Update - 28/04/2019: This place has been closed for years...

From: http://www.artexpression.com/ Information on Giclees The contemporary gicl?e has become a valuable part of the limited edition fine art world. Gicl?e, a word derived from a French verb meaning, ?that which is sprayed by a nozzle?, is an archival fine art digital print. Gicl?es are created by a method of printing in which the image is scanned and digitally enhanced on a computer to match the original fine art. The image is then sent to a high-resolution inkjet printer, which sprays millions of microscopic droplets of ink onto various substrates to create an image with smooth tonal gradation. The superior quality of these gicl?e prints are many times combined with the human touch of hand-embellishments to give a more powerful appeal among consumers that want the look of an original fine art image at a more affordable price. They are available starting at $210.00 from artExpression's Giclee Section. Our Giclee Section has a selection of some of our top sellers.

She sounds interesting! :grin:

Here's you're chance to let me know what you think about this site! -
Awesome! :roll: (Don't forget to post a link to your website! You can also add it to both your profile and to your signature. artfreaks.com has an open linking policy!) :grin:

I'd like to see those temples! Got any pictures you can post? (Just use the "Img" button and insert a URL...)

I love Rock and Roll (Led Zep, Judas Priest Lynerd Skynherd - all that stuff!!). I also love a lot of classical music and I adore Italian opera. esp. Puccini and Donizetti! What can I do for music? Give it a bad name, probably!!

Suggestions for categories and forums?
smb replied to smb's topic in Intros and members announcements/advertising
One thing I really like about http://www.bobongbooks.com is that the site owner has kept to only two categories in his forums and the number of forums within those categories is also very limited. This makes it very easy on the eye for anyone visiting his forums for the first time. So, in view of this, I will I will introduce a new forum for games but, I would ask users if they could make do with the existsing forums for the following:- The classroom - Please start a new thread for this in "Arts in General" Family Discussions - Please post these in "General Chat" Classifieds - Please use the "Advertise" forum in "Announcements" By the way, do feel free to post company information - links to your own site, whatever. artfreaks.com is a member of http://www.honestlinks.net and we believe in an open linking policy and a WORLDWIDE WEB of quality links. All I would ask is that people state clearly, exactly where and to what the link will take them. (And click on one of my text ads - before moving on!!) :oops: Regarding the "muscle museum-art gallery for everybody," there is a forum for posting pictures but people are welcome to post pictures anywhere on these forums. (Just use the "Img" and insert a link to a picture on another website somewhwere.) For those that don't have their pictures stored on another website anywhere, there will also be a completely seperate "Photo Gallery" and "Art Gallery" (The links have already been installed on the home page but I have yet to install the actual galleries themselves. - More pennies needed! :sad: ) anyway, when those two galleries are up and running, people will be able to post their photos - or pictures of their art, directly from their hard drives. Have fun!! :grin: -
When I get a chance, I'm gonna down-load some more wacky emoticons! :ANAL:

Why Do Some People Hate Realism?
smb replied to vrenda_mage's topic in Jokes, nonsense and silly games
Yeah! That's me!!! Joke! No... I do talk to much - and I KNOW when I'm right. But let's be fair - we can't live on ideals alone. Somewhere along the line, there has to be a balance between idealism and realism. -
I smoke cigars. It makes me look like the stinking exhaust pipe of a badly maintained truck! But I don't smoke indoors and I don't smoke my cigars in front of other people...

Actually, I forget to post a follow-up to this... I've updated the reank names and they are now as follows:- 0 - 19: Scribbler 20 - 49: Scrawler 50 - 99: Getting There! 100 - 199: A cool artist! 200 - 499: Already Famous! 500 Plus: Maestro / Maestra!

I don't know - but if they are, it sounds good to me! Seriously, tell us more...!

He he!! I'm an apprentice now!!! 20 posts and counting...
-
And VERY nice it is too!! Don't forget a link to artfreaks.com on your links page...

Uh, ok! Thanks for the info. If I get 2 secs from this mayhem of trying to get two sites into some sort of shape, I'll take a look. I just got a real rollocking from an adviser over those frames, so they had to go... :cry: Right... just to see if I can get this ball rolling, I'm gonna TRY and get a friend of mine to post some of her stuff, so do please check in from time to time...

Perhaps you believe that your smoking habit is just YOUR problem. But did you ever stop to think about why non-smokers are so outspoken about smoking in public? The second-hand smoke issue is highly charged and it is still hotly debated. What's your opinion on this?
-
I've never heard of any of them... So what are Kathy Riechs and David Gemmell known for?

Well, they are, aren't they? I've been trying for days to find a website where you can check the site statistics for any website that you like. I KNOW such a site exists but, no matter which search engine I use and what keywords I enter, all I get is the same old free web-stats and other web tools sites coming up. That is NOT what I want!!! :x :evil: :twisted: :x I have a lead, and I have sent an e-mail. WHEN I eventually find that site that I am looking for, I'll put a link to them in my "Internet Links" section. Meanwhile, you might like to take a look at this: (Link deleted... No longer active) It's well worth a read! (Well... it would have been - if it was still there!)
