A lot of you are probably wondering why I am calling myself "The Old Fart" and have a Homepage called "Welcome to Old Fart Productions" (See link under My Other Blogs and Goodies).

When I started in the field as a 35mm Film Projectionist some of the concession staff {at the last Cinema I worked in } weren't even born yet. In fact back in 2003 I was the oldest member of the staff at the age of 43. In true Ernest Hemingway form, instead of being "The Old Man and the Sea", I became "The Old Fart of the Theatre" to quote one Manager..

And as they say "The Rest Is History"
"Quotes"

"He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth." Psalm 72:8

"I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind" ~ John George Diefenbaker.

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is
not to utter words, but to live by them" ~ John Fitzgerald Kennedy

For Melli

Whilst I was on the blog, I got exploring some of the archive stuff I wrote. One post I made was "Long Days" and in the post I added a video from Anne Murray and the song that made her famous "Snowbird". Well Melli commented that her favorite Anne Murray Song was " A Little Good News". I found the original video from 1983 and are sharing it here for Melli.

Enjoy



Into Paradise………………….May the Angels lead you.

What is that? (Τι είναι αυτό;)

Found My Sister posted this video on her Facebook and I thought I borrow her Idea and post it here. It is too moving for words to try to even describe.

Enjoy

Dona Nobis Pacem (Grant Us Peace) ~ 2009


Today we take some time out and think about Peace. Since 2006 "Mimi" has been hosting at her place Dona Nobis Pacem {Grant Us Peace}.

Today as we think about Peace I think about 11 November and it's approach when we honor all the Brave Souls who gave of themselves, the ones who didn't return, and the ones who were fortunate enough that did, and gave so much in the name of Peace. I sometimes wonder if it was all in Vain as we are still fighting somewhere. Maybe we need to live by the words of a Wise Man:.

“If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.”
Mahatma Ghandi

Into Paradise......................May the Angels lead you.

God Bless
