Heart warming to say the least. Thank you.

Very nice. Pedal-pushers, mandals and purse, too. Now, try that with an African bull in must.

1) reminds me of the excellent film, “Water For Elephants.”
2) unfortuately, *also* reminds me of those eco-sexuals in love with trees….
3) the piano needs tuning. desperately.
next time get a well-tuned concert grand out there
and play that pachyderm some Rachmaninoff.

I imagine getting that heavy piano out there contributed to the detuning.

My favorite Debussy tunes after “Girl with the Flaxen Hair.”
One of my most favorite composers. His compositions were dreams in a time of terror.
I adore good music. Me and the elephant.

I enjoyed this so much more than the ancient film clip by Thomas Edison when he electrocuted an elephant. That shit really happened, but here’s a video describing Tesla’s misadventures interacting with Edison. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gOR91oentQ

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Lovely
I know they weren’t tears…but still.
Beats the heck out of the seagulls. 😉 Equilibrium restored.
I told you elephants were Modernists.

Gives a new meaning to ‘tickling the ivories’.
either the moon is made of green cheese
or that piano was way, way out of tune.
next time get a well-tuned concert grand out there
and play that pachyderm some Rachmaninoff.
