Sorry Julie . I know i fail'd English but that did not make cents to me at all . Is that what is called ART , sounded to me like the ravings of a mad man that could not think of one thing at a time but then i never did get poetry if that is what it is . *wounded look* THAT is collaborative literature Glenn!! At its deepest and most profound!! AKA seti's very own story thread! Good one Julie!! :))))))))))))) still giggling... :))))) edit: It is NOT the ravings of just ONE mad man... OR woman... |

The siphoning began to drain the green blob matter. So says universe. With its mathematics and quantum physics hard to comprehend when bats fly to the moon, the blue moon... ripe and full in morning glory... gently basking the hippos in their elephant costume so the bats can fly in belfries that soar to incredible heights unknown in this part of the world... But... when they reached the peak... the view was indescribable! The sheer, the shear scale of the expanse of indescribable vastness produced a feeling of infinite, total, bleak utter desolation in the mind of a former president of some failed republic that lost overall tutelage. West Lost Turkey during the rainy, very rainy season on the planet The Story Game, a doppelganger universe in another dimension. Someone is knocking... and wondering why nobody is answering. Looking at their reflection in the home made mirror, that is cracked at the left of the frame after repairing it with super glue, the strongest one finds some way of reattachment with a past memory of a database, used for reconnecting lost lovers with pet rocks that seem to be diamonds sparkling like the stars of Cassiopeia Andromeda and Perseus. The night sky, by Patrick Moore (a good book read by all stargazing people from the fourth planet as the tenth cycle counted down for the Rosicrucians late medieval Germany, where wisdom lies) gem of a book, with colourful illustrations, fashion illustrations rule where surprises lurk around the corner... and behind the bar... where beer flows freely for all beer drinkers from every part of the world as it turns, together with us, spinning like a whirlwind in thorntrees with purple flowers, big green leaves - that tickled one's nose and feet while one is provoking giggles, sneezes - all the while Snow White sleeps until... the Knight, in full ornate forest green tights, feather on hat, bow in hand, and sword in his sword holder, arrows in quiver ready and waiting... only for you to start a new one... that beggared belief! to true wisdom! May it long and truthful be your leading path. The Nile Says I form delta wings for fast meandering of rivers of dreams where Billy Joel would sing with joy. Piano man said an uptown girl goes back downtown to find a modern woman who talks modern too and has a brother named Louie who stands taller with his sister by his side goes for lunch, in an old truck he borrowed from his sister who lived in a log cabin down by the riverbank where current is strong and people can drown. Ocean current waves carry us away to better places where the sun always shines on the wrong side of the big planet on the far side of the solar system. The summer sun could melt the morning dew. When warmed up, one walks in the Resources of Nature while using Apple's Technology of Men and Mice that ate the rats became some bad, even evil, beings from the forbidden big empty barrel which is rolling away from us faster than the speed of light. It was stopped or so it looked to those... ____________ United we stand:) Also... rOZZ Music Pictures |

Pg is parental guidance 12 years or over at least that is what it is here and we are not as strict as in the states. Its true:( Its not up to some weird politician moral and 'concern' for Children to rate anything. In Scandinavia at least its up to the parents to raise and prepare them for the real life. To me the US rating system is like Russia and former DDR. Horrible. I know that are many americans who also object to this. There have been hearings in US Senate about rock lyrics. Al Gore was one in the panel and he's a fan of FZ Music:) Frank Zappa where asked by some stupid woman in the panel about his childrens toys:( "Your welcome to see them at my house" He said. At the same hearing John Denver(!) addressed the same thing. And Dee Snyder:) Opressing of ART! But showing extreme voilence is OK in the US:( |

Science shows like Beyond the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman... Are art program also PG? And if so. Why? Makes no sense. So it's actuallay some persons looking at porn and rate them at three levels. Weird. |

Actually Playboy pictures are pretty decent and I think are closer to erotica than porn. Seeing erotica (art) and getting aroused sexually:) Whats wrong with that? |

Jan i'm shore if i still had all them Penthouse and Playboy mag's i had as a younger man i could find a identical picture to the 1 that was posted here but that one is art but the playboy or Penthouse picture is not because it's in a mag ? I'm not sure what PG means. I think it's about the rating system for TV and movies. We dont have that nonsens in Scandinavia. It doesnt stop kids for seeing all the violence. Everyday! Especially from USA with LOTS of violence and foul langauge! Is that art? Maybe we have more concerned parents here. I dont know. |

Actually Playboy pictures are pretty decent and I think are closer to erotica than porn. Also, since its apparantly not clear what the difference is between porn and erotica (art) ill give it a shot. Porn is intended to arouse sexually. Its banal, flat, devoid of aesthetic or any higher purpose other than for you to get turned on, have a go at touching yourself and then forget about it. Eortica on the other hand has nothing to do with getting you aroused. Its about the aesthetic qualities of the human body and doing something with that. Its not supposed to end up with you getting all aroused by it. |

It's a photo not a picture that was painted so why is one art the other not they would both be photo's only one is called art and not allowed but the other is not because it appeared in a men's mag !!!!!!! Case in point this site is pg but because it's art it's allowed ?!

Jan why is it if you call a nude picture art it is allowed but other pictures no less revealing are porn .?? I think everyone can tell the difference between art and porn. But there are some weird people out there. Pedophiles are the worst... The Vatican. Pedophile perpetrator was a former top diplomat and additionally former archbishop. It made no difference. The man was arrested anyway on the orders of Pope Francis. Now Jozef Wesolowski is under house arrest inside the Vatican awaiting trial. https://translate.google.se/translate?sl=sv&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dn.se%2Fnyheter%2Fvarlden%2Fvatikanen-satter-pedofilanklagad-biskop-i-husarrest%2F&edit-text= |

I think for something to be considered art it has to be created by an artist. The original subject of this discussion, as I understand it, was just found and removed from it's natural surroundings, not altered in any discernable way by the "artist". Now what Michelangelo did with a rock is art. :) Yes It was found and removed from it's natural surroundings. Of course its ART. We have many lovely rocks in our gardens. No artist needed. It is created by NATURE. |

I'd say your holiday snaps are more art than a sadistic iron. Poetry is ART:) But make a living of it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVH5BD58OUQ http://www.seppegebruers.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7N3wA7ItKQ |
