For sure, I am glad you are here once more with me.<br /><br />I am not certain I ever had heard John Lennon singing "Be My Baby" before this week. There is another version of this song by him, too, but it is a bit over the top from my point of view. As for Ritchie Blackmore, I love his guitar work, especially in "Son of Alerik."<br /><br />Ole Rolvaag is an artist; Victor Davis Hanson is brilliant. Read Rolvaag to learn about human emotions and pioneer experiences at the most elemental levels; read Hanson to learn about the intricacies of war and warriors.<br /><br />It might not always seem that way, but I think my life view is positive and optimistic. It might not always appear so because I am serious and surround myself with skepticism and sarcasm, and I never stop asking questions. But, all my stories have happy endings.<br /><br />Thank you, once more, for your many visits to me and your many smiles for me today, Smareis. May you have peace and harmony and enjoyment during your Sunday.Fram Actualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540773153894050197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-80083781035039658072015-03-29T03:36:00.477+02:002015-03-29T03:36:00.477+02:00Hello Fram,

John Lennon é imortal ficou na história. Ritchie Blackmore não conhecia as músicas.<br />Não conheço os livros do Ole Rolvaag, nem o do Victor Davis Hanson, pelo jeito que você fala parece que são bons.<br /><br />Acho que sua apreciação de vida é positiva. Precisamos batalhar por tudo aquilo que achamos que é certo, e o que nos vai fazer bem., seja qual for a dificuldade que tiver que passar.<br /><br />Um ótimo fim de semana!<br />Punhado de sorrisos lhe envio.Smareishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04480560906841229369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-582037075232167622015-03-29T03:33:29.062+02:002015-03-29T03:33:29.062+02:00Yes, Boris, there is a very distinct difference be...Yes, Boris, there is a very distinct difference between someone who idealizes something and someone who is simply fascinated by it -- in this instance, "the something" being war. I think too often people reach conclusions without looking deeply enough into matters, or are predisposed to reach conclusions based upon their own beliefs and prejudices. Anyway, I am glad you approved of my effort to distinguish between idealization and fascination, and that you agree it is important to fight for what one thinks is good.<br /><br />Thank you, Boris, for your appearance and your comment.Fram Actualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540773153894050197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-20062675399727906872015-03-29T03:22:35.390+02:002015-03-29T03:22:35.390+02:00I believe I always am in love, Anita, with an idea...I believe I always am in love, Anita, with an ideal as "she" exists in my mind. Perhaps, someday, I will look up and discover the ideal is a real woman who is standing before me.<br /><br />Yes, Ole Rolvaag was a great Norwegian-American, and it is a shame if he is not read and appreciated in his homeland. He was a fisherman with his father in Norway, came to America in 1896 when he was twenty, worked as a hired farmhand and a lumberjack, among other things, earned a bachelor's degree and, later, a master's degree from St. Olaf College here in Minnesota. He joined the faculty at St. Olaf and taught, but his real talent was as a novelist. One of his books, "Giants in the Earth," in my mind is easily among the ten greatest novels ever written. Incidentally, he was knighted by the king of Norway and his son, Karl, was governor of Minnesota back in the 1950s.<br /><br />I guess I was not too kind with my comment about Norwegians and holidays. I am sorry for that. Lifestyles and government styles between many European countries and the United States have significant differences, and many of us here are more than a little annoyed because some, like Barack Obama, are trying to make the U.S. more like the European model. There probably will be another civil war here before all is said and done. Anyway, I am glad you will have a holiday from work and from the blogs and from ordinary day-to-day life. I wish you happy times on your journey.<br /><br />As for "ex-lovers who writes and writes," Kelly (remember her ??) once told me all a woman has to do to get rid of guys like that is to ignore them and not write back. They will lose interest very quickly.<br /> <br />As for your photographs, you are an excellent photographer. Some people try to be helpful and offer suggestions; others just like to think they are experts and attempt to show off by telling you how to improve your work. Just learn to ignore the "wannabe experts."<br /><br />I am not sure what I will be doing or where I will be when Easter arrives. I have an urge to be religious this year. We shall see ....<br /><br />Again, take care on your trip, Anita .... be good, stay out of mischief and stay safe.Fram Actualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540773153894050197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-21813455941312116732015-03-28T16:18:44.293+01:002015-03-28T16:18:44.293+01:00Muy bueno tu concepto de idealización vs fascinaci...Muy bueno tu concepto de idealización vs fascinación, y es bueno luchar por lo que uno piensa es el bien, saludos.Boris Estebitanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08961516002917595069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8989613902205547683.post-85533237933260436652015-03-28T14:06:13.427+01:002015-03-28T14:06:13.427+01:00Woo hooo!Goodmorning Lazy!
