Amused to death
















'Doctor Doctor what is wrong with me
This supermarket life is getting long
What is the heart life of a colour TV
What is the shelf life of a teenage queen
Ooh western woman
Ooh western girl
News hound sniffs the air
When Jessica Hahn goes down
He latches on to that symbol of detachment
Attracted by the peeling away of feeling
The celebrity of the abused shell the belle
Ooh western woman
Ooh western girl
And the children of Melrose
Strut their stuff
Is absolute zero cold enough
And out in the valley warm and clean
The little ones sit by their TV screens
No thoughts to think
No tears to cry
All sucked dry
Down to the very last breath
Bartender what is wrong with me?
Why am I so out of breath?
The captain said excuse me ma'am
This species has amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
Amused itself to death
We watched the tragedy unfold
We did as we were told
We bought and sold
It was the greatest show on earth
But then it was over
We ohhed and aahed
We drove our racing cars
We ate our last few jars of caviar
And somewhere out there in the stars
A keen-eyed look-out
Spied a flickering light
Our last hurrah
Our last hurrah
And when they found our shadows
Grouped around the TV sets
They ran down every lead
They repeated every test
They checked out all the data on their lists
And then the alien anthropologists
Admitted they were still perplexed
But on eliminating every other reason
For our sad demise
They logged the explanation left
This species has amused itself to death
No tears to cry, no feelings left
This species has amused itself to death
(switch channels)
And that always sort of worried me. And having seen him, and his name in the register - as you know in the memorials there's a little safe, there's a register in there with every name - and seeing his name and his name on the memorial; it sort of lightened my...heart, if you like."
[woman:] "When was it that you saw his name on the memorial?"
[Alf:] "Ah, when I was eighty-seven, that would be the year, ninete...eighty-four, nineteen eighty-four."
Amused to Death is a concept album, and the third studio album by former Pink Floyd bassist/vocalist Roger Waters. It was released in 1992

Sun Flower Story














...sunt vânzătorul
de speranţe -
menirea mea este să lupt
pentru lumea galbenă
a lui van Gogh...
....sunt vânzătorul
de floarea soarelui -
menirea mea este să lupt
pentru visul galben
al lui Vincent...
....sunt măscăriciul
care-şi roteşte sufletul -
menirea mea este să lupt
pentru sufletul galben,
pictat de Vincent van Gogh!

The Clay Castle - Castelul de lut Valea Zânelor
















La nici 50 de km de Sibiu, la Porumbacu de Sus, in Valea Zanelor, gasim Castelul de Lut desprins parca din povestile fratilor Grimm: in mijlocul muntilor, pe malul unui rau, inconjurat de vegetatie. Turistii vin pana aici doar ca sa-l vada si sa faca fotografii.


A childhood dream came true for Răzvan Vasile! The fairytale castle is today a real one, which, he hopes his son will enjoy with family and friends. It was not easy to raise it up, but the determination that he had, helped him to carry out a project that would have seemed impossible to many.  
"I wanted it to be a house from fairytales, because we have a little boy of seven years old and I traveled the country in various hostels. I wanted this to be something else, "said Razvan Vasile.
The castle is located 40 km from Sibiu, in the Fairies’ Valley and it will become a pension. It has ten rooms and a footprint of 320 square meters. It was built by craftsmen and workers of Maramures.
The foundation is made of concrete and stones, the structure is wood and the walls are built of cob (log of olid and then covered with cob), a mixture of earth, water, straw, clay and sand. The exterior walls are 60 cm thick and the interior walls have a thickness of 45 cm.

"The exterior plastering is of lime and sand and the towers are of river stone, built with lime and sand," explained Razvan Vasile, for casenaturale.org. Everything is made with natural materials, and the windows and doors are different, each room having its own separate entrance.
