Everlast - Graves to Dig

powered by ODEO

I think the hardest part of holding on is lettin it go

I can still see the light at the end of the tunnel shine
through the dark times even when I lose my mind

But it feels like no one in the world is listening
and I can’t ever seem to make the right decisions

I walk around in the same haze
I’m still caught in my same ways
I’m losing time in these strange days
but somehow I always know the right things to say

I don’t know what time it is or whose the one to blame for this
Do what I believe what I can’t see
And how do you know which way the wind blows

Cause I can feel it all around
I’m lost between the sound
And just when I think I know, there she goes Read more

Clerks 2: Silent Bob is Forever Silent?

Hey anyone know where I can get some Clerks 2 Ringtones or Jay and SIlent Bob ringtones?

Writer/director Kevin Smith is currently in production on the sequel to the indie cult smash hit film Clerks. As you may know, he’s been documenting the whole experience with video diaries (two a week actually). Well this week’s videos hit that web only to have fanboys shocked to discover a storyboarded sequence featuring the funeral for beloved View Askew character Silent Bob. Will Silent Bob die in Clerks 2?

According to fans, a Silent Bob statue appears in the storyboards engraved with “FOREVER SILENT“. Within a few hours, the video in question entitled “The Boards,” was mysteriously removed from the website (Clerks2.com).

Also revealed in the video were storyboards for a space battle sequence: “Yeah, yeah, like in Battlestar Galactica.” So could this whole video be a joke by funny man Smith? Or could these storyboards be part of a big budget dream sequence? Or will Silent Bob really bite the big one? And if not, why was the video removed from the website?

I guess we’ll have to wait to find out..

A Sketch found could be a da Vinci

A Tiny red chalk sketch, carried to Australia in a handbag and hung in a Perth house for generations, is being studied as a possible work of 15th Century Italian Renaissance genius, Leonardo da Vinci
If authenticated, the 22cm by 12cm unsigned sketch of an old man’s face could be worth millions, and would instantly become one of the art world’s most significant recent finds.

The sketch came to the attention of Perth art dealer Paul Swain last week, when it was referred to him by the Art Gallery of Western Australia.

On first sight he believed it could be the work of da Vinci.

Mr Swain, who runs Perth’s Greenhill Gallery, is now travelling to the UK to consult experts at the Tate Gallery.

He then intends to have the paper carbon dated to see if it correlates with a date of around 1450, the time the Italian Master may have drawn it.
