THE WAY TO SUCCEED-AND THE WAY TO SUCK EGGS!
69 {Kappa-Epsilon-Phi-Alpha-Lambda-Eta Xi-Theta} This is the Holy Hexagram. Plunge from the height, O God, and interlock with Man! Plunge from the height, O Man, and interlock with Beast!

“There was never a time when the world began, because it goes round and round like a circle, and there is no place on a circle where it begins. Look at my watch, which tells the time; it goes round, and so the world repeats itself again and again. But just as the hour-hand of the watch goes up to twelve and down to six, so, too, there is day and night,waking and sleeping, living and dying,...

– Found here. What would you do? I don’t think I could kill the lone man if it came to it. I’d ask them if they wanted to sacrifice themselves, in the hope they were honourable enough. There are more problems of a similar nature here. They go by the amusing name of “trolley...

This is a great idea and a brilliant use of youtube videos. Take a look! I thought I’d take a crack at this, and so I gathered my own collection of the sounds of nature and instruments that nature plays. I came across this again and I had to put it in. This an amazing magnetic art sculpture!
