I am on the same page with you about where your 'real' education came from. Howard Zinn for the win! (I have a lot of thoughts on grad school too..grr) :0)
Excellent vid! And as my dad would always quote, every day's a school day! There are lessons to be learnt from every experience and every person we meet :) And without a soundtrack life just wouldn't have any beat!
Thanks! Your Dad sounds very wise. His advice obviously worked--you turned out great, kid! I mean, except for the whole hating the Beatles thing. ;) j/k. When you actually grow up in Liverpool, maybe the whole Beatles thing gets annoying. Glad you're still watching! :)
Well it is a medium that can change peoples lives with just the flick of the hand and mind , you are showing someone a new world , a place for their own minds to wonder and grow in . You obviously have a gift and it is heightened by not plastering your mug all over the place . I can see your are exploring the possibilities and I like to encourage that in people as it brings life to life !
JEEEZZZUUSSsssss..Jimmy...you just keep on amazing us with your talent mate...Ive reshot that vid by the way..sending it now...Luvya mate...cheerz and beerz...Pete
This is such a great tag video in many ways! Mainly it is creative, imaginative, literate, skilled technically and on and on! I LOVE your videos and know a tad about you now! 5 tag video stars!
WOW! Thanks so much for such kind words! The fact that you enjoy these videos truly means the world to me! Can't Thank You enough! Hope you like the next one!
"I have come to realize that my real education came from here ..." and with that, ends a fascinating insight into one of the most intriguing people I have stumbled across. It is my pleasure to know you, and your friendship has been an awakening and an education to me all in one. Thank you Jimmy, what a wonderful tag, and what great tagees! ThatBostonChick is going to make it big here :)
Thanks so much, Tam! You know how a song gets stuck in your head? This one has been stuck in my head for years! Thanks for such kind words, and I'm so glad you enjoyed this video!
TIM! What's up, buddy! Hehe--Ya, thanks for sticking with me. I made a new episode before posting this, ya know--so I have been totally lazy lately! Again, sorry I missed you a while back. I'll get a new damn cell, and we'll have to talk again SOON! Hope '08 is starting out OK for you.
Damn good to see you, John! You probably learned more about life in those bars than I ever did. One of those bars wouldn't happen to be the brass rail, would it? ;)
Thanks, Andy! There have been rumors about a Nick Drake biopic for a long time. When I first heard that, I sort of thought Heath Ledger would be the perfect actor for Nick Drake. Now, it's unsettling and eerie to me that they both died under similar circumstances. If you haven't seen it, check out "A Skin Too Few", a documentary about Nick that is here on YouTube. Take Care!
love the haunting mask ladies, especially the end shot! It was poetic, without words... sort of like your stuff, without a face :D Im goin to check me out some JH on the GB channel :D
love ya jimmy. make this a response and Ill aprove it right away. Such a pleasure knowing such a talented fellow such as yourself. Now get your ass to australia so I can buy you a beer :)
Hehe--Not without a pint from you, mate! Did you happen to recognize my "busking spot"? I was right outside the Hippodrome. Do you know if it's still there?
Ya, it does bother me!! Seems like they lost some of their edge after 9/11. I used to love a show called The Connection with Christopher Lydon. The show is off the air now, but luckily, all of the episodes are still on the npr website for free. Thanks for watching! :)
the stranglers golden brown i think from 1980 awsome choice
