Frank and Eddie - you have truly outdone yourselves this time! What an amazing film. Thank you, thank you.
absolutely haunting! Good job, both of you! Only 65 more days and a new Roosevelt will lead us out of this valley!
the wind carries the seeds of life.
we will breathe and create our new home.
the fire will warm us
…and destroy us.
such is necessary in nature.
this time is ours to hold,
we must cherish our will,
our ability,
our desire to reason.
i ask:
what are unreasonable consequences
in the reality of truth?
when will history teach us
never to trust ignorance
and greed?
…believe.
Its going to be a whole lot worse that Depression.
