The Vienna Vegetable Orchestra

[A video of "The Vienna Vegetarian Orchestra," where all the instruments being played are hand-made from vegetables (and vegan!).  A lucky find for my 200th blog post... 1st half shows them making their raw devices, 2nd half is acoustic performance.  Listen, watch, enjoy, and go vegan!]

Peace Train

Apologies about not having posted for near three weeks... between digging beds for plants and taking on an expedite interactive multimedia (PowerPoint, 3d animations, logo, business card, website) project, I've had time for anything else but sleep.  Project heavy-lifting finished this afternoon.  It's now that wonderful moment that, after a flurry of physical/mental activity for weeks, I have some time to myself and I get reflective... and in pondering the world situation from a vegan standpoint started getting upset.. "Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is... Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss?"  Cat Steven's classic "Peace Train" rang in my brain.  Above is the Cat at his prime doing this amazing song, and a link to an wonderful performance of the same song some 30 or so years later at the Nobel Awards lin 2006.  Enjoy,.. work hard, play harder, be an example, have faith...
