"Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?"
Most parents of kids under 5 have seen Eric Carle's art accompanying the book by Bill Martin. The Texas Board of Education banned the book, in January 2010, because it thought the book was written by the same Bill Martin who penned the nonchildren's book "Ethical Marxism: The Categorical Imperative of Liberation."


This is why justice should always be executed by government instead of hobbyists. Although government is not free of mistakes (if only), it's more likely to check. :twisted:

News on "The Hobbit" movie

[url:nmmquhah]http://the-hobbit-movie.com/[/url]

Sorry guys L.O.T.R. is something I completely geek out over. So far the animated Hobbit from the 70's leaves a little to be desired. Especially the soundtrack! :twisted:

Now how would they put "The Silmarillion" into film. I vote for first an animated miniseries but that's just me. I think that it would be impossible to use live action and pure CGI just isn't my thing. The visuals are just too much for real life to imitate.

They say that it took five "long years" to make it happen but I would date the beginning of that struggle to Julius Caesar (around 55 B.C.) personally. :wink:

Amazing that the tablets were still intact after 2000 years underwater, also interesting that it took twenty years for them to be properly examined. :?
