Will they ever run out of concept ideas for music videos? Probably not. Happiness Has A Hole / Marie Louise from Michael Fragstein on Vimeo.
Church Chat
Time is in short supply today, unfortunately. But that doesn’t mean we can’t spare a few moments of our precious time for dear old Darwin. I wish I had more artistic talent. If I could make my living as a painter, I would feel like I had achieved nirvana. Or forget the money altogether. If I never sold a single …
On Vacation

We salute the Olympics!
The thrill or victory. And the agony of defeat.
World Cancer Day
Let’s open up a time capsule from 1994. I’ve been saving this short film I saw recently for today, World Cancer Day. It’s warm and beautiful and heartbreaking all at once.
