    I love Dali's paintings. Pity it's not bigger, but I think you can't do that here. The little poem above the painting is yours, I believe, and I love its positive outlook on life.

    So: 9/10
    O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
    wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
    sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
    und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.


    Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797 - 1843) (see avatar) Der Knabe im Moor/The Lad in the Moor

    Actually, the poem is lyrics from a favourite song of mine, called WIsh You Were Here by Incubus. I love the Dali as well.

    I wish I could rate yours, but I have not a clue what it means
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    It's about a boy who ventures into the eerie moor, seeing ghosts everywhere. I've been trying to find a translation but there doesn't seem to be any. And it seems my sense of perfection keeps me from adding my own translation ...

    It gets 10/10 just for having a couple umlauts (sp?) in it, which I think is by far the coolest punctuation mark ever!

    10/10 for the best song EVER! Not sure what the picture is, but it looks cool.

    I dream of a better world where chickens can cross the road without their motives being questioned...

    Ethel Mertz: Gee, this high altitude sure gives me an appetite.
    Fred Mertz: What's your excuse at sea level?

    Pitiful creatur of darkness,
    What kind of world have you known?
    God give me courage to guide me,
    You are not alone.

    "The time has come," the Walrus said,
    "To talk of many things:
    Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
    Of cabbages--and kings--
    And why the sea is boiling hot--
    And whether pigs have wings."
