The Old Tin Shed

Have been playing around with some images and making A3 posters for my wall, thought I would share a couple with you.  Its best to click and full size these... blogger does not like it when I make them extra large it does not fit on the template properly   Part of Charlie Chaplin s Speech in the movie The Dictator

Have been hanging on to these video's for quite a while now.  Its in summary about how I feel about the world and my place in it.  There are some incredibly inspirational speeches below, if you have the time they are worth a listen An amazing speech, I wonder if in the real world these days anyone would have the balls to stand up and say the same thing for real.  Because I think its those things he talks about that have us lost on our way. An old speech before mobile phones before drones, and before the internet, yet truer now than any other time in history.  An amazing speech, Another truely amazing speach, I think it tells us a lot about ourselves and our destiny in the world.  He has gone down as one of the greatest leaders of all time and its brilliance like this speach that made it that way.  I will however quote the following; " You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of m...

You know sometimes it doesnt matter how many DVD's you have, how many digital movies on the NAS or how many hundreds of TV chanels, there is just nothing worth watching. Hence my delima today.  I just sat here and watch the first 5 minutes of 4 different films.  I could study I suppose but not in the mood for that.  Was thinking about washing the car shortly that should give me something to do in the immediate future. Not sure why I am like that today.  I could realistically replace the rear brakes on my car but again that would require effort.  What I really feel like doing is going to Supercheap Auto and having a look around, been a while since I have done that. But its now to late in the day for that.  Will make a dinner shake shortly I suppose and sit a dumb out to Cops since I have every episode ever made. I find I tend to get like this a bit when dieting, you see normally I would stuff myself with something while watching TV or a movie now I don...

Well if you have been living under a rock you wouldn't know that Tony Abbot and the LNP won today's federal election.  Pretty much as far as gay rights and technology go, this is the end of the road for at least a decade. I'm not surprised about the win but disappointing that people couldn't see they were asking for issues.  Anyway the thought of being somewhere other than this country cross my mind again. Disappointing and feel sorry for Kevin Rudd he was given a basket case and not enough time to fix it

Hi all, i know its been a couple weeks since I last posted.  But have found it hard to put into words what I have been feeling and how my outlook is changing. I think I might have mentioned a few times here that I find decaying things beautify, particularly buildings and factories.  There are so many great photos out there.  For a while now I have been wondering why I was so fascinated. I have come to the following conclusions.  Firstly a decayed building is no longer fit for what it was intended.  Its broken.  Yet through this decay it remains in tact but in a different way.  In most cases some work would bring them back to working condition.  The beauty lays not in what was, but in what is.  A place with no future just slow and painful destruction by mother nature. This I identify with because my temple my mind is in a state of decay.  No longer what it was, unable to work the way it was intended.  Yet I still have it. ...
