sounds like you need to look for some free software online that will play video.  that should do it.

meanwhile - more poetry, please...

Hi Chris: You dind\'t scares me off. I just wanted to shear my thoughts. I know you are not a GOTH, because I know a few and I know what they feel about death. I\'m a person whit a very hard life but I try all the time beeing positive about things and life.
One of my poems about life:
"Sadness and happyness?
What it is?
Is just duallity!
Duallity of just one feeling,
but each part opposite to each other,
but deep in side they are all the same.
Sadness and happyness?
They are two opposite forces of what we know as self-realization.
Feeling one and feeling another?
What is the problem?
The secret is how to balance both and then we acomplish the Big self-realization!"
(sorry about the writing. My english is not very good, and I just transleted this from portuguese).

portuguese!?  cool.  i lived in brasil as a small child.  hardly speak any at all now.

your approach to the happy/sad dichotomy doesn\'t really take depression or other people\'s reality into account... but it\'s a nice approach, none the less.  very upbeat.

Yesterday and today I\'ve been with some hippie friends in the woods near a lake, and we \'ve been playing african drums, sax, austrilian instruments, birimbau(capoeira instrument). voices and so on. It was wonderfull, all connected by the sound, dancing balanced with Mother Nature. And a few of us was doing some capoeira to. I pratice here in Portugal some Capoira fight. I\'m on mother\'s vacation. I have my 2 little daughters spending 2 weeks with grand parents on the north of Portugal. I realy needed this 2 weeks for my self. I even restart to write and painting.

  ah then Ohla commo esta thats it my Portugues Niehboors drilled into me they moved to Florida one had a stroke and was sideways walking around the apartment complex I miss them the rumour was they were here sents this place opened in 1998, don\'t know why they wanted to move to Florida ... No thats Spanish I wrote spanish feneticly HA HA HA what a white person I am, I wish I knew some Portugues , I dig Italian and Manderian but can\'t speak them worth a lick, It was my old art teacher who spoke Japanes er Chinese? in his dream and then he was like cool I can speak this in a dream... Sara I\'m Sorry when I first joined this forum (thanks Travis ) many many posts ago I would bend over backwards to spell things right lucky I found an out dated Websters Dictonairy in the trash but befor that I was nothing but a wacko ( see insert to the left ) if I had a red hat that would look just like me.

Another one of my writings:

Drums are filling the air with they\'re sound.
Bodys are under the Sun, starting to sweating with the hot air and the rhytm.
Men and women,
two energys balenced by the harmony of the rhytms coming from the sounds of the drums,
and we are doing and dancing the rhytm of creation.
My body starts to let the sound of music enter...
All my being starts to  dance,
I feel the vibration of the rhytm flowing into my physic to the non physic.
Colors, shapes, movements are flowing freelly around me...
I see the sorrounding energys, of the wind and the Sun,
of the beings of water, earth, air and fire,
creating such an harmony...
that I\'ve got a glimps of the fifth element,
the perfect and supreme being, the energy of creation,
the source, the Love... what that\'s create and all vivify...
That\'s us, in our perfection!!!

Hi Chris:
Portuguese is a little bit like spanish. What you\'ve wrote in kind of spanish/portuguese, correctly is: "Olá, como estás?" (Hello, how are you?)
The answer is: "estou bem e tu?" (I\'m fine, and you?)
If you want to know more you wiill be free to ask.

  sounded like you sneezed

 :D2nd lesson:
" Bom dia. - Good morning"
" Boa noite - good night"
 "Gosto de tocar guitarra - I like to play the guitar"
 "Alguém lê isto... - anyone read this..."
 "Está calor - It\'s hot"
 "O Sol está a brilhar - The Sun is shining"
 "Estou a ouvir a minha banda favorita -  I\'m hearing my favorite band."
 
Ask and I\'ll translate.
It\'s 34º C and it\'s 3:56 am.

  I am stuck reading The Rum Diarys by Hunter S Thomson...
Anyone read this..

Chris

"stuck?"

he\'s a crazy man.  wonderful but off the plank.

you know there\'s actually a webring devoted to it... Rum Diary i mean.

  webring whats a webring? is it some sort of Loop we like loops! Nah! he wasn\'t all that crazy when he wrote it he was 22 and not yet seeing bats or fish head crazy\'s, I know it would be kinda dangerouse and I\'m probably not going to do it but what if there was a drinking game to go along with this book?
Fantastic reading thou not as sucked throo the gils as his others are...

Chris

less crazy, but really, i do think he is thinking on a slightly different plane.  and i like that about him.  the booze & drugs took him way off into the yonder, but even early on, he had a different way of looking at things.  or so i see it.

the drinking game thing would be a gas.  dangerous, but that sort of is in keeping, yes?

  HST is now 67 and just released a new book called Hey Rube leastways he ain\'t Naked on the backcover like his last book and yeah when I start the game.
rule 1
drink when ever the charecter Kemp has a Rum ( perferably Rum for the game ).
drink when ever they go to Al\'s.
rule 2
listen to Porto Rician music real loudelike or knockoff american music
rule 3
if you you find yer self in a conga line yer winning, but if you fall your trampled yer loseing or you drunky...
If you win go ask Sweep for a hamburger but if you lose have another drink...
I don\'t know, you got something better lets hear it.
