Harry Freakin’ Potter

Sunday 8 August 2010 - Filed under Life

I was perusing my Google reader this morning while i was drinking my fantastically delicious cup of coffee and I found something amazing.

Ling linked something the other day.

Something like no other.

Can it be?

Really?

Yes….

Yes, it was.

A Very Potter Sequel.

Oh man, oh man.

I’m only on Part 3 so far, but I had to stop and blog.  Because it’s that awesome.  Can’t believe I didn’t come across this when I was checking out Wizard Rock!

So now I’m crocheting and watching this amazing performance while I wait for joules to call me or message me because we’re supposed to be hanging out, but her phone sucks and doesn’t ring sometimes and she hasn’t called me and she’s a big poo head.  But that’s beside the point, because it’s Harry Freakin’ Potter!

The Lost Pyramids of Caral

Sunday 1 August 2010 - Filed under Life

Just watched the Most interesting documentary on one of the oldest known civilizations, The Lost Pyramids of Caral.

The magnificent ancient city of pyramids at Caral in Peru hit the headlines in 2001. The site is a thousand years older than the earliest known civilisation in the Americas and, at 2,627 BC, is as old as the pyramids of Egypt. Many now believe it is the fabled missing link of archaeology – a ‘mother city’. If so, then these extraordinary findings could finally answer one of the great questions of archaeology: why did humans become civilised? A lot has been discussed since this was put out. From Seattle Times (December 23, 2004): “A Peruvian site previously reported as the oldest city in the Americas actually is a much larger complex of as many as 20 cities with huge pyramids and sunken plazas sprawled over three river valleys, researchers report.” Construction began in 3000 B.C (300-400 years before the people of Kemet/Egypt began the Pyramid of Djoser). These cities flourished peacefully for more than 1,200 years.

No signs of warfare… no signs of sacrifice. Just people, working and living peacefully.
