Imaginadium: Challenging 'It's not as good as the book'

Imaginadium: Challenging 'It's not as good as the book':

We’ve all had Gatsby fever for months. It seems eons since another film has been so highly anticipated, making the news that Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby may not be so great all the more disappointing. Adapting a novel so dearly loved by so many is a dangerous sport. Walter Salles’ recent…

“In a well-known 1929 letter to Ernest Hemingway, he described himself as an “old whore” whom the Post now paid a premium “$4,000. a screw” because “she’s mastered the 40 positions [when] in her youth one was enough.” For Fitzgerald, the short story was a means to an end: it allowed him to finance his novel writing, which he considered the preeminent art form. Yet as his graphic metaphor suggests, he also resented the story market for enticing him to prostitute his talent. To command courtesan prices, he had to know how to his please his audience – and that meant recycling familiar themes, employing stock characters and scenarios, and tugging the heartstrings.”

Zeit Magazin (Germany)

This is fun!
Cause the final of the Champions League is between two German teams (great achievement!) Zeit Magazin brings a full red cover of Bayern Munich (Go Robben!) and Borussia Dortmund in yellow.
Page 4 and 5 is all green with the line:
“Danke für den schonnen Fußball. Wir sehen uns im Finale”
(Thank you for the beautiful soccer. We see ourselves in the final)

Small note, yeah out of my heart: oooh boy do i desire that Champions League again with only team a country, the TRUE champion. Much better than 6 teams out of UK, Spain, Italy and Germany. Yeah heavily dissapointed here, tired of seeing the same teams every year and not fair to the smaller countries.

Father and Son

In the spirit of First Fish, here is a look at the other end of the spectrum. For someone who grew up immersed in this sport, this brings a tear to my eye knowing that my mentor and life-long fishing partner, my father, will one day travel this same path. William, what a fantastic tribute. Thank you for sharing.
