6:27 - Is it lifehouse or lighthouse?
Conversations with the whiteboard could be more lucid, more like a good prose and a window pane? Looked for interpretations of Orwell, and got a handful. What's your interpretation? And finally 3:09 should have said "Yet, fingers romancing the keyboard"
Lifehouse, the band.
And I regret that the whiteboard's out of public bounds for now, too much going on there.
As for Orwell, I don't think I entirely agree with his opinion, though I think it's a wonderful simile. Barnes, in his magnificent essay on Orwell, questions if words can ever be glass, and Wood wonders if the metaphor can hold up in the face of an emotive style of lyricism. Both very valid points, and ones that gain more credence in a world that isn't anymore what it was in 1946 when Orwell first wrote those words.
I can't go on about it here, this is not the place, so will just cut it short. If I were asked to describe it my way, I would probably paraphrase him and say,
"Good prose is like a window."
yay! I enjoyed the carefree chuckles too. :D
I never thought I would know..... enjoyed reading it man....
