My Cat's Crazy Outburst of Hysterical Fear

Helllo!
This is very random, but I will tell you this any way. So, today I was hanging outside, gardening with my mum and walking around on the deck. My cat was there too, and we were all standing together. Then a fly lands on the pot right next to my cat, and he jumps into the air about five feet high, runs in circles and then bolts down the stairs and through the door with his tail all puffy.
So ya it was really funny....

Martha Graham




I think you people would find it interesting to know that today is Martha Graham's 117th birthday! You probably already saw the google animation, but I thought you might want to know some more about her:

Martha Graham was a modern dancer and choreographer, and if you've never heard of her--her impact on dance is comparatively the same as Picasso's on the visual arts. She danced and taught people to dance for over 70 years. She accomplished things such as being the first dancer ever to perform at the White House, and winning the highest possible USA civilian award--the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Among her other awards she also received the Key to the City of Paris, and the Japanese Imperial Order of the Precious Crown. In 1936, she accomplished her most famed production, "Chronicle." She was also famous for quotations people have taken from her, such as this one, which she said to Agnes de Mille after her musical Oklahoma! came out, 'There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. ... No artist is pleased. [There is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."

She was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania in 1894 and died when she was 96 in 1991, saying: "I have spent all my life with dance and being a dancer. It's permitting life to use you in a very intense way. Sometimes it is not pleasant. Sometimes it is fearful. But nevertheless it is inevitable."


I'm not actually a dancer or anything but I thought her story was very interesting!

Bob Marley



Ahhhhh! Love him! His songs are so cool! Here are some of my favorites (with links)!

Three Little Birds - Link

Buffalo Solider - Link

One Love - Link

Redemption Song - Link

Waiting in Vain - Link

Some information about him:

Bob Marley was born on Feb. 6, 1945 and died on May 11, 1981. He was a Jamaican reggae singer, who sung about social issues in his homeland. He was half black and half white, and his dad died when he was ten. He smoked weed and he belonged to the Rastafari movement (a religion that was a key element in reggae music.) He had twelve children, three with his wife Rita, two adopted from Rita's previous relationships and seven more with seven other women. He died of cancer when it spread through his body. He was on his way to his home, Jamaica , but he died in Miami. He died with his son Ziggy at age 36. His final words to Ziggy were "Money can't buy life."

I personally think he is very inspiring and that you should be constantly listening to him.

P.S. Iris named her cat after him!!!
