when i was four years old they tried to test my i.q. they showed me a picture of 3 oranges and a pear they said, which one is different? it does not belong they taught me different is wrong but when i was 13 years old i woke up one morning thighs covered in blood like a war like a warning that i live in a breakable takeable body an ever increasingly valuable body that a woman had come in the night to replace me deface me see, my body is borrowed yeah, i got it on loan for the time in between my mom and some maggots i don't need anyone to hold me i can hold my own i got highways for stretchmarks see where i've grown i sing sometimes like my life is at stake 'cause you're only as loud as the noises you make i'm learning to laugh as hard as i can listen 'cause silence is violence in women and poor people if more people were screaming then i could relax but a good brain ain't diddley if you don't have the facts we live in a breakable takeable world an ever available possible world and we can make music like we can make do genius is in a back beat backseat to nothing if you're dancing especially something stupid like i.q. for every lie i unlearn i learn something new i sing sometimes for the war that i fight 'cause every tool is a weapon - if you hold it right.
If a picture's worth a Thousand words, then I'm a Millionair~
Today I wanted to post some pictures of my surrounding area, and just how awesome/beautiful it *really* is. I will start with my area, then a few pictures from Ghost Town in the Sky, and move on to some from Cherokee. Ending up at The Biltmore House., so enjoy MY views.

First of all, I hope everyone had a great and safe 4th of July. Since this is Sunday, and I was unable to post last evening, I've decided to post a video, and below PLEASE read, as I have some words, that perhaps might *sink* in. Maybe although in my minds eye, probably will swoop over somes head.

So as above, is a video that should (but won't) *stop* the attacking on hillbillies and rednecks, as Shadow likes to refer to himself.
So below, is a picture that is used in reference to us, for apparently living in the South. Which I might add, are several here on Blogstream. I really like the picture, as it does look like some people who were *born* and raised in ALL the towns in the South, and I must add we've lived here on and off, but in total, it's been 13 years, and don't have any plans to leave the *beautiful* mountains. So here's the picture, that, I guess, is suppose to hurt our feelings in which ever way it was tended. Sorry about your luck, cuz the South, especially, is SO beautiful in ALL 4 seasons.
Now I would like to post some really great blogs, for when some are not having to defend themselves, have very informative, thought provoking, words of wisdom, as well as news stories that are interesting to read. This is not only for those who post videos on Fridays and Saturdays, but great posts ALL through the week.
