We're all mad here!

Seriously folks, why is a raven like a writing desk? I’d really like to know! I’ve exhausted countless hours of my life trying to answer this riddle. Also, what kind/color is this writing desk? (Repeat after me: Vague!)If it were painted black that that could solve everything. If the owner liked using quills, there could be an answer somewhere in that. WHY? Does anybody have an answer?

…I think I’ve gone round the twist!

Anywho, Regardless of whether you find Lewis Carroll charming and delightful or tedious and outdated. (I tend toward the latter; my apologies to Mr. Carroll’s fans.) OR whether or not you enjoyed Tim Berton’s additions to this Victorian fairytale… The Almost Alice album is wondrous, weird, and completely wonderful!

Almost Alice is a multi genre collaborative album with one very special focal point… Alice! Alice in Wonderland is one of those threads that hold all of society together. (And it’s probably a golden thread, like Alice’s hair.) So, no wonder so many artists wanted to be a part of this project. Personal Opinion: I give it two thumbs up!

The following is one of my very favorite tracks!

"What matters it how far we go?"
His scaly friend replied,
"There is another shore, you know,
Upon the other side.
The further off from England
The nearer is to France -
Then turn not pale, beloved snail,
But come and join the dance.
Will you, won't you, will you,
Won't you, will you join the dance?

Track 13 - The Lobster Quadrille - Franz Ferdinand


Curiouser and curiouser!

Enjoy the weekend! :D
