So approximately April 1997 I played this same song on a Lousiville High School Stage for Star Search 1997. It garnered second place. I don't know how ... it is pretty bad.

The library hosts photography and small works on canvas. The Eighteen Lumber truck hosts the International Bumper Sticker Show. The Stone Museum hosted a concrete fish brick show around a small mirror pond for a number of years until recently. Now the fish bricks have moved to the art yard and a few are on the mailbox post out front. The flying beetle, another project with simple beginnings, began as a coloring project among several local schools and random others. It can be seen in the driveway at the ArtYard, a place of simple beginnings for long range, risky creative projects which go off in many directions. In this video is also what remains of the HUBCAP show, almost 300 hubcaps painted and glued, etc, dents and rust a plus, which was also at the Stone Museum, up high for a number of years. Maintaining it was allot of climbing. Now it is down low at a secret location in East Brunswick. The merger of two PVC sculpture shows has remnants both in front of the ArtYard and in front of the small building at Eighteen Lumber Company and more in the student lounge at the University of Medicine and Dentistry - Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Piscataway, NJ. The EYE on 18! A slice of a tree which turned out to resemble an eye socket. Sculptor Bernard Axelrod further embellished it with nails, painted cat's eye yellow. It is firmly anchored to the outside wall, high up and under plexi glass at Eighteen Lumber Company. The EYE on 18! The EYE is a heavy piece. It was first spotted in a dark corner of Bernie's basement. Why, Bernie, is such a beautiful piece down here in a dark corner of your basement? "I can't pick it up anymore"..was the response. We will heft it up for you Bernie..and we did..with young, hardy men and a lift at 18 Lumber, up it went. EYE on 18, an optical illusion..a sculptural, digital piece..a forager of things to come. Bernie is deceased now but his EYE looks out over route 18 ...down the road a pace from the impending Golden Triangle! That Golden Triangle reminds me of Lincoln Center's restaurant area a few years back. The dining area also had triangles on the surrounding walls...women's triangular bikini briefs..done in a myriad of colors. A community creates together year round. The last portion of the video is of the East Brunswick Visual Art Celebration where the 18 Lumber Company Truck has made an appearance for its second year. It is a good place, the local pond for many kinds of creative efforts to come together. One magic day out of 367 other magic days in which humanity thrives and creates willy nilly without thought of sales but for the pure fun of it. Thanks to the East Brunswick Department of Recreation and also the Art Commission for their hearty efforts to make a great day. A great big Thank you to Michael Lewin for his help as video consultant for this video and to all those who make bare walls and feasible spaces available to create with imagination.

COLES COUNTY - 60 to 70 mile an hour winds tore through Mattoon and Charleston Friday night. People are already surveying damage and cleaning up the mess. The storm came up fast on Kirschner Lumber in Mattoon. "I looked out the window and part of our building was flying over the top of our existing building,": says co-owner Alan Lord. "I knew we had some problems outside." Their roof flew on to the highway forcing drivers to detour. "We had help pulling product and debris off the road," says Lord, "so we're just trying to pick up the pieces right now." A nearby billboard is also in pieces. The sign was torn off. Half crashed to the ground. The other half of the billboard flew across highway 45 and ended up behind a row of SUVs at Pilson Auto Center. Banged up cars and broken glass scatter the car lot now. Over in Charleston, power lines are down. Sheds are ripped apart and limbs have cracked off trees. One tree split in half and fell on a home. "Half the tree fell on the house," says renter Brad Bonewitz. "The other fell on the garage." It happened while the family was watching a funnel cloud up above. "It wasn't coming down," says Bonewitz. "It was just coming about midway down. At about that time, the house shook and fell on the back of the garage. I'm just glad no one was hurt." Power is out for parts of Coles County yet. -- WCIA 3

If Walter T. Curtis had his way 66 years ago, the rough-sawed lumber building at the end of Central Avenue would probably be long abandoned, or knocked down. "He wanted to build a dance hall," Curtis' daughter, Bernice Rooks, says. "But Mama wouldn't okay it. He wanted beer and everything." What sprang up in the compromise was a roller-skating rink. Curtis sawed the timber himself and had the place built in the fall of 1939. Large windows with heavy shutters and no screens lined the pine walls. An ancient Michigan cash register held money behind the counter. A tin roof provided cover in the thick stand of oaks, just steps from the banks of the Hillsborough River, between Plant City and Zephyrhills. Children, teenagers and adults glided around the floor, popular music floating through the air. That was Crystal Springs Roller Rink then, and now. "There ain't nothin' new around here much," says Truman Rooks, the 74-year-old proprietor, Curtis' son-in-law and Bernice's husband. Mr. Rooks, as he is called by young and old who cross the threshold, is the soul of this place now. A living symbol of Old Florida, he paces around quietly, a ball cap perched high on his balding head. He speaks with purpose, using his gravelly voice to great effect. Over the crackling public address system, Mr. Rooks scolds kids when they skate too fast or huddle too closely in the dark corners. His words are indecipherable in the din, but offenders know to quickly shape up. His other weapon is an oversized flashlight of shiny silver, the most modern-looking thing in the building. He shines it on unruly skaters. "It's like a highway patrol," Rooks says with a grin. "I done got 'em clocked." But for all his toughness with the kids, they are the reason he turns on the lights and the music for two hours every Friday and Saturday night. He pats them on the head and knows their names - and their parents' names. He's not a cozy Santa Claus figure, just a man who has been in one place long enough to know its people. "These kids around here ain't got a lot of money," Rooks says. "I keep it open for them to have somewhere to go." In quiet Crystal Springs, there are plenty of churches and shady places to sit and look at the river. But no movie theaters, no malls. Its only other recreation landmark is closed to the public: The springs where people swam and picnicked for generations is the source of Zephyrhills Natural Spring Water and site of a private nature preserve. Walter Curtis ran the springs for years. It's where Truman and Bernice first met, in 1947. Curtis had a dream of owning the springs - and even acquired the $8,000 to buy it - but the deal never came together and he turned his attention to other pursuits. When the rink opened, the cost to skate was 35 cents. Now the price is up to $3. You can bring your own skates - inline or otherwise - or you can use a pair of the soft suede skates with orange wheels kept in every size on the shelves. Either way, it's $3. "One little girl didn't have but $2.80," Rooks confides. "We let her in." Sodas and candy bars are 75 cents. Throughout the night, kids roll up to the weathered counter, crashing into it with a thud, and slap down a dollar or three quarters and blurt their orders. "Sunkist!" "Butterfinger!" Rooks or his daughter takes the money. The old brass register is still there, but the drawer just sits open, the coins held in change purses. Every transaction is recorded on a white legal pad. Out on the rink - smooth as glass, made of Tennessee maple - 30 or 40 kids whiz by again and again. The little, wobbly ones cling to a rope strung through the middle of the room. The older ones stick to the outside lanes, trying to achieve speed records on inline skates. Mostly country music blares through the speakers, because that's what Mr. Rooks likes. The CDs have taken the place of waltzes played on 78-rpm records. In the parking lot there might not be a single car. Parents drop off their kids, taking advantage of the inexpensive babysitting. No one loiters. Mr. Rooks won't have it. He peers out the open window every few minutes, looking something like a cattle farmer searching for wanderers. "I don't allow nobody in the parking lot," he says. "They're supposed to be inside." Simply put, if they come, they come to skate. "That's right," Rooks says, winking. "That's right." Like her mother before her, Megan Ames comes to the rink just about every weekend. She brings her inline skates and socializes with friends. She wishes she could hear pop music instead of so much country, but that's her only complaint. Even at 12, she thinks the $3 admission is a good deal. "It's a good dating place and a good hangout place," she says.

A reading of an adapted version of Gerard Nolst Trenité's "The Chaos" (1922). Dearest creature in Creation, Studying English pronunciation, I will teach you in my verse Sounds like corpse, corps, horse and worse. It will keep you, Susy, busy, Make your head with heat grow dizzy; Tear in eye your dress you'll tear, So shall I! Oh, hear my prayer, Pray, console your loving poet, Make my coat look new, dear, sew it! Just compare heart, beard and heard, Dies and diet, Lord and word, Sword and sward, retain and Britain, (Mind the latter, how it's written); Made has not the sound of bade; Say - said, pay - paid, laid, but plaid. Now I surely will not plague you With such words as vague and ague, But be careful how you speak, Say break, steak, but bleak and streak, Previous, precious, fuschia, via; Pipe, snipe, recipe and choir, Cloven, oven; how and low; Script, receipt; shoe, poem, toe. Hear me say, devoid of trickery: Daughter, laughter and Terpsichore, Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles; Exiles, similes, reviles; Wholly, holly; signal, signing; Thames, examining, combining; Scholar, vicar and cigar, Solar, mica, war and far. From "desire" desirable - admirable from "admire"; Lumber, plumber; bier, but brier; Chatham, brougham; renown, but known, Knowledge, done, but gone and tone, One, anernone; Balmoral; Kitchen, lichen; laundry,. laurel, Gertrude, German; wind and mind; Scene, Melpomene; mankind; Tortoise, turquoise, chamois-leather, Reading, Reading, heathen, heather. This phonetic labyrinth Gives moss, gross, brook, brooch, ninth, plinth. Billet does not sound like ballet; Bouquet, wallet, mallet, chalet. Blood and flood are not like food, Nor is mould like should or would. Banquet is not nearly parquet, Which is said to rime with "khaki". Viscous, viscount; load and broad; Froward, to forward, to reward. And your pronunciation's O.K., When you say correctly:: croquet; Rounded, wounded; grieve and sieve; Friend and fiend; alive and live; Liberty, library; heave and heaven; Rachel, ache, moustache, eleven. We say hallowed, but allowed; People, leopard; towed, but vowed. Mark the difference, moreover, Between mover, plover, Dover, Leeches, breeches; wise, precise; Chalice, but police and lice.' Camel, constable, unstable; Principle, disciple; label; Portal, penal and canal; Wait, surmise, plait, promise, pal. Suit, suite, ruin; circuit, conduit Rime with "shirk it" and "beyond it". But it is not hard to tell, Why it's pall, mall, but Pall Mall. Muscle, muscular; gaol; iron; Timber, climber, bullion, lion; Worm and storm; chaise, chaos, chair; Senator, spectator, mayor. Ivy, privy; famous. Clamour And enamour rime with "hammer". Pussy, hussy and possess, Desert, but dessert, address. Golf, wolf; countenance; lieutenants Hoist, in lieu of flags, left pennants.
