Phthalo Moons ~blue

BLUE MOON


It would appear that today's full moon is a Blue moon, being the 2nd full moon in the month of August... But the original definition of a Blue moon is the 3rd full moon in any seasonal quarter, and since our next full moon is on Spet 30 (after the vernal equinox), this 2nd full moon of August is the last full moon of the Summer season... by this definition the next true Blue moon is on August 21, 2013. -and todays full moon has no name of its own.

that's enough to make any moon sing the blues...

IF ...tall

Edith Piaf stood 4 foot 8 inches.
What she lacked in height, she more than made up for in stature; France's most internationally renown chanteuse lived a life that paralleled her tragic ballads.

IF ...teacher

Easily the most fascinating character in the Harry Potter series, Professor Severus Snape taught Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts and along the way, character development and pacing. Alan Rickman's reading of Snape sits along with the classics.

IF ...freeze

He put the freeze on the heads of the other 4 families, he also put the freeze on Sollozzo, McCluskey, Johnny Ola, Hyman Roth, Carlo Rizzi, Sal Tessio and Moe Greene. He even put his own brother on ice. Al Pacino's portrayal of Michael Corleone was tightly wound, frigid and icy.
I know it was you Fredo.

Coffee Mugs

Every line, every shape, and every form has an opposite line, shape or form to balance it. It is not always necessary to show both sides of this visual wall, but regardless of their conspicuousness neither is more important than the other. Arcane truths need to be sought and kept.

IF ...bounce

Shirley Temple bounced on the scene at the age of 3 with a bouncy personality, bouncy songs, bouncy dance steps and bouncy hair. By age 22 the bounce had gone out of her film career, but she bounced back as U.S. ambassador to Ghana and later as U.S. ambassador to Czechoslovakia!
if she wasn't involved in something, she'd be bouncing off the walls one assumes...

Coffee Mugs

Coffee is the fuel which goes in the body which is the engine for the bicycle... if we attach a grinder & brewer to the gears we'd have perpetual motion.
Problem solved!
