Richard Scarry (1919-94)

Richard Scarry (1919-94)

I love Richard Scarry's books. I have all my life. One of the perks of being an aunt has been getting back in touch with Scarry's art, and seeing how much it tickled the kids. Of course, late in life, and posthumously, Scarry has become a huge "thing," thanks to the Nickelodeon BusyTown animated series. I'm strictly a Scarry print fan-- and thanks to my bro's and sister-in-law's TV policy, so are Evan and Fiona.

What i think I love most about Scarry, who was mind-bogglingly prolific (300+ books), was the exuberance and whimsicality of his imagination, and how he was always sneakily (and not-so-sneakily) bringing elements of chaos into his own BusyTown. BusyTown itself was incredibly detailed, with immaculately precise renderings of oddly European half-timber architecture (he lived part of his life in Switzerland), and Scarry seemed to take pleasure in setting up an orderly environment, and gleefully subverting it. BusyTown was populated by an impossible mix of lovingly depicted cats, rabbits, pigs, foxes, bears and hippos, living amicably, if not quietly. All his structures eventually seemed like the framework for his imagination to go wild, drawing plethorae of his wide-eyed anthropomorphic animals in motion in all manner of crazy, fanciful vehicles (e.g. the immortal pickle car), almost inevitably leading to a monstrous pileup of cars, trucks, helicopters, biplanes, pickle, apple and banana cars, with rivers of spilled watermelons, surrounded by frantic bunnies and pigs, and presided over by the harassed Officer Flossie-- and of course, nobody was ever hurt.

Here are some of my favorite Scarry books.

Also, check out this flicker site for a really cool view at some not so subtle changes that have been made over the years to Scarry's work, very interesting, in terms of how things are edited according to the times etc, .. most of them while he was still alive. Again, read the whole bio for more on this. Pretty insightful.

Harold Camping's End of The World 21st of May 2011

The prediction of Harold Camping of what will going to happen today, 21st of May 2011 is now rounding up all over the Internet. People start to talk about it when billboards and radio announcements opened their minds from the possibility of "End of The World." Although for now, we've been following the latest updates straight from respectable news sites and television networks all over the country and the world.

According to CBS recently, Ben Tracy noted that the doomsday could probably happen at any time of this day, month, and even on this year. But nobody can tell the exact time or date. And before we can forget, you can join him in doomsday watch program for more. There are only few of us who are willing to share their thoughts and idea about the other possibilities in this phenomenon but there is no clear evidence or sign that will please the other people to believe, right?

We have no doubt that Harold Camping is really a great man to share his predictions not only for his fellow countryman but also for the rest of us in the world. As we try to loom around recently, we heard a lot of annoying speculations coming not from any world religion but from those people who doesn't have the time to think about it. And guess what, it is good to hear that there are few folks who are also willing to accept the predictions of Mr. Camping.

The 89-year old preacher and radio station owner is brave enough to share his ideology through a Spiritual and Biblical matters. And as the implication, he really open the minds and hearts of thousands and even millions for the possible apocalypse. Remember, the end of the world predictions is not new to some of us and we heard it from other prophecies in Bible and even in written history.

Sad to say, the negative implication of this news really affect a very little part of our economy. Entrepreneurs and businesses can slightly feel the impact but how about those people who are not aware of this? They might continue to live like a normal living thing in this world, right? Our daily choir can remind us to keep on moving no matter of what will going to happen at any time of this day, May 21, 2011.

And before we can forget, catch Harold Camping's interview and other television appearances for more. There might be an unnoticeable earthquake that can remind you in your area but not to the extent of driving you to believe in this prophecy. Try to check some more soon as we continue to bring the other related details and updates from a doomsday watch this evening.
