              @seekjustice I found this story amusing, and thought you might too, so here it is!

              When I was young my father said to me:
              “Knowledge is Power….Francis Bacon”
              I understood it as “Knowledge is power, France is Bacon”.
              For more than a decade I wondered over the meaning of the second part and what was the surreal linkage between the two? If I said the quote to someone, “Knowledge is power, France is Bacon” they nodded knowingly. Or someone might say, “Knowledge is power” and I’d finish the quote “France is Bacon” and they wouldn’t look at me like I’d said something very odd but thoughtfully agree. I did ask a teacher what did “Knowledge is power, France is bacon” mean and got a full 10 minute explanation of the Knowledge is power bit but nothing on “France is bacon”. When I prompted further explanation by saying “France is Bacon?” in a questioning tone I just got a “yes”. at 12 I didn’t have the confidence to press it further. I just accepted it as something I’d never understand.
              It wasn’t until years later I saw it written down that the penny dropped.

              😀

                    I’m not sure if you could find it in America, but I’m currently watching an old tv show called The River Kings. I’m quite enjoying it so far, its clean (so far). The best way I can think to describe it is as a sort of Australian Little House on the Prairie but not as annoying and historically inaccurate and also set on a paddlesteamer.

                    It just reminded me of the sort of things you like watching and I thought you might like the accents 😉

                        I’m here, supposedly editing but really just playing with my dog and watching YouTube.

                        By the way, have you seen/do you like Frozen? If you do, I have something really cool to show you. I don’t particularly like Frozen, but I’m honestly obsessed with this.

                          Welcome. 🙂 Editing can be fun, but playing with your dog and watching youtube is great too. 😉

                          I haven’t seen Frozen. Honestly, it was SO POPULAR over here that I feel like I know enough about it, lol. 😛 But I’d love to see what you’re so excited about. 😉

                            It’s especially fun when you try to do them all at once. Do you have any dogs?

                            Okay, here’s the link. It’s from the Broadway version of Frozen, it’s a super annoying song, with a super annoying crowd in the background, but as a stage geek, I greatly admire the spectacle of it all. I think I’ve lost count of the amount of times my sister and I have gawked at it, despite neither of us liking the song 😛

                              Sadly, I do not. 🙁 I hope to one day. What breed is your dog? Do you have more than one?

                              When you mentioned “song” I knew exactly which on you were talking about before even watching the video! 😀 It’s like the only Frozen song I’ve ever heard; with little girls singing it left and right and the radio blaring it…you’d think it was the only song in Frozen.

                              But, it is fun to watch the stage versions of things. 🙂 It’s really cool to see how they add different effects with the lights and props and everything.

                                He’s a Labrador named Jack 😀 And sadly, we only have one.

                                It’s intensely annoying, isn’t it? Thankfully, the Broadway version added quite a lot of new songs which are slightly less irritating.

                                And yes, watching stage versions are always really cool. I love watching those more fantasy musicals on stage too, since the ones I like tend to be very minimalistic in terms of props and effects needed, but the fantasy ones are often very cool.

                                  Aw, labradors are cute. 🙂 <3

                                  Do you act in plays? I thought you had mentioned that in the past maybe…

                                  So this editing you’re doing…would that be SFI? *fangirl squeal*
