Certainly one of the greatest protest songs of the Vietnam era--or any era.

Mt. Rainier today. I love the flight between Santa Rosa and Seattle; it's a smallish plane so you're at pretty low level passing all the "ring of fire" mountains. The Santa Rosa airport is like taking off/landing in your own neighborhood.

Jane Austen's Period Drama / Short Film Jane Austen's Period Drama is a short film that is quite literally a *period* piece. A satire about menstruation by Julia Aks & Steve Pinder.

Yeah, that was good; "The Singers," too (you can see it on N'flix). Also very good and in Oscar contention, I loved "Jane Austen's Period Drama": janeaustensperioddrama.com
