And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Why disturbing. Reminds me of a Frank Loyd Wright building that the people who worked there loved. The design made it look like you were working underwater, under big lilypads.
I designed a restaurant in FL named Bahama Breeze that had fake palm tree trunks as columns and the ceiling was faux painted to look like sky with the tops of palm trees blowing in the wind. Trippy. People have been known to walk in there and see the palm trunks, look up and see the fronds, and lose their balance and stumble. And that was BEFORE they had a few rumrunner drinks.

ReplyDeletePics of the kids snapped up while the parents tried to pull them free would be priceless.
