Happy Birthday, George! 🥳🎂

[nade2308]

On Friday, we've had our third year anniversary of our Monte Walsh watch. This movie, that at first was just me needing to see Tom and George in something together, became something more as time went by. Something we are always going back to, at least once every month, a new tradition that has marked many milestones in our friendship, an no doubt will mark many more to come. A movie that has become a comfort movie, as well as an endless well of inspiration.

Saturday was National Day of the Cowboy, and this month's (and anniversary) watch fit perfectly into that.

And to think it all started as a talk on July 24th 2021. A thunderstorm and a weekend later, we had this. We still do.

The fact that the term Maverick is actually a western term for unclaimed, unbranded feral cattle is making this post even better

I keep seeing Western AUs for Top Gun (basically just @forsty and @caveiratimida with the good stuff out here) so here's something I've thought of purely because I began watching someone new on youtube who's background music sounds like ragtime music.

Goose and Carole own a bar. Penny Benjamin also works here. Goose is not a cowboy, he plays piano and has a twirly moustache, getting his nickname from how he rode into town on the back of a cart carrying geese, and his laugh of course. They may not be cowboys (or girls) but they know their customers enough to know how to handle a gun. There's been enough bar fights over what song Goose plays that Carole and Penny have had to master the art of intimidation.

They're on good terms with the local Sheriff Thomas Kazansky and his deputy Ronald Kerner (this is from this specific post by @caveiratimida ). They're on especially good terms with Ron, nicknamed Slider after he fell asleep on his horse and slid off, who can sometimes be found frequenting their saloon after hours and has come out wearing the frilly shirts that Goose wears.

Some of the others are there too, Hollywood is called that (before hollywood was a thing) because he got a holly christmas wreath stuck around his head one Christmas. Wolfman is called that because he is rumoured to have been raised by the wolves on a mountain nearby. Chipper was a lumberjack, that's about it. Sundown rode into town (there's a lot of this but it's frontier times so this is just another new mining town out west during the gold rush, also yes the 1800/1900s are my favourite period in history) on a sunset and was the perfect picture of a cowboy. Iceman used to brag about taking cattle to the more snowier regions before (if that was even a thing) so he was sarcastically called Iceman, before he became a sheriff.

But then a rogue lone ranger comes into town starting trouble, starts a few bar fights in Goose and Carole's saloon, messes with people's horses and cattle. Turns out, after Iceman books him and he's in a cell, that he's a bounty hunter.

Iceman doesn't like him, hates that he can just go out there and do his job for him. Mav doesn't like that Iceman is so restricted by the law, if you want to do good, you do good despite the law because you know it's good.

Stuff happens, pregnant Carole riding a horse, pregnant Carole with a shotgun, Bradley with a straw hat walking around in the mud, Goose with a harmonica, western stuff

END OF THE YEAR BOOK TAG 2023

It's the end of the year again! I've been doing this tag since 2020 and I love looking at the stats every year. Although my 5 star reads keep getting lesser every year or I'm just getting more strict with my ratings, who knows? Some answers might be a continuation of my Mid Year Book Freak Out Tag so I don't repeat books again. Here are the questions:

1. How many books did you read this year?

I read 166 books this year (including 4 rereads)

2. What genres did you read?

62 romance books

59 mystery/thrillers

15 fantasy books

11 contemporaries

3 non-fiction books

3 historical fiction

1 poetry

3. What age ranges did you read?

130 adult books

16 young adult books

13 new adult books

7 middle grade books

4. How many books got each rating?

23 five star books (including 4 rereads)

69 four star books

58 three star books

16 two star books

5. Best book you've read this year?

I think Babel by R. F. Kuang is still my number one of the year, nothing was able to top that reading experience for me. I've made a post with all my 5 star reads of the year if you need more recs!

6. Have you completed any series this year?

It was my reading goal to complete more series and i definitely did that.

Dance of Thieves duology by Mary E. Pearson

Tattered and Torn series by Catherine Cowles

Spirit Hunters by Ellen Oh

Queen's Cove series by Stephanie Archer

13. Books that lived up to the hype

14. Books that did not live up to the hype

15. Longest and shortest book you read this year

Longest book: Final Offer by Lauren Asher (583 books)

Shortest book: Not Your Valentine by Jackie Lau (136 pages)

16. Did you accomplish your reading goals

I did complete 5 series so that's done. I read more than 100 books but i didn't manage to finish The Count of Monte Cristo because i gave up halfway because I had started slumping. I will try to pick it up again next year!

17. Reading plans for next year

I want to slow down on my reading and try to put quality over quantity because this reading year was so average.

Modena: la scuola va in città, a teatro “il cielo fa da sfondo”.

Modena: la scuola va in città, a teatro “il cielo fa da sfondo”. Dal Teatro Storchi alla Tenda, dal Teatro Tempio alla Delfini: "Prendersi cura delle nuove generazioni: la scuola va in città", dal 5 al 7 ottobre a Modena, parlerà anche il linguaggio dell'arte coniugato nella musica, nella danza e nel teatro. "Il cielo fa da sfondo" è il titolo dell'esclusiva serata evento organizzata insieme a Emilia Romagna Teatro Ert/Teatro Nazionale in programma venerdì 6 ottobre alle 21 al teatro Storchi, uno spettacolo che parla innanzitutto ai giovani: tre riflessioni sul diventare grandi, in una condivisone tra artisti e spettatori attraverso i linguaggi della danza, del teatro e della musica. Si parte da "Eclissi Dal buio alla luce" Azione danzata per le performers de Le parole del corpo, corso di Alta formazione di Drammaturgia fisica, cofinanziato dal Fondo Sociale Europeo, Regione Emilia-Romagna, a cura di Michela Lucenti coreografa e danzatrice fondatrice della compagnia Balletto Civile. Poi il sole lascerà spazio più al cielo e all'indagine attraverso la parola e la scrittura letteraria con il reading di Noemi Grasso, attrice e cantante diplomata alla Scuola del Teatro Stabile di Torino. Il terzo atto dello spettacolo è affidato alla voce straordinaria di Casadilego in concerto, la giovanissima cantautrice vincitrice di X Factor 2020 e protagonista dello spettacolo "Lazarus" di David Bowie e Enda Walsh, nella versione italiana di Valter Malosti. L'evento è gratuito con assegnazione del posto. Terminata la fase in cui è stata riservata la precedenza ai ragazzi dai 14 ai 19 anni, le prenotazioni del posto sono ora aperte a tutti utilizzando il link https://bit.ly/mfs_spettacolo_ilcielofadasfondo o direttamente alla biglietteria del Teatro Storchi. Altri appuntamenti con arte, musica e teatro sono giovedì 5 ottobre alle 19 al Teatro Tempio con "L'oca Loca", spettacolo musicale a cura di Aps Gli insuperabili in collaborazione con il Liceo Scienze Umane Sigonio. Sul palco un "Gioco dell'oca" reinventato e trasformato dove Gli Insuperabili si alternano tra performance musicali, orchestrazioni e recitazioni divertendo e divertendosi con il pubblico. L'associazione di promozione sociale Gli insuperabili e il liceo Sigonio promuovono da anni un progetto di integrazione sociale e scolastica rivolto a studenti ed ex studenti del liceo. Cooperazione, divertimento, musica e inclusione sono la base di tutte le attività proposte. Mentre sul palco della Tenda di viale Monte Kosica venerdì 6 ottobre alle 18.30 va in scena il concerto "Percorsi Sonori" a cura di Modena Moltimondi, l'Orchestra multiculturale formata da studenti e studentesse delle scuole superiori modenesi Venturi, Cattaneo Deledda, Ipsia Corni e Muratori. L'orchestra propone brani provenienti da differenti generi e tradizioni su un progetto a cura di Michele Bonifati, Simone Di Benedetto, Giulio Stermieri. Infine, per i più piccoli ma non solo, sempre venerdì 6 ottobre alle 21, l'appuntamento è presso il Chiostro della biblioteca Delfini con "I bestiolini", spettacolo di teatro disegnato sotto le stelle, con Gek Tessaro, a cura di Festival Passa la parola (in caso di maltempo l'evento si terrà nella Sala Conferenze). https://www.comune.modena.it/salastampa/archivio-comunicati-stampa/2023/10/la-scuola-va-in-citta-2-2013-a-teatro-201cil-cielo-fa-da-sfondo201d... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article
