Ashley's Philosophy Corner
Surely there is no greater call, no greater duty, and no greater work to occupy that of the young man's time, than to go out amongst the nations, and proclaim His beliefs of peace and happiness, of the truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ here upon the earth today.
Austin's Funnies Corner
This video could very well be placed in the random awesome corner, because it's very random, and very awesome, but I got too many amused laughs out of it to not put it in the funnies corner. So, enjoy! You have to admit, it's a pretty cool spectacle for the eyes.
Alex's Random Awesome Corner
This video is of a fusion jazz band of exceptional talent. If nothing else, you have to appreciate the Improv skill that went into the making of this song. Not only that, but this is Dixieland jazz, which is a spirited, motioned, and severely difficult fast-tempo form of jazz, and one of my favorites. Especially towards the end, there's something about it that just makes every part of you want to move to the thrill and the beat of it. I hope you appreciate and enjoy it as much as I did!
Anna's Great Literature Corner

--Thomas Hardy, Tess of the D'Urbervilles
“Beauty lay not in the thing, but in what the thing symbolized.”
--Thomas Hardy, Tess of the d'Urbervilles

--Thomas Hardy, Tess of the d'Urbervilles
“Did you say the stars were worlds, Tess?"
"Yes."
"All like ours?"
"I don't know, but I think so. They sometimes seem to be like the apples on our stubbard-tree. Most of them splendid and sound - a few blighted."
"Which do we live on - a splendid one or a blighted one?"
"A blighted one.”
--Thomas Hardy, Tess of the d'Urbervilles
