Hmmm . . . now what did you mean by that? Have an extra special (read: "hot") neighbor you'd like to drag to the mudpit for some fun?  |

| Well, as I've been a 'lurker' here for a bit and am big on NA/LOTM and want to get into F&I re-enactment, I picked this one...Kinda like the 'ring' to it... |

Welcome, dustbunnies. You're even newer than I am! My name is taken from my favorite quote by Teddy Roosevelt:
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." |

Excellent name there, Winglo! And that's one of my favorite quotes, from good ol' Teddy, one of my favorite presidents. I think he gave the same quote in different forms, maybe in different speeches.
Here's the version I have filed away:
TO THE MAN IN THE ARENA
It is not the critic who counts, nor the man who points how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly...who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at best, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
It's interesting to see the variations in this quote.
I don't want to be a poor spirit or cold or timid soul, living in a grey twilight. (or twilight zone!) |

I like both names. And Teddy Rosevelt is one of my favorite presidents as well. Abe Lincoln and George Washington are two others. Too bad we can't great men like these present day. Our country would be a whole different place.
Anyway, great screen names! Welcome to Mohicanland! |

angicx is what I've always used for any and all online accounts... I stick with the same thing so I don't have to keep track of which one I have for what... it's bad enough with passwords, and even though I try and use the same pw too, some sites have different requirements, so it's not always easy to do. I keep it simple out of necessity, because what braincells I've managed to make it to 35 with, the baby (I'm expecting) is now sucking from me at a rapid pace!
If I had to choose only one fav scene, I guess it would be at Fort William Henry after Hawkeye finishes talking to Jack and the others about leaving to check on their families. The music starts playing as he begins walking through the camp obviously looking for someone, and walks right up to where Cora stands paused, watching him approach.... they gaze at each other for a moment and then he takes her hand and leads her off to where they wordlessly give into the passion that's been building between them...
...but the waterfall scene I described in a previous post (Alice/Uncas romance) between Uncas and Alice where they openly realize their feelings for each other and he braids her hair... man it's a toss-up. I think I like them both equally. I also really like where the three guys are running up the mountain after they jump from the falls in pursuit of the girls, with the music "I Will Find You" playing in the background... who am I kidding, I love it all (the burial ground and music!) so I'll just stop now
and just for fun...
my fav quotes
Hawkeye: My father's people say that at the birth of the sun and of his brother the moon, their mother died. So the sun gave to the earth her body, from which was to spring all life. And he drew forth from her breast the stars, and the stars he threw into the night sky to remind him of her soul. So there's the Cameron's monument. My folks' too, I guess.
Cora Munro: You are right, Mr. Poe. We do not understand what is happening here. And it's not as I imagined it would be, thinking of it in Boston and in London...
Hawkeye: Sorry to disappoint you.
Cora Munro: No, on the contrary. It is more deeply stirring to my blood than any imagining could possibly have been.
Hawkeye: No, you submit, do you hear? You be strong, you survive... You stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far, I will find you.
Cora Munro: The whole world's on fire isn't it.
crap, I said I'd stop didn't I?

I'm Part Cherokee (Ani-Yun'wiya was the original name meaning "The Principal People." Cherokee is derived from and old Creek word Chelokee meaning "people of a different speech.") And obviously I am a girl. I'll join the creative club!Ha!
As for my favorite part of LOTM that is soooo hard but I would have to say the part where Hawkeye runs across the field to save Cora. |

The capital is not spelled or pronounced like that - the capital is Islamabad.  |

| Yes the capital is Islamabad but Karachi is the largest city in Pakistan and is the provincial capital of the Sindh province apparently. |
