“What a sad era when it is easier to smash an atom than a prejudice.” ― Albert Einstein

“What a sad era when it is easier to smash an atom than a prejudice.”  ― Albert Einstein

So there I sat. And waited to be outraged. Oh gosh, was I OUTRAGED at the end.

~ Through a prince putting on make-up in the opening scene. But that's what men did in the 18th century :p .....

~ Poor Lefou's anthem to Gaston. What a boorish MCP bully of a man :(

~ Madame de La Grande Bouche attacking by "dressing" 3 musketeers in her dresses. That's a nice tribute to the great Alexandre Dumas who wrote " He opened the door of a big wardrobe and hid himself among Milady's dresses and negligees" (Three Musketeers)

- FINALLY, the barely 3-second-blink&miss dance scene. OH PLISS! Fred and Bing did that in the last century and people applauded (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QinJxjjq9j4)

I was outraged at the mob mentality. KILL the Beast ? The Beast in your own hearts.

"It's a beast! One as tall as a mountain
We won't rest 'til he's good and deceased
Sally forth! Tally ho!
Grab your sword! Grab your bow!
Praise the Lord and here we go!
We don't like
What we don't understand
In fact it scares us
And this monster is mysterious at least."

Tale As Old As Time

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bitter-sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

The Sherlockian Trio







I love, love and love Sherlock Holmes. First the books, then the films and now the TV series.

An old friend was the first to loan me the DVD set of BBC's Sherlock some time ago and I have become mad about cumberbatch since. So it is fitting that The Sherlockian Trio will be presented to her for her birthday !😉

My Amigurumi Brothers

Image may contain: stripesTime flies and I can't believe we are already a quarter into 2017!🙌  As both my brothers were March babies, I have decided to make amigurumis out of them for their birthdays 😁😃😄😄

With foresight, my learned Grandfather named them 国成国强。They were "launched" when the country was forming成 and getting stronger强.

Now..Go Forth and Prosper!
