The Fool and the Magus
Tumblr media
The Fool is potentiality. The Fool abides. The Magus draws the potential into actuality. The Magus wills.
Yet, there’s no Magus without the Fool. He only brings about what the Fool dreams.
Yet, the Fool’s dream is a dream of everything, And the Magus can only do one thing at a time.
So the Magus, guided by cunning and guile, wields the sword of distinction, cutting the air until there’s one thing reflected in the waters.
Fire into air, then air into water – and then, the worldly dance of the manifest.

por quinta vez en menos de dos minutos revisa pantalla de su celular, esperando a ver si señal se reinstaura, pero es envando porque las barritas siguen sin aparecer. un suspiro angustiado sale entre sus labios, pues desde que ha llegado al refugio del hotel que no sabe nada de amistades. entonces, en medio de la oscuridad y como si se tratara de un milagro lo ve a él. ' ¡kaden! ' exclama, agitando los brazos desde el sofá en el que está sentada. tobillo lastimado no le permite levantarse para ir tras de él, así que espera que eso sea suficiente.

Paroles de "La Chanson Des Vieux Amants" Jacques Brel
Bien sûr, nous eûmes des orages. Vingt ans d'amour, c'est l'amour fol. Mille fois tu pris ton bagage. Mille fois je pris mon envol. Et chaque meuble se souvient. Dans cette chambre sans berceau. Des éclats des vieilles tempêtes. Plus rien ne ressemblait à rien. Tu avais perdu le goût de l'eau. Et moi celui de la conquête
Mais mon amour. Mon doux mon tendre mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour. Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime. Moi, je sais tous tes sortilèges. Tu sais tous mes envoûtements. Tu m'as gardé de pièges en pièges. Je t'ai perdue de temps en temps. Bien sûr tu pris quelques amants. Il fallait bien passer le temps. Il faut bien que le corps exulte. Finalement finalement. Il nous fallut bien du talent. Pour être vieux sans être adultes
Ô mon amour. Mon doux mon tendre mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour. Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime. Et plus le temps nous fait cortège. Et plus le temps nous fait tourment. Mais n'est-ce pas le pire piège. Que vivre en paix pour des amants. Bien sûr tu pleures un peu moins tôt. Je me déchire un peu plus tard. Nous protégeons moins nos mystères. On laisse moins faire le hasard. On se méfie du fil de l'eau. Mais c'est toujours la tendre guerre
Ô mon amour. Mon doux mon tendre mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour. Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime

« Le Bal des Ardents »
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finished a seven pages summary of one of my favorite historic moment in French history «  Le Bal des Ardents » ! It is set the 28 January 1389 .
Now some facts I couldn’t put in it !
Charles VI killed four men in a frenzy because he thought they were British soldier send to kill him ! They were in facts, only his close guard. The episode started after a man talked to him in the forest it all took place. He took 8 months to recover from this.
Strangely enough, even though « le Bal des Ardents » was a hugely traumatizing event, it is not the one that granted him his nickname « Le Fol » (the crazy ). It’s only 7 months after his mental health declined again without signs of improvements.
Infos kind of vary there but the event took place in the Hotel Saint-Pol OR the destructed and then reconstructed Hotel de la Reine Blanche.
Louis d’Orléans was 17 when it happened. People did think he did this to kill Charles VI and took the thrones. After the event he build the chapel « Le Couvent des Célestins » to expiate his crimes.
English is not my first languages also , sorry about the mistakes !!

RIP MARTY KROFFT 
1937-2023
Tumblr media
Marty Krofft was born on April 9, 1937 in Montréal, Québec, Canada. With his brother Sid, Krofft created some of television's most fantastic and magical programs, mostly centered around puppetry. Lucille Ball's interaction with the Krofft was brief, but memorable.
Tumblr media
The Krofft puppets first gained attention at the 1962 Seattle Worlds Fair where they presented a show called "Les Poupees de Paris" that included marionettes impersonating popular celebrities. In 1964-1965, they presented the (updated) show at the Worlds Fair in New York. In 1967, Ball's recorded voice, along with Jackie Gleason, Liberace, and Mae West and many other stars, was heard in “Six Flags presents Sid and Marty Krofft’s Circus”.
Tumblr media
On September 30, 1977, Donny and Marie welcomed Lucille Ball, who plays the Tin Lady in a Krofft-style spoof of “The Wizard of Oz” starring Ray Bolger. The first three seasons of "The Donny & Marie Show" were produced by the Kroffts, who also created the variety series. Ball appeared on the 2nd episode of the show's 3rd season, and the Osmonds (after a long legal battle) had finally won creative control from the Kroffts feeling they had outgrown the child-like atmosphere created by them. They moved the show to Utah and took over as producers just two months after this episode aired. In this episode, however, the Krofft vibe is still palpably present.
A few Lucille Ball / Desilu performers were seen on Krofft's many television shows.
Johnny Silver played Ludicrous Lion on TV's "H.R. Pufnstuf" (1969) and appeared as Dr. Blinky in the 1970 feature film.
Charles Nelson Reilly and Jerry Maren (both seen on "Here's Lucy") were part of "Lidsville" (1971).
1972's telefilm "Fol-De-Rol" (a film of their 1968 fairy tale puppet show) included Lucy guest stars Ann Sothern, Mickey Rooney, and Totie Fields.
"Sigmund and the Sea Monsters" (1972) starred Ball's good friend Mary Wickes as Aunt Zelda, and also featured Sidney Miller as the voice of Sweet Mama Ooze.
"The Lost Saucer" (1975) included Lucy friends Ruth Buzzi, Jim Nabors, and Vito Scotti.
"Far Out Space Nuts" (1975) featured Hal Smith and John Carradine, both of whom had appeared on "The Lucy Show."
Also seen on "Donny & Marie" during the Krofft years were Desi Arnaz, Jack Albertson, Bob Hope, Milton Berle, Ruth Buzzi, Buddy Hackett, Edgar Bergen, Andy Griffith, Rich Little, Iron Eyes Cody, Arthur Godfrey, and Vincent Price.
