Appropriate? Lets see if I can find a way, I tried, and found a way this relates to WP.net.

Plot summary for
The Brain Eaters
IMDB: "making communication with the outside world impossible, and leaving the responsibility of stopping the invasion up to Powers and a small group of free individuals."

I suppose its up to us then...

That movie is eactly 100 years old. Or.. Atleast it will be when I am 69 years old. Not even kidding, that movie came out in 1959, and I was born in 1989, so in 2059, I will be 69. Can't wait till I get to live in the 2070s man... I'll be like yeaaah man I'm livin in the 70s, there used to be these hippies in the 1900s, and people will be like whats a hippie?

My mom's a hippy my grandparents were beatniks. So I'm glad to have the priviledge of living in an authentic bohemian family.

My dad on the other hand....has never stopped loving these B films. -_-

hope you tell them something like this:

Quote:

Any group who rejects the values their society holds as being oppressive and wants to see that society change can be said to be counter cultural. The Counter Culture that the Hippie movement was a part of is concerned with all things progressive all things that promote understanding amongst peoples and allows individuals the freedom to develop as they please. When do you start something that is part of everything our society is?

So many trends and movements do not lend themselves to dateable bullet points. The Punk movement for instance, when did it start? Punk is like the word hippie and doesn't really mean a damn thing. James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause is definitely punk, and The Velvet Underground and Iggy Pop are just as much punk as the Sex Pistols .

I chose to begin this timeline with the French Revolution. While the American Revolution and Constitution had progressive elements in it, the rights were only for a narrowly defined group. Only land owning educated white men originally had the vote. The American Revolution was fought mainly for a change in government and when G. Washington, personally led the army to suppress The Whiskey Rebellion , he was proclaiming that the American Revolution was not a social one.

Only the fact that the People kept demanding and fighting for more rights were they eventually granted, and it is still an on going process in the United States today. The French Revolution radically altered all aspects of French society. The rights the revolution invoked were said to be natural and all-inclusive. I end this introduction with the words of that, and my own Revolutions: Liberty, Equality, Fraternity! Peace and Love!

really interesting time line:

My mom not really into films. She loves music, some old but mostly modern. I grew up with her listening to loud music, dancing, lots of parties when we was all sent to bed and was supposed to go to sleep.
