Was this content a rip or paraphrased from many of the poems written by Khalil Gibran?

you know he did write one about Joy and Sorrow.

Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.
And how else can it be?
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter’s oven?
And is not the lute that soothes your spirit, the very wood that was hollowed with knives?

Khalil Gibran takes a broader philosophical approach but these are universal issues poets deal with best...

Before the tears that tore us
When our own history was for us.
But communist lies
stole away our prize
and no longer can we discuss.

I don’t know! Another piece of trivia:

The Bass Player in the band “Otis Day and the Knights” is Robert Cray...:)

Greatest movie of all time...With the possible exception of Gone With the Wind.

That gif makes me grin and snicker every single time without fail… I can’t see how that is a bad thing in any way!

...anniversary edition of "Animal House"..has a great documentary on the production of the film... One of the most fascinating things was the choice of someone to write the original score for the movie, including the introductory Faber Theme which sounds like...formal college music. John Landis wanted, out of the blue...Elmer Bernstein!

Here it is, love it!

Faber College Theme - "Animal House" - Soundtrack

I am a great fan of Elmer Bernstein. No one other than Ennio Morricone can write such evocative melodies for movie scores. I still have the vinyl of Bernstein's score for To Kill a Mockingbird.

Besides Elmer Bernstein's aptly grand Faber college theme and Morricone's choral art pieces, both Bernstein and Morricone can make theme music sound just like a person's private journey in his own memory, with tender pathways and upswells of emotion, from tender to sweet to ardent to bitter, and back again.

They had everyone show up two weeks before the film began to allow people to "gel", which not only turned into two weeks of partying (and those who lived in the mid-Seventies knows what THAT was like...

The reason that Sarah Holcomb (Clorette DePasto) was admitted to a mental hospital and never heard from again (almost).

There have always been people who fall into that pit. We are all vulnerable and at risk.
