Wondering lately if there are any anti-war bands out there.

Watched John Lennon in concert singing “Imagine” and “Give Peace a Chance” from the 1970’s and remembered how music can anchor a concept into the hearts and and minds of an audience.

When the chorus began the entire audience was singing with John “All we are saying, is give peace a chance.”

I don’t know if protests or music had any effect on the length of the Vietnam war. Maybe the powers in charge just were done anyway, but unity evident in the audience was inspiring to see.

Who’s taking up the anti-war banner? Who’s this generation’s John Lennon? Marvin Gaye?

Who really wants to give peace a chance?

I finished reading book twelve, The Gathering Storm, of the Wheel of Time series last night.

It was delightful to see this series in the capable hands of Brandon Sanderson after Robert Jordan’s untimely demise. It’s a fresh perspective and enjoyed the pacing of this book more than the last few books in the series. I thought the story lines were presented in a more straightforward manner which made it easier to follow. There were some truly exciting chapters in this one.

The end is in sight and that’s good too. I want to know how it ends but I’ll have to wait a few more years for that.

I read today that a movie is being planned about book one called The Eye of the World. The scope of Robert Jordan’s world seems to be beyond the scope of any movie. I was a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings movies and thought they did an outstanding job staying true to thheart of the story and the characters. I have no idea how they could make a movie about the Wheel of Time series without destroying it in the process.

It’s NaBloPoMo or National Blog Posting Month.

Seems like enough reason to break the “silence” from http://ArcherActon.com and resume posting.

What has Archer Acton been up to lately you ask?

I’ll write about work later but I’ve been adjusting to new roommates. Sharde and Carlos are both students at a downtown Saint Paul school. They’re both quite nice but we don’t really “connect” with each other as friends. There’s an age difference that makes it hard … more so for them than for me.

Reconnected with my writing group last month after a long hiatus. I wrote something for the meeting,

I attend Poetry Slams at the Artists Quarter the first Monday of each month and watch some really talented people performing their written word. This was the group that became National Poetry Slam Champions in 2009 and I am not surprised.

Stay tuned for another post tomorrow.
