of cabbages and kings

Do you like ALICE IN WONDERLAND? I think you either really like it, or like me, don't like it at all.........well now I have to stop, as I think of many things in Alice in Wonderland, so someone that truly didn't like the movie (alas, I have to admit that I have never read the "true" and full edition of the story, I do have many and varied mental scenes attached to my cranium with this title.

Remember when Alice is talking to Tweedledee and Tweedledum and they ask her if she likes poetry? Well, I can't remember which one of them recites the poem 'The Walrus and the Carpenter", but one of my most favorite "lines, sayings" whatever, comes from that.........why, because I think it just about explains me........

“The time has come,” the Walrus said,“To talk of many things:Of shoes—and ships—and sealing wax—Of cabbages—and kings—And why the sea is boiling hot—And whether pigs have wings.”

Who cares about any of the above subjects, but good gravy, I bet I could prattle on about half of them..........sad, huh? Or is it? When I was trying to think of a name for my business (well I like to call it a business), I wanted to use those words.........of cabbages and kings...........and everyone that I shared that with, just looked at me.........with this totally blank look on their faces. I truly think they wanted to either laugh in my face or slap me along side the head to make sure that I was still in this world.........thus, I left .....of cabbages and kings.........with Tweedledee and Tweedledum............look at these two, man I wouldn't stop and ask for directions from them, would you?

Another line or conversation that I like is this one.....

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked."Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.""How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice."You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Look at that cat..........and he disappears................man don't talk to me about the 60's...........and trust me, I didn't get to be a flower child at all........nope came from a really strict home, no free love or opinions for me!!!

Ok, there a bazillion sites on the internet dedicated to this novel/movie (and I guess there are ballets too?).............me, I just remember little snippets here and there..........you know, like.............of cabbages and kings
