Simmer's Lotting Lab.

[Shiftred]

I have a request and I believe you would could create this better then anyone. I love playing with alleys for commercial and residential. Paengs' grunge alleys and some of the IRM fillers work well for industrial and most commercial. I use some PEG's alleys and a few poorly LE'd lots for residential.  I have been trying to find an extensive set primarily for residential.  The base lot would consist of a single vehicle width gravel path with or with out a grass strip down the center between tire tracks and then prop family's of random stuff you might find in an alley, like broken down cars, trashcans, trees, lengths of fence, potholes, loose dogs etc. Thank you for considering.

"I want to wake up in a thread that never sleeps ..."

For real. It happened I felt asleep while sitting on the couch with my notebook and this thread active. And when I woke up in the middle of the night there was your new post with this great roundabout filler and the spectcular night lights.

They say little children are kissed by angels when they sleep at night. It seems, me, I was kissed by a lot ...

Excuse me. But before even touching the subject of dolphins, before using and handling them in art (and shure artist you are and I won't accept excuses on your level of artistry) one has to know at least the very basics of the meaning of the symbol.

You have to know, regarding the history of myths – of those powers doing their work inside of men – dolphins and angels are very close relatives. Hikers between the world of the Gods and the world of the men and trying to keep peace and not cold war between those worlds.

Best explained by a story. And if you think Fantozzi is making up weird stories here, please google and prove if what I say is a lie or if it is true.

Long ago in ancient greece there was a singer. A superstar like Michael Jackson. A world wide popular singer with a voice beautiful as a dawn in the rain forrest.

This singer, Arion his name, had been on tour in northern africa and now was on his way back home. He had performed in Alexandria and the whole city did run crazy. King Ptolemaios himself had paid Arion with two big wooden crate full of gold coins.

Now they were sailing toward the isle of Lesbos, the home of Arion.

And it was a few miles and the coast already visible but bad weather coming in.

And the sailors sticked their heads together and said to each others: "look, a thunderstorm arises. What if we kill Arion now and throw him overboard. And we take all the gold. And later we say it was just an accident in heavy sea?"

What a brilliant idea. The tragic death of the "voice of the ancient world" in the seas of the mediterranian! Close before home! What a tragedy! That's what the story would be. No one ever would know the truth. That they simply had robbed him and thrown overboard.

So with the thunderclouds blocking the sky the sailors pulled out their knifes and aproached Arion who was standing at the reeling watching the seagulls struggeling in the wind.

Turning around and immediatly understanding the hopelessness of his situation, Arion asked:"you gonna kill me?" And as the sailors nodded without words, he said: " so please, let me take my lyra and sing a last tune to the Gods, so they may take care of me." Again the sailors nodded and so Arion began to sing.

And while he began to sing the wind brushed up. And the sky all darkened. As his voice was crystal and warm as always and it seemed there was no fear in his voice at all.

And while Arion was singing and the wind getting stronger and waves beating higher ...

... a dolphin appeared close to the boat.

And on the last note of his song Arion jumped overboard and was washed away by the sea.

And the sailors laughed: "Hey! He commited suicide, our great artist, we didn't even need to kill him!"

And in the rainy thunderstorm and with the howling wind they set their sails for the last few miles to the harbour of Lesbos.

And when they arrived, soldiers were waiting on the quai and arrested them.

Because when Arion had jumped overboard, the dolphin did pick him up immediatly bringing him to his home.

It's saids that the God of the ancient seas, Mr. Poseidon himself, therefore immortalized this dolphin. The savior of arts voice.

This means he took this dolphin out of the water and did put him amongst the stars.

And that is the reason why there is a constellation in the sky, we call dolphin.



So sorry if I spoiled this thread. But this should be known when dealing with dolphins - as art treats them as holy animals. As said before, not different from angels. Which are those in christian mythology to rescue men from evil.

@fantozzi  Your propensity at citing historical and non historical events and anecdotes is rather fascinating. Thank you!
