If some of these don't move you to tears, you're not human.


VC Execution

Napalm on children in vietnam

to whoever took the time to compile these photos/text originally...

LAst year i had the pleasure of traveling Vietnam for a few months, The war reminisce museum is a very scarry place. Very graphic photos hang on the walls. Also going to the cells where US and viet prisoners were held and seeing photos of what was done to them and the aftermath made me almost sick. My wife had tears running down her face for the whole time. It blows my mind how they welcome me "canadian" and our neighbors down south with such open arms and huge smiles.... history is fucked up... TM.

VERY moving photographs, but I feel the need to lighten things up a tad. Here are a few for the deadheads. These are photographs of an art/photography collection that was auctioned on ebay a while back by (I believe) Jerry's former wife.

pigpen (the original keyboardist) and Janis Joplin

5pc GD Top row l>r Bobby Weir and Jerry Garcia, and lower is Phil Lesh, Pigpen (Ron McKernan), and Bill Sommers (Kreutzmann). This is the origional lineup that was first known as the Warlocks and then later became the Grateful Dead

Dylan with the dead. From the 8o's. back is Brent Midland (keyboardist of the era), Micky Hart (percussionist), Phil Lesh, Billy Kruetzmann, Jerry Garcia, Bob Dylan, and Bobby Weir

Wow very emotional photos, the burning monk has always been powerful to me, took a Vietnam class in college where I learned some more about it, as well as the photographer etc. Child with cancer was a bit much for me... Same with the starving children, does a lot to remind you (as many have said) how good our lives really are.
