- Books Our century is great too because it's the information age. We've got a lot of different digital stuff such as phones, tablets, laptops etc. And our books are not the same as they used to be. Yeah, on the one hand it's good and convenient. New e-books are cheaper, smaller, need less place, we can have them in our gadgets. But, despite all these advantages, they can never replace printed books. At least for me. I like printed books, the way they smell and the moment of opening and turning the pages. I'm proud of my library and I want to extend it. So... Our era is amazing... but I don't want that the good things just slip away...October 6, 201300
I'm for it. Both of them. As to Capital punishment, I think it's very important for society as well as for a state. The criminal situation will be better, if people know the result of their act. The level of crime will be lower. And it's fair. Eye for eye, as the saying goes. But of course there always will be such kind of problems as execution of innocent. But it means that investigations should be more detailed.
As for euthanasia, my opinion is that every person has a right to save himself from painful and unbearable illness. So I think it makes sense.

You know what exactly you can and what you should change. If you fall you know which further way to choose. If you've never tried you're full of uncertainty and doubts. So you should just never give up. That's all

I love this song, and I totally agree with you Bruce about it's meaning. Bob could write such kind of lyrics which you can simply enjoy on the one hand and try to go deeply into it on the other.
Lilya, russian version of this song was performed by DDT, wasn't it?
0 votedOctober 4, 20130Do not think! Do! :) that's really important to spend less time thinking about your goals! You should just keep your aim in your mind. But you know, we're wasting a lot of time trying to imagine our results. We should speak less and think less about dribs and drabs. And just try to achieve exactly what you want;) and you can also read some books about time management. I'm going to read some:) good luck!
0 votedOctober 4, 20130So the first song is 'Blowin' in the Wind' by Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail,
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, and how many times must a cannon ball fly,
Before they're forever banned?The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.How many years can a mountain exist,
Before it is washed to the sea?
Yes, and how many years can some people exist,
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head,
And pretend that he just doesn't see?The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,
The answer is blowing in the wind.How many times must a man look up,
Before he sees the sky?
Yes, and how many ears must one man have,
Before he can hear people cry ?
Yes, and how many deaths will it take till we know,
That too many people have died?The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.0 votedOctober 4, 20130- Let's discuss songs lyrics!
Hi guys! I think, that' s a good idea to discuss some songs. Tell each other thoughts about lyrics. I'll write down the first one and after our discussion, we will send another song, etc. What do you think?) I hope you'll enjoy this process! And it'll help you with practicing your English too:)
