Leaderfoot Bridge Poem

Posted on March 6, 2009 at 4:30pm 1 Comment 0 Favorites

The river runs from west to east

roads south to north

from bank to bank three bridges span

three centuries worth

before these the fly-boat Brae

led down to its ferry

near the ghost-line of the Roman way

on the outward journey

Salmon sandstone pillars rise

above Leaderfoot

the meeting of two singing streams

by leafy Ravenswood

At 2:25am on April 14, 2010, AnnelidaFilms said…: Okay, if I got this right, I can post Videolympic challenges and offer the booty of my choice to the winner. How one wins and who makes that decision is a mystery to me; who am I supposed to bribe? I don't see anything in the rules against shotgunning multiple challenges, so here's my semi-officially-worded challenge:

I challenge you to be my opponent in Videolympics #1!

For any and every challenge listed below that you accept and I lose, I'll give you your choice of a) one official Canadian Toonie (which costs 16 cents to make and is worth 2 dollars US), or b) I'll post a vlog on The Ark about any subject of your choice.

More details at:
http://lovevideoplayhouse.ning.com/group/arkathon

I challenge you to any or all of the following Videolympic missions:

1. Show us what's in your purse or your wallet.
3. Show us how you created a piece of origami, but do it "artfully"
5. Show us some items that you're embarrassed about owning.
7. You're a vlogger and it's the year 2099.
9. Make a video with the title "Ten Things I Hate About...."
12. Edit a scene with you & another Arkian so that it feels like you're both in the same room.
14. Fly
17. Do a time-lapsed video (using your own footage).
18. Create a stop-motion video (using your own footage).
19. Attempt a special effect that's simple but impressive
20. Do something funny with yourself and a green screen
24. Interact with an animated character.
27. Write an original song and perform it as an edited music video
