  1. Just watched the movie Everything is Illuminated (very good by the way) and there was this scene in a huge field of sunflowers with nothing but a dirt path leading up to the house in the middle of it. Every sunflower face was pointing in the exact same direction, hundreds of them, it was so eerie and surrealistic.

    Sleep well, the sunflowers will watch over you.
