Organic Grants or Film Grants?

Well guess what, I have been trying to get a government for my organic operation for the longest time. Three years to be exact. Then a friend of mine calls and says “Hey, by the way, I just got a check for $10,000 for a film project.” Me – “A Film Project!!!!”

Yes, ends up he did get a $10,000 grant for hit film project. I just think its so crazy that my grant request was submitted without a response and him was taken in with warm welcoming hands. He said it was because he also has a grant proposal for the film industry that is supposed to be the best (rolling eyes) – Anyway, I felt even though my pride says I shouldn’t post this, it would be wrong if I didnt, its FilmGrants.net for those of you aspiring filmmakers out there.

Ok, back to organic news :)

King Tut – The Curse of the Mummy (feat. Zahi Hawass)

( heritage-key.com ) One of the most popular stories around the discovery of King Tutankhamun is that of the Curse of King Tut. The story was popularised after the death of the discovery’s funder Lord Carnarvon, who was believed to have succumbed to a mosquito or cobra bite, just 6 weeks after the tomb was opened. Fuelled by a mistranslation of the Anubis statue which threatened death on all those who entered the tomb, a media frenzy took over, even though the vast majority of the team, including explorer Howard Carter, went on to live long lives. Dr Zahi Hawass recounts these tales and tells us that he had never believed in such a curse upon the Tomb of King Tutankhamun. That is, until he faces his own mysterious set of circumstances after examining the boy king’s mummy.
