Mark’s Trip to the UK We visited the William Wallace monument in Stirling, Scotland while we were on vacation in May of 2007. William Wallace was portrayed by Mel Gibson in the movie Braveheart, which is a glorified account of his story for sure… but the monument is amazing in every way. For one thing it is friggin’ huge.

The Lake District of north-west England is a consummately beautiful land of rugged hills, mountains and lakes, with pretty towns and villages set in their folds and on their shores. The poet William Wordsworth was born, lived, worked and died in this exquisite corner of England. Born in the 18th century, Wordsworth revolutionized English poetry and had a profound effect on fellow poets, like Keats, Byron and Shelley. This documentary is a biography of the poet Wordsworth, set against the background of the hills and lakes of the Lake District. Whilst looking at the superb scenery we hear the poetry of the great poet and some analysis of its significance.

It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than aristocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes.” – Abraham Lincoln “All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from the defects of the Constitution or confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nation, of coin, credit and circulation.” – John Adams 2nd President of the USA “I am afraid that the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that banks can and do create money… And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Governments and hold in the hollow of their hands the …
