Legender! Hvem er din legende?

[Audun]

James Hetfield, glimrende frontmann, fantastisk vokalist.

Dimebag, sier seg selv, føler jeg:)

Cliff Burton (R.I.P), glimrende bassist, heftige soloer!

Lars Ulrich, ja det finnes mange mye bedre trommiser, men jeg digger personligheten hans, og han har gjort mye for Metallica, som er legender i mine øyne;)

Kirk Hammett. Er stor Kirk fanboy:P

Jøss! Legende-status på alle i Metallica, gitt! Vel har de skrevet sine navn i stein i forhold til historien om Heavy Metal, men...

Nuhvel, det finnes da vitterlig andre som er bedre kvalifisert til tittelen:

- Halford?

- Dio?

- Ripper Owens?

- Jørn Lande?

I'm just saying Men han er en jævlig bra frontfigur, det er jeg enig i!

Greit da. Kanskje ikke den aller aller beste, men EN AV de beste da

[Noerart]

Ja, jeg ser på alle gutta i Metallica som legender:D Ikke kun fordi de lager bra musikk, men også, som du sa, at de har skrevet sine navn inn i metalhistorien. Det kvalifiserer i mine øyne til legendestatus:D

[Bloff]

Jimi(selvsagt)

Ritchie Blackmore

Yngwie Malmsteen

John Fogerty

Nuhvel, det finnes da vitterlig andre som er bedre kvalifisert til tittelen:

- Meg?

- Deg?

- Hvem som helst?

[Slash93]

Slash. No doubt.

Det er et eller annet med soloene hans som er helt spesielt. Og lyden i Les Paul'en hans er sykt deilig.

Klarer ikke å vente til solo-albumet som kommer ut Februar-Mars!

Mark Knopfler fra Dire Straits-tiden har også noe helt spesielt. Må bare trekke fram Money For Nothing og Brothers in Arms.

Min legende er ikke en gitarist i det hele tatt. Selv om denne teksten er litt gammel, er den etter sigende sann, og noe slikt skulle jeg ønske jeg kunne ha gjort.

Title: In India, One Man Creates a Forest

MANGALORE, India, October 2, 1998 (ENS) - Standing in a sun-scorched arid

stretch of land he had newly bought, Abdul Karim made himself a promise,

"I will turn this ochre expanse green." The land where he stood is on

India's west coast near the Arabian Sea, in the Kasargod district of

Kerala State.

Nineteen years later as he walks through that land, there is the twitter

of birds in the air scented with the fragrance of wild flowers. Karim has

kept his promise, creating a whole forest out of nothing.

The rustic undergraduate, who had worked in a Mumbai (Bombay) dockyard and

run a travel agency, was 29 years old when he returned to his native

Kasargod. It was a call of the wild - he had always wanted to live in a

forest of his own.

Four years later, Karim dug a pond in his plot and the villagers were

amazed to find plenty of water in it. It was the first time someone had

struck water in that part of the village. But Karim knew, from his feel

for nature, that there would be water if there were trees. The deciduous

trees he grew were the kind that drink in water during the rains and

release it to the earth during summer. The leaves they shed helped

replenish the groundwater level.

Karim says it is the fallen leaves which were responsible for raising the

water table. "Even in reserve forests you will not find so much leaf

deposit since many people collect and sell the leaves as manure," he says.

"But I don't allow a single leaf to be removed from here."

The leaves let rain water seep into the ground. Water rippling in the pond

encouraged him to buy more land, dig more ponds and wells and plant more

trees. By the end of the eighties he was tending 32 acres of forests.

A typical forest in Kerala, but not Abdul Karim's forest.

As the trees grew tall, birds began nestling in them. "Birds are the

natural carriers of many seeds, and they dropped the seeds of many

varieties of trees and plants here," says Karim.

"Thus trees like sandalwood and ebony began growing here. If we respect

nature she shows us greater respect."

When the growth became dense, small animals like the rabbit, the mongoose

and wild hens made homes amid the thickets and shrubs. Karim is trying to

introduce the deer to this living forest.

To him, the forest is like a living being. He has never cut wood or even

broken a branch or killed any of the animals. They are guests in his green

shelter, and he makes no money out of it. "This forest is not for making

money," he says. "I created it to enjoy living here."

Enjoying it he certainly is. Ever since he moved into the house he built

on the edge of the forest in 1986 the Karims and their seven children have

been living in nature's lap. They need no electric fan, the air is

refreshingly cool even when hot winds assail neighbouring villages.

The water is sweet, unlike piped water, and the wells and ponds never dry

up. Karim has not monopolised nature's reward - 75 families in the

village depend on these wells and ponds which contain 1.5 lakh litres of

water at any time. "This forest is our greatest blessing," says Rukhia

Beevi, a villager. "It was only after Karim grew the forest that water

appeared here."

The forest has also bestowed good health on the family. No one has fallen

ill ever since Karim moved house. "The natural environment shields us

from most diseases," says Karim. "Besides our daily walk through the

forest keeps the body fit." Shemim, his six-year-old son, betrays no sign

of fatigue after a several-hour-long trek. Unlike most children of his

age, Shemim has yet to go to school because his father believes that

schooling at a very young age will stunt the natural growth of children.

For a living, Karim has a farm, a cashew nut trading business and a

shopping complex. He also builds houses near his forest for people who

want to live in communion with nature.

Five years ago, a forest officer gave him the application forms for the

Vrikshamitra award, instituted by the environment ministry. The forms

are yet to be filled out. "Living happily in this forest is a reward in

itself. So why seek others," Karim says, his face breaking into a smile.
