🌊 SURF 'N TURF 🏝️
-THE BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-
By the time he descended into the underworld, Orpheus was already spoken of as the finest musician the world had ever produced, a gift the ancient sources trace directly to his parentage.
His father was said to be either Apollo, god of music himself, or the Thracian river god Oeagrus, and his mother Calliope, chief of the nine Muses.
Whichever bloodline the poets favored, the result was the same: a voice and a lyre capable of moving anything that could hear, rivers, mountains, wild animals, even trees, which were said to uproot themselves and lean toward him as he played.
That gift meant nothing against death itself, not at first. When his wife Eurydice died from a snakebite, Orpheus did something no mortal before him had seriously attempted.
He walked down into the underworld alive, armed with nothing but his lyre, to demand her back from its rulers.
What happened next is described in unusual detail by the Roman poet Ovid, who imagined the entire underworld pausing to listen.
As Orpheus sang his case before Hades and Persephone, explaining his love and his loss, the effect rippled outward through every corner of the realm of the dead.
The bloodless ghosts wept, something ghosts were not otherwise known to do.
Tantalus, cursed to reach eternally for water and fruit that pulled away from him whenever he stretched toward it, momentarily stopped clutching at the retreating wave.
Ixion’s wheel, spinning him in endless torment, stood still. Tityus, whose liver was eaten daily by vultures as punishment, was left alone by his tormentors for a moment.
And Sisyphus, condemned to push his boulder up a hill forever only to watch it roll back down each time, simply stopped and sat on the stone itself, listening.

~Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
What's fascinating about Huxley is how his book "Brave New World" predicted so much about our modern world. His ideas about technology, society, and human nature are still super relevant today.

Cliff Robinson is a British comic book artist and inker,.... 
born in 1962, best known for his extensive work with 2000 AD and for helping shape the modern visual identity of Judge Dredd.
Time changes everyone, but dedication leaves a legacy.
Back in 1979, at just 32 years old, Robby Robinson stood on stage displaying one of the most impressive physiques in bodybuilding. His size, symmetry, and conditioning earned him the nickname "The Black Prince" and made him a respected figure in the sport.
Most people would expect nearly five decades to erase that level of fitness. But Robby had a different plan.
Now, in 2026, at 79 years old, he can still strike the same iconic pose that made him famous. While the years have naturally changed his body, the discipline, work ethic, and commitment that built his physique never disappeared.
For more than 60 years, Robby Robinson has followed a lifestyle centered on training, nutrition, and consistency. He didn't rely on short-term motivation or quick fixes. Instead, he showed up day after day, year after year, building habits that lasted a lifetime.
What makes his story so remarkable isn't just the muscle he built—it's the fact that he never stopped taking care of himself. In a world where many people struggle to stay active as they age, Robby continues to inspire generations of fitness enthusiasts by proving that strength, health, and passion don't have an expiration date.
At 79 years old, he remains living proof that longevity is not about being perfect. It's about staying committed long after everyone else has quit.
Robby Robinson's greatest achievement may not be the trophies he won decades ago—it may be showing the world what a lifetime of consistency can accomplish.
🏆 The Black Prince. A bodybuilding legend. A symbol of discipline. An example that age is only a number when dedication becomes a way of life.
