![]() Navy Blue Oversized ''Alicia'' Hobo $44.90 This bag is more attractive than the pictures convey (I ordered the brown), and it's sturdy enough to hold a few textbooks. I actually love the way the handles are attached to the bag... I carry a ton of stuff around town, and I'm not worried at all that the handles are going to come of, etc. (a typical ailment for 90% of the purses I've bought). It's also VERY roomy. The best in its price range. Love this bag. ![]() Doesn't Mean Anything $1.29 "Doesn't Mean Anything" is a song reminiscent of the Beatles era. It is a song that begins to mind being on a train. As the speed of the train rolls along so does this song. It has a message that materials things are not important but love is the most important thing in life. This song hits home for me because my father passed away. When we were packing his clothes and belongings after his death, I realize that his love was the most valuable and important thing in life. I miss his hugs, seeing him and talking to him on a daily basis. This song means everything to me because this song brings back memories of the times together. It is a very touching song and it is Alicia Keys mantra "If I Ain't Got You", "No One" , "Like You'll Never See Me Again" and now "Doesn't Mean Anything". Alicia is a very thoughtful and compassionate musician. ![]() Alicia $7.99 Few people know the truth about the Holocaust, but Alicia experienced it. As Polish Jews, her family suffered greatly. She watched as her family was slowly picked off by the soldiers and then by starvation. She managed to escape with her life time and time again by using a combination of great fortune and her knowledge. She and her mother survived by her continued ability to work in fields for small meals and shelter. Unfortunately her ailing mother finally fell at the hands of a Nazi officer and Alicia had to continue on alone. She managed to keep herself alive and even take care of some Jewish children, even younger than her, that she discovered doing the very same thing she was doing. She managed to survive the war and became a resistance fighter and aid to those trying to escape the still very biased Poland. This is one of the most rich and compelling Holocaust sagas I have ever read. At times it can be a little too detailed and feel drawn out, but it conveys the reality of her situation. A must read for any Holocaust student. ![]() As I Am $13.96 Alicia Keys again dazzles with a collection of songs that showcase her voice & her ability to chose lyrics that are stirring & meaningful. Tracks are well mixed & great for a dinner party or a road trip! |
