Dear Hollywood, If I wanted to see something butchered, Id go to the meat counter




A Thousand times...NO.
As much as I LOOVE Jackie Earle Hailey, a thousand times NO!!
A Nightmare on Elm Street without Robert Englund is like...well its just damn wrong.

Of course Ill go see it, but Im not getting my hopes up.

Especially wince Michael Bay has his name attached to the project.

(that typo up there, *wince* instead of *since*, yeah it stays. Its funny cause its true)

Get the hell out of my city.





Protesting in support of free trade, global warming, homelessness, AIDS, racism etc, etc.

All of that, its fine with me.

Its your God given right to stand up and tell anyone who will listen what you think and feel, especially in America.

But when you start rolling dumpsters at cops, lighting fires and breaking up businesses....get the fuck out.

These are all people who can stay...nothing wrong with protesting...peacefully, intelligently, respectfully.








But you bored little rich kids, selfstyled anarchists, daddy didnt hug you enough so you feel the need to break things assholes, you, you can leave.








Please explain to me how all of this damage helps your cause?

Also, when the Police tell you"
"...If you do not disperse you may be subject to arrest or other police action. Other police action may include actual physical removal, the use of riot control agents and or less-lethal munitions which could cause injuries."
It translates to GO THE F**K HOME AND GET OUT OF THE STREET!! The second you ignore that warning, all bets are off.

Night of the Creeps...

Twice in the past month I have heard this weird noise outside.
Its some kind of animal, but I have no idea what it is.
The third time I heard it I managed to get a little of it on video.

So....anyone wanna hedge a bet as to what this is?
Im sticking with Mutant Dinosaur Bird Thing.



you can hear it at 0:02, 0:04 and 0:09

Im hoping it makes a return so I can get a better recording.

Everyday Miracles.

Back in August, local news anchor Kelly Frey and her husband Jason,spoke out about their troubled pregnancy with their son, Bennett.
While still in the womb, Bennett was diagnosed with a terminal birth defect, he was not expected to even draw a breath upon birth.

Bennett was born today, and he cried.

Hes currently undergoing treatment at Children's Hospital.

Kelly and Jason had a photographer friend of theirs on hand to capture the moment to have a memory of their child, and she captured so much more than that
You can click here to see the pictures, but please read the link above so you have a full grasp of just how amazing and miraculous these pictures really are.

Please keep the Frey's in your thoughts and prayers.
