Fatso to Snake (on B.C. comics by Johnny Hart)

I was looking for Halloween music for kids and my search was, "Trick or Treat". I got the usual this, that, and the other thing, but little that I wanted or knew existed. I did see the listing of, "Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13; story of Trick or Treat Pete". What is the heck is that? What's it doing there? Why would ANYONE be looking for it? Why was it made?

No, no. I really don't want answers. Just like the guy who dragged a woman to death, leaving a mile-long bloody trail on the road -- victim dying of asphyxia/strangulation rather than blood loss. I guess it was better to die that way than by the dragging. Would I ask the guy a lot of questions, no. I'd walk him to the scene of the crime and add another body, his. This then would end the process. Could there be a doubt that he is guilty, no.

Like Fatso, I'd aggressively hunt down the snake and bash it apart with my club -- not neanderthal but primative human extinguishing the thing with extreme prejudice. Please, don't infect the young, that's what I'm asking here. The adult welcome their own misery, but the young shouldn't have it forced upon them. The "song" itself sounds almost fun, if you don't know what a drag queen is.

Alpha Bravo Charlie

Monkeyjack called me, since we have not spoken for weeks now -- not hostile, just never called each other. Anyway, he and his family are over their illness, though his wife was again mildly ill with something else. More to the point, Charlie, his son, wanted to talk with Uncle [me]. There was enough background noise that we were about talking in a concert. Conversation was a challenge, but nice. I tried prompting him, but got only mild feedback.

At one point in time, the pauses were as classes; long and seemingly pointless. Ah, I reasoned, they were home and good friend TV cartoons ensnared hiim. I was a nuisance thereafter. Monkeyjack eventually interceeded and got the phone back. We bade goodbye. What I did find out, while Monkeyjack hasn't had time to bloody well do much, is that his business seems to be fine ... he's marrying again (this time to company) and that a "beloved" large fish passed away.

He declared on the mountaintop that he was not bowling this year! He regarded the cost and payout (end of league and entertainment value - cost of going and eating and drinking) were not worth it. He considered, within a year or more to join a macho-competitve league that offered more challenge than "candy-ass" as he called it.

I won't bowl -- I won't do it.

Neighbor chat

While one couple of neighbors generally are aloof, their children are more outgoing. The daughter grins and laughs bunches, but rarely speaks with me. Yesterday was an exception. She completed, what might be considered a paragraph. It was after I was her audience on her wonderful bicycling back and forth down the street. She's young and not allowed to travel far -- thankfully set limits by rational parents not sending their child to areas to-be-abducted. Since I had a one-sided conversation with her while she rode, she obliged me a short happy-thoughts session before going in with mommy and brother for hot chocolate. She said bye and waved happily to me. I could see in her eye and actions that, while mommy put away the bike, that she wanted to do a cartwheel on the front lawn. That'd be great since, she's four.

It came upon a midnight clear.

MR spoke with me briefly about a person (special) recently diagnosed with a sleeping disorder. While I won't go into any other details there, I'll now type about ME!

In a loom of dreariness, I thought, maybe, just perhaps, sleep means a little bit more+. I wonder if my poor sleep patterns and restlessness might indeed be short-lived sleep disorder. I have tried chemistry only to find disappointment. I know that stress -- ever-lurking is a great satan (advesary) to my rest. Sans job, stress isn't packing up and leaving anytime soon. I have been resting more lately -- quality. I think the sleep has helped me reason a bit better and type in a ... dare I say, legible, readable manner. If only I were in control.

+ paraphrased from How the Grinch Stole Christmas

not-so Fantastic Four (adult themed content)

For background, not nearly as crass Randal, I worked at a video store for a while. The store, owners changing thrice, had a porn section for years. The funny thing there was the range of creative titles, though doubtless stupid films in all. There was Who Reamed Rosie Rabbit, When Harry Ate Sally (this was acutally at another store, but applies), Edward Penishands, and others. I think you understand the segue between hollywood releases and the $9 productions+.

I couldn't immediately sleep last night and thought -- Jessica Alba hottie (until she applies make up, then looking like Bozo -- yuck!) in Fantastic Four. That movie stank! I then, in my near-REM mind thought, hey! Well, it didn't stop at hey, but then rude Fastastic Four (some). The one and only woman has two powers -- invisibility and force fields (telekinetically-based). Why would she need to be invisible, because of course she's the only female! She's hiding from the three super powered horny bastards. In the porn industry, incest isn't tabboo, but in my thinking -- inarguably criminal and sinful. I therefore, extinguished the incest factor of brother and sister.

Anyway, you could quickly put together in your creative mind, if you have one, the powers of "The Thing", Johnny "The Human Torch (he's hot?)", and a man who can stretch any and all parts of his body. The more subvertive, maniacal writer might exchange powers between roles, making one man invisible capable of force fields, then the woman capable of stretching (engulfing) any body part, or any other combination.

I don't rent movies, other than from the library and from Netflix (for the folks, as they like British murder mysteries). I therefore, haven't been in a place to see the new-handsome titles of the adult-film industry. This does, however remind me that in my weak attempt to acquire a version++ of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, I was surprised that the familiar 20th Century Fox logo was missing. I skipped to the one-third or halfway mark to see -- WHOA!

Those aren't Sith, nor stormtroopers, nor Jedi, nor anything of the kind. There was, I guess, sickening force. Why would someone re-label porn? It wouldn't be likely that some person would look for Revenge of the Sith in a secretive way of finding new porn with a "college" setting; not a lick of space scene it in.

What I did see in the 2 minutes of FasForward+++ that I did see before using the Death Star's "cleaning" method were really sick sexual practices. I dare say that I would truly wonder about a woman who favored some of what I viewed. Gosh -- that sure does turn me on, a threesome or foursome--one woman and more mess and gore than end-of-shift KFC kitchen cleaning. It will take a bit of time to clear it from my mind. I did type that I did watch 2 minutes out of curiosity, but gross it was. It was a bad call!

+ porns, from the video store I worked so long ago, cost the company $9 each, yielding profit beginning with the 4th rental.
++ no other details will be given
+++ I watched all of Matrix III; which was worse than Matrix one, which I DESPISED, in FF. Look, it's not like the dialogue kept you on edge, gripped with suspense or academy award winning, nor pinocchio metamorphosis from carboard to three-dimensional living being. There were cutout doll actors in a failed sock puppet play.

I never knew such a critter existed

If you are traveling about and have your furry companion(s) with you, then you probably want to know where you can stay. I found this, in a daft attempt to find something different. I was trying to find the animal resort, where the animals are the ONLY guests. In some places they have, not only deluxe accomodations, but also TV. I'm sure sure how large of areas each are given, and truly some non-den animals would rebel and reject such offers. Other animals -- crate trained, typically respond better, especially when they are given "options" for food -- in "owner" provided or facility-provided.

Anyway, the site posted lists places that allow animals (I think generally fur-bearing typical ones), ie: dogs, cats or smaller vermin that remain in cage at all times. Birds, I believe generally are an exception -- messy, noisy, and now with avian flu a definite tabboo. Repiles and Arachnids are always on the low list of acceptabiliy, namely shorter precidence on companionship. Dogs and cats have been companions for years -- dogs more so and longer.

It's just neat to know that if you wanted a place to stay in the US or abroad, there are places that allow your companion the comfort that you have.

Second year I missed it!

I didn't go this year to my preferred Van Wert Fair excursion in Van Wert, Ohio. There (4-H and other groups have 1 week there) on the campgrounds. I have only ever been there on the weekend, but there are side games, critters galore, farm stuff and horse races, as well as fair rides, food, crafts (for display and for sale), where some youths are recognized for their raising of crops, livestock or even art.

In all, I like this place, for -- I can be entertained for no expense, except for parking $5. I could buy refreshments -- lemon shake up, ice cream, lamb, gyros, brats, burgers, chicken, peanuts -- "rat's smorgosboard"+, but could be equally entertained by seeing livestock I never normally see, including rabbits, piglets, sheep, lamb, calves, goats, burrows, ponies, mink, roosters, wild turkeys (not the drinks), etc. It's on a very large fair grounds, including a full-size horse derby track, where they do race. The grounds are about (maybe) twice that of good ol' Allen County's'.

It was always the signal, the shift from summer to fall for me. I hate not being there. When I did attend school, there was the first four days of school, then Labor Day weekend -- where family and I would go. My neices have been there and liked it -- for the critter menagerie also. They were equally keen on the over-priced, but carnival-only food. My one bad experience with the food was a soup that was served at around 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Why would anyone serve soup that hot? Hint -- if it melts container and/or plasticwear -- it's too blinkin' hot!

Novelty saves it's life

Cute little four-legged chicken is marveled by owners, who have decided to keep it as a pet.
"I'm a freak ... I freak! I'm strange -- I wanna die!"
Relax Wilbur, you're "I wanna die" speech would come moments before the "I wanna live" speech. Do you know what happens to chickens?

No.
They're beheaded, plucked of feathers, gutted then cooked and eaten.
"I wanna live!"
Okay, okay, now Wilbur. We don't need a spider in the corner to tell them you're SOME CHICKEN. Thankfully you have four legs to prove that! You're gonna be okay. You'll live up to the ripe old age of 7, then be buried and dug up by raccoons or oppossums and devoured in partial rigor mortis.

You might, by chance, be mated repeatedly with potential mutant roosters, for more "unique" or "freaky" poultry of your calibur. You'll be an X-chicken egg-laying fool, but loved.

so friggin' funny

Man! This guy makes me look smart! I think, however, I'd be a slightly better stunt co-ordinator. He's just a testosterone fool -- wanting, desperately to show manliness. I did this kind of stuff when a teen, with NO witnesses. It's a fool kind of thing. Wise men say ...

Sex offender back before jury again

Alleged victim is impaired, won’t testify By Dionne Waugh The Journal Gazette

Jurors began hearing testimony Tuesday during a trial for a man accused of sexually assaulting a woman with developmental disabilities who a judge said does not have to testify. Todd L. Anderson, 31, of the 4600 block of Weisser Park Avenue, is charged with attempted criminal deviate conduct, attempted rape, sexual battery and being a habitual offender. Anderson, a twice-convicted child molester, is accused of touching a 26-year-old woman sexually and trying to have sex with her as she waited for her aunt to pick her up Aug. 28, 2005.

During the first day of a scheduled two-day trial, Allen County Prosecutor Karen Richards said the victim had the mind of a child in the body of an adult. “She does kindergarten-level math. Her reading and writing is like a first-grader. She functions as a 6- or 7-year-old child level,” Richards said. “She is, for all intents and purposes, a child.”

The woman, who has an IQ of 52, also suffers from cerebral palsy, which causes her speech to be slurred. A judge ruled that because of her mental state, the woman is a protected person and does not have to testify. The woman cannot understand something as abstract as an oath, Richards said. Richards said the evidence will show that Anderson, who’d known the victim for a long time, lured her into a backyard about 9 p.m. where he partly undressed her and tried to assault her.

“But for the fact that they were interrupted, he would’ve had sex with her,” Richards said.

Someone flipped on a backyard light, she said, which caused Anderson to run away. Defense attorney Mitch Hicks told the jury that Anderson, who has a ninth-grade education, knew the woman well enough to understand her gestures. Anderson told police he did not know she was legally disabled, Hicks said.

“He knew she had problems, but he didn’t know she could not give consent,” Hicks said

Anderson pleaded guilty in Allen Superior Court in November 2003 to child molesting for fondling an 8-year-old girl in December 1999. He was originally convicted in that case in May 2002 of child molesting and being a habitual offender, and sentenced to 20 years in prison. However, the Indiana Court of Appeals overturned the conviction because there were no other witnesses or medical evidence to corroborate the girl’s testimony.

In 1992, Anderson was convicted of criminal sexual conduct in White Pigeon, Mich., that involved a 6-year-old girl.

……..

Thankfully they got this guy who preys on children. His claim of "didn't know" might pan out to 9th grade jurors, but I hope that the jury consists of other persons as well. I will, however, note that Mitch Hicks (his attorney) clearly has run afoul, with a get-my-client-out-of-responsiblity-any-way-I-can attitude, really should be charged with aiding known felon. As for his client -- may his hell start now!

Give That Man a Prize

If confessed murderer Daryl Keith Holton gets his way, on Tuesday he will become the first prisoner to die in Tennessee’s electric chair in 46 years. Holton, who confessed to murdering his three young sons and his ex-wife’s daughter within hours of shooting them to death with a semiautomatic assault rifle, is scheduled to be executed because he quit appealing his death sentence. He also chose the electric chair over the state’s preferred method of lethal injection.

+ When I use the phrase, "Give that man a prize", it is for, albeit late, suicide. I despise his crime, but applaud his way out -- though self-hanging in jail or stabbing himself would reallycheapen his death. I'd get him a guillotine, if I thought he'd use it.

Happy to be Wrong

Woman was reuinited with kidnapped daughter. The apprehension of the perpetrator was aided by a sister-in-law, who was right enough to stop the crime from continuing. For her efforts, I'm sure the mother will be eternally grateful. The abductor, was as many suspected -- distraught woman who (as thought barron) recently miscarried. This might, and I mean might, lead researchers into chemical aid to women suffering post-partem depression, as this can be a wicked experience with varying degrees and duration. It was, thankfully unsuccessfully, tried as a reason that a Texas woman drowned her four/five children, dragging one screaming to his death. My remark simply there, notpost-partem depression, but rather evil wrapped in "insanity".

Gosh -- I'm so insane, I'll have to live a reasonably sane life, never seek counseling and raise all these kids. I'm very smart and can ... wait a moment, I've an IQ of about 94 with some education. I'm not clever at all. Hey, you gotta believe me, I'm mad and hid it well!

Anyway, I guess this will lead to nothing, but perhaps, with enough crime cases shown, society will about burst with crap and decide that enough is friggin' enough! If you see crime -- stop it! That should be the new policy.

Not for a career, but for the discounts ...

I started an online app for Best Buy (or what I throughout my blogs and hereafter will refer Worst Buy or WB for the markup is ridiculous -- oil baronesque). I started the form and they give you a reference ID like for taxes, in case there is a fault somewhere in the process. I thought, okay, whatever. I stopped at page, 50 (or 500 for all I know). It is the worst piece of crap interface I have ever, bar none, ever used. It is almost one window (tab) per page. I'll go back to it soon, but thought if I ever do get hired, I could get some sweet discounts. I'd use it as a weekend/evening job.

I'd be the 40 year-old, non-virgin working at an electronics store. I don't have a fixation on a woman who dumped me, nor an "agreement" with my fiance'/girlfriend, nor am I as crass as an ass, so I guess I am Jack. I saw no female management, so I'd be scared if I was approached as a ***k buddy.

It's just a thought. I'm sure some of you might bump into me thinking, hey ... "What would YOUpay for a 50" plasma TV" or something like that. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge ... know what I mean?

Say no more!

How to scare someone without really trying

On some jobs board, there was a listing for "assisting with young female with disabilities". I called the number and I think the woman about crapped right there. Stammering for a way, she implied that she was, uh ... looking for, um, female ... I have like it narrowed down to a few people.
(Me) So, you have a short list. [here I was trying to give her a graceful out]
Yes, that's right.
(Me) Okay then. Thanks.

It later reminded me of Goldie's comment, "Kayla. You don't have to be afraid. [my name] likes little girls." This, of course, left everyone laughing, sweet Goldie didn't first put it together. "Oh! I didn't mean like that!"

Mel Gibson in ...

The Passion of the Hate. Oh, wait, that's not right. Lethal Words 5, no .... 3 bottles and a little Nazi; still not right. 7 Drinks of Highly Inflamitory Speakers. "Rolling down the street smoking mary, sippin' on gin, hate Jews. Laid waste. With my mind on my money and my money on my mind."

Now, every Mel Gibson-starring movie has rewatchability, where can you spot the predujice/bigotry?

Right there! Did you hear it? Right there! He said it again! He's making schwastikas with his fingers. Since he's not American Indian, I'll suspect it's not a peace/life sign (or the plains Indians ankh).

prediction, about which I hope I'm wrong

There is a "big" story -- or rather a topic about which the media discusses ad nauseum, kidknapped baby, 9 days old. The mother was visciously attacked, the baby stolen. The mother said that she didn't know the attacker. I would guess it was a cult thing and that the baby will not be found ... or found alive.

--- as far as another story ----

There was a 14 year-old kidknapped for days (nearly two weeks), not treated as kidknapping. She got a hold of the perp's cellphone and txt messaged her mother, which lead to her rescue. Now then ... the perp had several bunkers he built to elude police, white male; victim hispanic female ... (generally the rule is sexual predators TEND to stay within their own "race"). What's disturbing is: why was she never listed as kidknapped or that as a possiblity? The aunt they had made a simple statement in distress, relief that her neice was rescued, "Any child should be listed as kidknapped when missing". I won't agree to that, but after a certain number of days, missing is correct and unless there are indications that she'd leave/run away, then law enforcement should consider abduction as a possiblity.

In the second case, the perp has a very tall neck, whereupon hanging him until dead might prove a problem. ("I can't hangs 'em. The one's got no neck and the other one's too light to hang")+ I suggest killing that ass in the same woods he had bunkers and promptly return the biomass to the planet for re-absorption. "I promise I won't kill you, until I get your confession." "That's not very reassuring." ++

"We're going there to kill them, right? Not to study, not to bring back, but to kill them." +++

He's being charged with many things including sex crimes, so ... we know why he abducted her, as if I couldn't have guessed that. I quite frankly don't see the point in processing the person, with paperwork.

"Wait! You don't need that! I'll give tell anything you want!"
"Of course you will."++++

more Celebrity fiction

If they were to remake Arthur, I would suggest Johnny Depp for two reasons: his playing a drunken pirate has given him able experience in doing a drunk, and also that I'm not interested in seeing Arthur Redeux or a Johnny Depp movie (with helpful additions by Tim Burton). George Clooney would be a good bet, but he lack physical comedy.

......... next itme up for bid ..........

I saw a MSNBC discussions on Guantanimo Bay detainees and their treatment. What they were bellyaching about was far kinder than some prisoners receive. I submit: loud noises, extreme temperatures, sleep deprevation, poor quality food (not the case here) are all standard in the course of captivity and warfare. They are allowed to exercise religion, in prayer five times daily toward Mecca, which in their world heracy is met with death. Prisoners would meet no such guarantee of prayer if they were American.

To this, an American general or seargent remarked that the Taliban and Al-Quada didn't take many prisoners, favoring to behead them (noting many videos of prisoner executions).

I think if they want something about which to complain, then the US should be obliging, starting with denial of prayer time ever, denial of legal services (for none would be granted with a role reversal). We could, but shouldn't , also behead a few on video for failing to provide reasonable information.
