I Have Been Tagged

O.k. I guess I was tagged and I had to find my 23rd post and then blog the 5th sentence to see if there was a hidden meaning behind it. Well I found my 23rd post but the sentence was quite boring. Yet in a strange way it describes tonight. That I have to say is very weird. The 5th sentence was, " I am fighting to stay awake just to get the blog thing done this morning." Yes that would pretty much describe tonight to a "T", I made the mistake of taking cold medicine before I went out tonight. Word to the wise DO NOT MIX PRESCRIPTIONS AND ALCOHOL it is a very terrible thing. Maybe that was the hidden message behind tonight and the 23rd entry, that is why I said it was pretty weird. My whole purpose of going out tonight was to relieve my mind of quantitative methods, if you have never had that class consider yourself one of the lucky. I swear it has got to be one of the circles of hell that drives the forces behind it. One class of it and I was ready to jump from the highest building I could find. Not to end anything but to force my mind to think of something so devastating that I wouldn't be thinking of numbers and formulas. O.k this is pretty much a put you to sleep entry so I will go for now and post more when I am more in my head then I am right now. Later!

The Amityville Horror


Sorry it took so long to get back to you all but working full time, going to school full time and this very nasty bronchitis that I picked up recently has just about done me in. Anyhow, here is the lastest movie review for you all. Amityville Horror, 2005. Well what can I say about this one. It was a remake of the original 1979 movie, which I really liked. The remake takes place as the next tennants move into the house a year later. I wasn't to impressed by that idea. I think that a remake should be just that a remake. Not a whole new story that picks up where the old left off. That defeats the whole purpose of calling this one a remake. Maybe it should have been called Another Amityville Horror. The cast was not a bad selection Jimmy Bennett, Ryan Reynolds, Melissa George, Rachel Nichols, Chloe Grace Moretz, Jesse James , Philip Baker Hall,
Jason Padgett , Isabel Conner, and Brendan Donaldson. Not to may high profilers but a few to get you to maybe want to see it. They do throw in the fact that one of the producers is Andrew Form that also produced the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but it wasn't the orginial it was the 2003 remake of the classic. Also staffed into this one is producer Michael Bay who will be doing the 2006 remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre that will be titled The Beginning. We will have to wait on that one. So you have alot of good ideas floating around I just don't think they all went in the right direction. Maybe you would like this one, it does have lots of jumps and a little gore but not much on the whole scary part of a horror movie. I think I would give it a C at best.

Break Is Over, Now Back To The Books


Well school break went so fast it didn't even feel like I had one. I started the next term at school tonight. Project Management is so horrible, I didn't know if I was should fall asleep, vomit, pick my nose, doodle a bit or just try to stay with the lecture. Well I stayed with the lecture and we ended up getting out early. I guess in a way the pain and suffering of that class worked out in the end. Now I only have 9 more weeks left. Ha! Ha! Not to much to report today. I am now just getting ready for another night at work. I will have more for you all tomorrow! Later! Today's piece of artwork is called "Omen" Enjoy!

Weird, Stange and Sometimes Bewildering



Some strange things have been happening around the United States and most just make you laugh or think, What the hell were they thinking?
Here's the laughs for today!

Charlottesville, Virginia- Federal Agents searched an man's house because they believed he possessed illegal drugs. They searched everywhere, and were about to assume that he moved, when they heard a noise coming from the frige. They looked inside and there was the man, calmly drinking a soda.

Sandusky, Ohio- A man was charged with negligent assult after he shot his wife's hat thinking it was a rat. The hat was on his wife's head at the time. The same man had previously shot himself in the foot while trying to shoot a rat.

Kansas- A man was charged with holding up a shoe store. He stole about 70$ in shoes. At his trial the man showed up wearing the boots he stole, with the tags still on. He was found guilty and the shoes were returned to the store.

Tennessee- An inmate escaped from jail and led police on a long chase sometimes reaching 150 mph. When he was caught he stated that he intended to turn himself in all along. He was driving fast because he wanted to get far enough ahead from the police to make it clear he was going to stop.

Woburn, Massachusetts- A baptist church was caught luring children in with pizza, and then baptizing them without parental consent.

Pikeville, Kentucky- A bank robber was easily caught by surveillance cameras. He thought rubbing citric acid on his face would blur the picture, as you can obviously tell, it didn't work.

Ogden, Utah- A man wearing a clown costume went to a mechanic's trailer. The clown asked for a woman named Kathy. After the mechanic denied knowing a person named Kathy, the clown accused him of having an affair with her, and hit him over the head with a lamp. The clown was never found

Appleton, Wisconsin- Darrell Voeks stole $100,000 worth of pigs to help pay for breast implants for his favorite stripper at a club. He got ten years in prison.

Key West, Florida- One restaurant owner killed another during a argument over how to put silverware into a dishwasher correctly.


Mount Shasta, California- Joy Glassman was a loving mother. She always wanted her sons to succeed in life. Then she went to far. Her sons grew up to be firemen, and joy intentionally set fires to help their careers. After five fires in one month she was arrested for arson.

Oh how funny people in the world are. I tell myself how crazy and different I am, but it is so nice to see that I am on a wave length of sanity that is purely inspirational.

Mindhunters


Yet another movie review, this movie Mindhunter came out in January of 2004. I recently rented it at my local movie rental place. I have to say it was rather good. I like a good mind trip movie. I have to warn you it is a suspense thriller, so if blood and gore are not for you then this movie wouldn't be one for you too see.
The movies cast includes, LL Cool J, Val Kilmer, Christian Slater, Eion Bailey, Will Kemp, Jonny Lee Miller, Clifton Collins, Kathryn Morris, Patricia Velazquez. It seems to be a good droup of characters.
The plot is set on a remote island, the FBI has a training program for their psychological profiling division, called "Mindhunters", used to track down serial killers. The training goes horribly wrong, however, when a group of seven young agents discover that one of them is a serial killer, and is setting about slaying the others.
The best aspect of this movie is just when you think you have figured out who it is that is the killer, you are fooled by it.
Here is the link to the movie trailer it can be found within the official Mindhunter site.

Blue Laws Some Still Enforced


I thought I would do a little change up from the norm and write about one of those funny areas in the world that not to many people think about in law. Yet that is exactly what they are "laws" that make hardly any sense yet still could be enforced. They are known as blue laws.

State and local regulations banning various activities on Sundays are called "blue laws." The origin of the term is uncertain. It has been said variously to have originated in the color of the paper on which a code of laws for the early New Haven, Connecticut, colony was printed or to have derived from the concept of being "true blue" to the law. Whatever the origin, these measures, which are based on the biblical injunction against working on the Sabbath, have been traced back to fourth-century Rome, when Constantine I, the first Christian emperor, commanded all citizens, except farmers, to rest on Sunday. The first blue law in America was enacted in the Virginia colony in the early 1600s and required church attendance.
About three-fourths of the states still carry on their books laws imposing some kind of Sunday restriction on such activities as retail sales, general labor, liquor sales, boxing, hunting, or barbering, as well as polo, cockfighting, or clam digging. These laws have been challenged in federal courts as a violation of the Sherman Anti-trust Act and the First Amendment guarantee of freedom of religion. The Supreme Court has upheld them, starting with McGowan v. Maryland (1961), ruling that though the laws originated for religious reasons, the state has a right to set aside a day of rest for the well-being of its citizens.
Nevertheless, Sunday blue laws have declined since the 1960s. A number of states have repealed them, and many municipalities have long ignored those still on their books, simply choosing not to enforce them.


The city fathers in Clinton, Oklahoma have banned local men from masturbating while observing a couple making love in the back seat of a parked car in a drive-in theater.

In North Carolina, it's illegal for a man to peep through a window at a woman—yet it's not against the law for a woman to peep into a room occupied by a man. (Nor is it a violation of the law if a man peeps at another man.)

In Nebraska, buggery, or anal copulation, can bring a whopping 20 years in the penitentiary. And buggery in Pennsylvania can bring transgressors a $5,000 fine and 10 years at hard labor.

Indiana and Wyoming both have laws against anyone's enticing, alluring, instigating, or helping a person under 21 to masturbate. This activity is known in legal circles as an act of "self pollution."

No one may have sex while riding in the sidecar of a motorcycle in Norfolk, Virginia, where an old ordinance outlaws anyone from doing so while cruising down a city street.

It's "an excusable act of passion" in Colombia, South America, for a man to murder his wayward wife when he finds the woman in bed with her lover. If the husband "personally witnesses the corrupt sexual activity," he's allowed to shoot his unfaithful spouse. Such adultery-related homicides aren't even prosecuted.

Women who go out on the streets alone at night in Kansas City, Kansas, can be arrested under an obscure 1901 city ordinance. Any unattended females can be picked up by the police if they are "in the streets or any public place without lawful business and without giving a good accounting of themselves."

An old law in Cattle Creek, Colorado bans a man or his wife from making love while bathing in any lake, river or stream. In other words, anyone who wants to fool around while bathing must do so in a tub, or not at all.

A man can be incarcerated for from one-to-10 years in an Arizona or Washington, D.C., prison for causing his wife to be a prostitute. A man can also get 10 years in Arkansas and 20 years in Maine and Michigan for placing "his spouse in a brothel." In Missouri, it's a "high misdemeanor" for a fellow to "force" his wife to sell sexual services on the streets.

In Skullbone, Tennessee, the law bans a woman from "pleasuring a man" while he is sitting behind the wheel of any moving vehicle. Any man stopped and found with the front of his pants undone can be fined a minimum of $50 and serve 30 days in jail.

These are just a few blue laws that I recently came across, yet if you are as bored as I sometimes get it is fun to see what you can find. I think the funniest part of blue laws is that they are just that "laws" until they are removed by a court of law. Which means by that law you can be prosecuted for a blue law and sometimes saved by one too.

Lord of War


Movie review time has come again. I recently went and saw Lord of Wars. Very excellent movie. It really shows a side to our world that many choose to close there eyes too. Nicholas Cage does a great job protraying a world arms dealer. The point I took from this movie was no matter what you are selling or who you are selling too the bottom line is money. So many believe that is where power lies. Say the government is on the peoples side, that in itself is such a fairy tale told to keep the masses from anarchy. What society does not understand is that the United States does not hold all the money, the world holds all the money. If you control the world you have all the money. This false mind rape belief is what all the power leaders in the world want and in the end of the game called life no one will ever have it. This is why I don't listen to all the bullshit about saving the world, saving the enviroment, saving the galaxy and so forth. We have all the means to SAVE whatever we want, but if the government did all that they really could, wouldn't it be hard to elect the next repersentative if he didn't have an issue to back for his campaign. There always has to be problems for the government to supposably be fighting for us as the people, other wise the people would realize we really don't need the government. Later.

I Don't Know Where to Start!!!



What can I say...I guess this art says it well. It is my nature. In the last month I have been a bitch, a lover, a saint, a star, pathetic, hopeless, lonely, loved, hated, admired, thrown away, brought to light, asleep, awake, sad, happy, moved, touched, stabbed in the back and let's not forget used. Yeah I think for the most part that sums it up. Yes I am glad to back on the web. I missed my place here. I have also missed all of the friends I have made blogging. I want to say I went through a gray area in my life but that would not even be close. It was the blackest, deepest hellhole I could have ever imagined. I was seeing someone that I thought was something, but they turned into a controlling lord of relationships. Ok you all know the kind! I myself after 31 years of life was dumb enough to let this person control me. I know for those that know me it is rather unbelieveable. Well it took me about a month to figure out that this person was using me to ease his own insecurities in life. That was the easy part. I knew that he was not going to be the type of person to just let me out of the relationship without a HUGE arguement, that I really can't stand. More then anything in the world. So I played the bitch and ended it. No phone call no explanation no nothing. Just done. I went through a weekend of 3 days with 64 phone calls on my caller ID from him. When that didn't work he showed up at my door I don't know how many times. I woke up one morning to post it notes all over my door. He had it stuck in his head that I was, getting back with my ex and that I was on drugs. Ok for one there is no way I would get back with my ex. For two, I don't want to do drugs that was episode 15 in my life and I try not to play re-runs. Low and behold I think that he has gotten the clue and I haven't heard from him except that my messenger is full of offline messages. I will probably be hearing from him on here soon. I hope not. It has been almost a month since I have seen him and I am now seeing someone new that is really a great guy. I'm not going to go into the details of that because I think my personal life will stay with in my home and not on my computer. I am now on vacation from school till the 10th of October so I am taken it ease and relaxing until then. One more term of school down. All I can keep telling myself is that it will end soon and I will be done. Yeah me!!!! Later
