What Had Happened....

I'm not a huge fan, however, I am kinda geeked after reading that Stephen King has finished writing the sequel to "The Shining". The Synopsis to "Doctor Sleep" looks VERY intriguing.  To read about what and who the little boy from the story/movie became- click HERE
Here's an R2D2 rain barrel. HERE
So JP Morgan lost $2 billion dollars? Too big to fail? Bah! The soundbites from the CFO and CEO, though sincere, are laughable.

Lot's of famous people died this week. Hmmmmm. 

It looks like the "updated" Mayan calendar delays the end of all that we know.. Here it is
The US Navy sez they're hurting sea life and wonders what anybody's gonna do about it. Click THIS for the story.
Here's an R2D2 coffee maker. YUM
Some Democrats are wanting their National convention this year to find somewhere else other than Charlotte to be held after the marriage definition vote last week. HA!

Here's some Star Wars pancakes (featuring R2D2). DELICIOUS!
Have you seen "The Avengers" movie yet? Here's an article regarding The Hulk and how Lou Ferrigno help voice the character. Click HERE.  I had NO idea that the late Ted Cassidy - Lurch on the old "Addams Family" TV show voiced the intro on Lou Ferrigno's TV show and iconic growl.

Check out one minute of Rhianna's performance of her little diddy entitled "Birthday Cake". And you thought Michael Jackson grabbing his crotch was insane?

Could the infamous 'Jack The Ripper" have been a woman? Hmmmmm,



Have you seen the controversial Time Magazine Cover? The bottom line is that Time, like any other magazine, is in the business of selling magazines and bringing attention to itself be it in the print version or online. Of COURSE breastfeeding is a natural, bilogical act. Of COURSE it shuldn't be a big deal to show it on a cover of an internationally distributed printed periodical. As a matter of fact, breastfeeding kids as old as 5 or 7 years old is perfectly acceptable in other parts of the world. 26 year old Jamie Lynn Grumet and her nearly 4 year old son has captured the nation. She is a model and an author of several online blogs about being a mom. She recently adopted a little girl from some third world country like Indoneshia or something. Good for her!Gumet evidently is happy enough to get naked in front of other people (which there may be nothing wrong with—for her). She instructed her son to suck his mother’s nipple in front of a photographer and makeup artist and art director in a studio of bright lights and the clicking and whirring of digital cameras. I mean, to me, it's like having a photographer and makeup artist and art director in a studio of bright lights and the clicking and whirring of digital cameras while someone uses the bathroom. How weird is this for "the kid"? To me, if you're on the side of "it's no big deal breastfeeding out in public or in front of cameras", how does this NOT take the "no big deal, it's natural" aspect away from the issue? What say you?

and finally, so MY President has evolved and "come out" for same sex marriage. A liberal Democrat supports same sex marriage and it's major news? I just wonder if he was pushed into flip flopping publicly on the issue or are my conspiracy pals right and this whole thing is an orchestrated ploy? It just shows MY president is a typical politician. One one hand you have this week's revelation on ABC with Robin Roberts, on the other hand, you have multiple appearances like Obama sitting with Rick Warren and stating "God's involved and marriage should be defined only as a union between a man and woman". Meanwhile, after a HUGE fundraiser at Clooney's place over the weekend, MY President is standing tall. Some say Obama's divisive by his personal evolutionary statement. Some say this is one of many subjects that will be pushed towards the forefront of the problems with the economy. Personally, I don't think this will sway too many voters who blindly vote for one party or another or one candidate or another simply because of the political jersey they wear. What do YOU think?
