Month: September 2013

There are a few thoughts going around my head tonight after watching Pres. Obama addressed the nation.
The first thing I am struck by is probably quite dumb to even mention, but it bothers me: He never sits at the desk in the Oval Office to address us, instead he typically stands at a podium.. Bush did this two on a few occasions, but I just don’t like it.. To me that large desk with those bland drapes behind him and the photographs of his wife and children provide a more commanding platform for a leader to address the people..

But that really is not what mattered tonight..

We sure have come along way since 9/11/2001, and along way since Benghazi last 9/11..

Somehow Vladimir the Impaler Putin has managed to broker some form of a diplomatic solution to Syria, has backed Barack Obama into a strange corner, and has delayed a US strike on that nation..

Tonight on CNN, Andrew Sullivan told Anderson Cooper that the Obama speech persuaded him to back war.. Or whatever it is we would call it..

I do not know if it feels like the run-up to war or not, as suddenly the table has turned. The speech tonight that Obama gave was awkward and strange..

What seemed like a sure bet only a day ago suddenly turned into a doubtful course of action throughout the past 24 hours thanks to mother Russia..

No word from Vlad on what Edward Snowden thanks, I am sure the powers that be know what he thinks.

Meanwhile, the leader of the free world has told us to download videos and watch children be killed by chemical weapons.

What a strange, creepy, and truly frightening world we live in..

President Obama has announced tonight in an address to then nation that a delay to strike Syria will be delayed.. and that he will pursue diplomatic angles with Vladimir Putin

Amazing foreign policy developments over the past 24 hours–and it appears Russia is steering the global ship..

Ison is on the way! It will light up our winter sky..
Unless the sun zaps it..

The earth was warming and then it was cooling.. An ice age  is coming? Maybe not.. But a website is examining what recent data may mean..
Interesting stuff..

MONDAY SEPTEMBER 9 2013

I often forget the year.. the month.. the day. Lately I forget the minute. Life is confusing enough, but with headlines like Arsenio Hall being back after almost two decades full, and Britney Spears being back, bitches, it’s easy to neglect your calender and think you’re still in the last century. With some help, and some worrisome headlines, you’re about to get zoomed into the past, present, and the future.. all in one Monday morning update. Good day all, read them and weep..
There was a ton of news last night I wanted to get to, but never found the time. But no worry for me, it was …FOOTBALL SUNDAY!
…and a war is coming.
What matters to you more?

Some Syrian morning:
CNN receives and shows Syria horror videos of the chemical attack, with men, women, and children shirtless and convulsing on the floor dying, while panic and screams in the background are occurring.. Sure, the media doesn’t play sides.
The ‘rebels’ take Christian village in Syria..
Assad has given his first interview since the chemical attack happened, with Charlie Rose.. he denied the chemical attack was conducted at his request, he said the United States had no evidence of it being his government.. and he said he would retaliate if attacked..
The Obama Administration has denied AP’s call to release Syria evidence..
TIME TABLE: John Kerry is giving Assad one week to ‘turn in’ chemical weapons..

Mrs. Graham confronts war-weary South Carolinians on Syria .. and threatens that his state could be hit by a nuclear strike!

Tokyo’s 2020 Radiation Olympics

Remember the Marine’s who urinated on dead Taliban fighters and stupidly put it online? The Marine Corps has dropped case..

This is all becoming very old news (sadly it’s not making anyone concerned anymore): The NSA has the ability to tap into the personal information on your smartphone.. Oh, I am sure power will never be abused..

Rumors and fears over the November 13 simulated power outage drill..

A new Twitter program can map a nation’s mood..

107-year-old man killed in shootout with police..

17 children injured when festival ride suddenly stops..

Suntory Beverage & Food Ltd. has agreed to acquire GlaxoSmithKline PLC’s drinks brands Lucozade and Ribena for $2.1 billion in a deal that would allow it to beef up its presence in Europe and tap emerging markets such as Africa..

THE PORN INDUSTRY HAS SOME NEW CONCERNS AS A FOURTH ACTOR IS CONFIRMED HIV POSITIVE..

A Christian website that often questions and slams movies over content is turning to the pigskin: Should Christians watch football, they ask.. but don’t those football players always thank God after their victory dance and touchdown..?
I am pretty sure Jesus would be a Raiders fan.

the New York POST reports that RFK’s secret diary (obviously now not a secret) will make Al Shapron, Jesse Jackson, and Governor Cuomo angry.. Apparently he also had a whole part dedicated to his adultery, and 37 women had scored from 1 to 10..

4-year-old dies after brain-eating amoeba infection..

Dennis Rodman says that Lil Kim UN is the father of a baby girl.. And she’d be perhaps the only lucky North Korean girl, someone born in luxury instead of deplorable poverty.. someone who can be healthy, instead of suffering in rape camps or torture prisons, working until dying at a young life. Yes, Kim Jong Un, congrats. Will Dennis Rodman be the Godfather?

Mysterious actions of Chinese satellites have experts wondering what the nation is truly doing in space..

She’s just being Miley: Cyrus virus can’t stop twerking, this time doing it on a German TV show with ‘little adults’.. I think the bigger story is that Germany has an show of ‘little adults’..

Britney’s back, bitches..

Lady Gaga in hiding–behind weird mask

Arsenio Hall back to talk show circuit Monday night .. after being away for 19 years..

Paper: Too few movies are good at horror..

Remake of POLTERGEIST being shot.. I am still immensely angry that classic GREAT movies are being remade–films that have no need to be redone again. It was one thing when Rob Zombie soaked Halloween with gore and blood.. but POLTERGEIST? This movie is in a class by itself–spiritual, emotional, deeply horrific… and now someone is coming along and thinking they could do better than Spielberg…Gil Keenan is no Spielberg.

GERMAN PAPER: ASSAD DID NOT ORDER CHEMICAL ATTACK!

BLA OFFICE: ‘RIDDICK’ IN WEAK
