People are strange..
So I have another website, as some may know, and I put a little funny comment on there about how OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN came in second place this weekend at the box office. And wouldn’t you know it, I actually got a death threat about it..
Seriously people? This movie has caused you to have so much emotion that you …. issue death threats? Fatwas? It’s a terrible (probably stupid) action movie about a terrorist attack.. Like we haven’t seen that before. Seriously…
A death threat. Over a lame movie.
Go figure.
Oh the other site is HorrorReport.com in case you were wondering.
A St. Clair, PA man assaulted a woman over her political beliefs. And it happened in his business location...
Seriously, this is nuts:
Saint Clair police Patrolman Frank DiMarco said, Prutzman, owner of The Trading Post Pawn Shop on South Second Street, assaulted the woman at the business after becoming enraged at her for supporting and voting for Obama.
The woman, who was not identified, suffered a severe laceration to the right side of her forehead, cuts and scrapes on her head, neck and ear and appeared to have dirt on her coat and scuffs on her knees and clothing, DiMarco said.
DiMarco said the argument began about 9:30 p.m. Friday over the woman’s political views at which time Prutzman threw her against walls.
As the story goes.. the victim also said that as she tried to get away, her neck was grabbed and her head was thrown off the ground…
Heck of a way to conduct business at a pawn shop, isn’t it?

I spent a little too much time this weekend reading news accounts of horrible situations
Locally, here in the coal region this morning, two beautiful young children died in a car accident.. Tonight I was reading about a child who died at an Atlanta airport after a display sign fell on him.. I am still following up about the story of the child in Georgia who was killed in his stroller, it was the second child who died on the mom—another older boy died in New Jersey in gun violence..
And you know what? I am sick of it all.
It’s not bad enough that I have a cold/flu type of a thing for about a week.. but all of this mental pressure was probably too much for me.
No news is good news.
The happiest people sometimes skip to the sports section..
But I cannot.
Instead, I broil with anger and simmer with agony at daily headlines from sea to bloody sea…
This is one crazy messed up world, don’t you think?

The kid culture ... and it's now on the catwalk
The UK INDEPENDENT reports on the ‘strangest week’ in fashion ever.. as children very young walk down the catwalk modeling clothing from top designers..
The INDEPENDENT reported it this way:
It is like any other high-fashion catwalk show – but with one small difference. This is the first Global Kids Fashion Week, and here the threat of tantrums and inappropriate behaviour comes not from the usual bitchy fashion crowd but from a pack of extravagantly styled toddlers. In the front row, mothers discreetly wrestle their uncontainable tots back into their £100-a-ticket seats just in time to see an army of beautiful children take to the runway.
“There is a huge market for kids’ fashion,” explains Alex Theophanous, one half of the online children’s store AlexandAlexa.com, who co-organised the inaugural event at London’s Freemason’s Hall. “The market is significantly bigger than ever before. We felt the time was right to take children’s fashion centre stage.”
Some may enjoy the show.. Perhaps the same people who watch countless reality programs …
They may call it cute.
They may think it’s adorable.
I’d call it exploitation … I’m frankly getting creeped out by these types of things lately..
The kid culture ... and it's now on the catwalk
A cold and wintry day at the Girardville PA parade..
You’d think since it’s spring I’d be getting some nice sun.. But no, thanks to cold and wintry winds, I am now sporting that lavish mid-January chapped ‘wind burn’ George Hamilton kinda look..

Missing dogs and ritualistic animal killing in Idaho
People finding dogs stoned to death.. others had their skulls crushed and their bodies are found with purple cloth..
Something strange is happening.
It sounds to me like local authorities and friendly human society may need to call someone in who thinks more along darker lines.. There is obviously a darker issue taking place here..

This is one cool rockin’ Pope.
Francis will not be conducting a mass at the typical place others have. According to the TELEGRAPH, he’s heading to a prison instead.
Nick Squires from the TELEGRAPH reports,
Francis, who has broken the mould with his informal approach and unscheduled walkabouts, will conduct next week’s Holy Thursday service in a prison for young offenders on the outskirts of Rome.
The service is normally held either in St Peter’s Basilica or in the Church of St John in Lateran, which is the Pope’s church in his capacity as Bishop of Rome.
This guy gets cooler and cooler all the time.
Keep on rockin’ in the free world, Bergoglio
Police in the UK have allowed rich, famous, politicians, and celebrities, be protected from child sex investigations for decades
It all started with the Jimmy Saville story.. and now …
This is how the UK INDEPENDENT reports it:
Celebrities and politicians were protected from child sex investigations because hundreds of police intelligence files were kept so secret that investigating officers could not access them, it has been reported
This is the truth that few will report, few want to hear, and few want to think about.
It’s also the truth that needs to be reported, needs to be heard, and not only needs to be thought about but needs to be thoroughly investigated..
And while you’re at it, you may want to YouTube and search for CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE and get information on Franklin Cover-up.. It’s not just in the Catholic Church, or the BBC, or in dark places. It’s right in front of us.

Really. A shape shifting alien guarding the President.. ?
Probably not.
But it sure makes for great YouTube and internet entertainment.
According to a video, a Secret Service agent guarding President Barack Obama could be a shape shifting alien!
Here is the video for your reference:
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR13y76Itks]
The video was uploaded on March 19, 2013. It has a computerized narrator, which describes that a shape shifting alien is caught up somehow guarding the President..
And of course comments are already mocking the video.
I enjoyed it myself.
I don’t assume the person is uploading to be funny. I saw other videos posted by the same user, and the account promotes videos about Satanism in the music industry and other Christian-based themes.
And shape shifting aliens.
So the user may believe this is a shape shifter.. But take away that fact from it and it becomes a truly amazing video.
As funny as it may seem, and as ludicrous as it may sound, this man does in fact look like some sort of alien being. Then again, should it not be the job of a Secret Service agent to scare the pants off of anyone who would get close to the President? And on that note, this agent succeeds magically.

Rumors and rumbles: What is New Jersey *and many other places* shaking?
Rumble in the Garden State..
Many websites had information about rumblings, booms, and tremors the other day…They remain a mystery, though all the likely sources like planes and military say they aren’t responsible . Is it natural gas? Chris Christie running for another donut? A calamity coming to earth? …booms from aliens? Lots of strange theories abound. And while some laugh at those who are claiming the sky is falling, they don’t have any explanation themselves. Why did these booms take place, and where did three counties feeling the ground underneath them shake? This is a perplexing issue, isn’t it? And one that we should treat with some more respect instead of just mocking people who are fearful that the crust is shaking under our shoes. ..
The thing I find the most fascinating about this story (and various others when they occur across the world) is that big media doesn’t show up to cover it. It’s local affiliates small newspapers.. not CNN, FOX, or MSNBC.. instead people who want answers need to trudge through the millions of websites to find reliable coverage someone from a local network .. and even those stories shed little light on a subject that I believe demands greater attention..
Look.. you have a massive sinkhole in Louisiana that gets no attention. Sinkholes in Florida.. a man swallowed on a golf course on the 14th hole.. and years now of booms, rattles, tremors, all across the crust of the planet. There is something happening. Maybe science can explain it calmly and collectively. But no one from the science community has addressed it. Instead we’re left to our own demons.. speculating about what the noises could be, while others in the ‘mainstream’ laugh at conspiracy theorists who want answers.
Until you hear the booms or your house shakes, perhaps you won’t care. But when it happens to you? A whole different story —and if you’re a reporter, maybe a story you’d finally be willing to cover.

It feels like the early 90s all over again, except with a bigger chin
A late night talk show host from NBC bashing NBC as executives work behind the scenes to get rid of him and hire someone else… Leno did it to Letterman in ‘92-‘93.. Now he is being forced to take it on the chin himself as he’s being edged out in place of Fallon on the TONIGHT SHOW..
And with that, TONIGHT will be back in New York City…

Even more alarmingly, Gosnell instructed unlicensed workers to sedate patients with dangerous drugs in his absence… In addition, he regularly performed abortions beyond the 24-week limit prescribed by law. As a result, viable babies were born. Gosnell killed them by plunging scissors into their spinal cords. He taught his staff to do the same

At the trial, a worker admitted killing at least 10 babies by cutting their spines..

This was Blake Miller, the famed ‘Marlboro Man’ of the Iraq war.
One simple image changed his life..
Today’s Iraq war news articles have been quite the stroll down amnesia lane…
Long range forecasts do continue to suggest a major snowstorm for the region early next week, with snow possible for places like Washington, DC, Philadelphia, PA, and New York City. Unlike tomorrow’s weak, light passing system, the next storm could be quite significant.
Weatherboy Weather, my favorite Facebook Weather page..
And I agree, from the models I have been watching, this could be a big one..
I have two reactions to this story from the UK DAILY MAIL about springer breakers gone bad.
1) It’s the DAILY MAIL, and they want to show scantily clad images of kids to sell some ad space and scare parents.
2) It’s the future of the world, being arrested for binge drinking… looking horridly ugly.. beer goggles to the utmost. Yep, the kids aren’t alright.

This seems to be a truly tragic and sick story from Pontiac, Michigan. This woman, a 75-year-old grandmother named Sandra Layne, gunned down her 17-year-old grandson named Jonathon Hoffman.
Prosecutors called the scene a massacre, and want Layne to be convicted of murder.. Layne says it was in self defense, and that Hoffman in self-defense..
According to the AP report on the shooting:
Layne testified last week that she was afraid of her grandson and acted in self-defense. She said she shot him after he struck her while arguing over his demands for money and a plan to flee Michigan. Hoffman had failed a drug test earlier that day, which could have been a parole violation.
Walton reminded jurors that Layne didn’t report any injuries to police when they arrived at her home after the shooting.
"Not I was afraid, I acted in self-defense, he came after me," Walton said. "I murdered. I shot. I killed — those are her first statements to law enforcement. … She hunted down Jonathan Hoffman because he wouldn’t listen."
He called it a “massacre.”
I don’t know how the jury will find her.. I can’t say I heard about this until today. And every murder is tragic.. but something seems exceptionally tragic about a grandmother shooting her grandson, regardless of why..

If you’re not a fan of wintry weather, you’re not going to like this…
Mid and long range models show more winter weather is on the way for the Mid Atlantic and Northeast, with another threat of accumulating snow likely early next week. There does not appear to be any significant warm-up for the balance of the month. In this region, you’ll need to wait longer for milder spring weather to arrive.
I almost had to laugh when I saw it.. I almost had to … cringe when I thought about it.
I checked some other weather sources and actually checked some other weather models on my own that I had bookmarked, and .. yes.. there is a storm on the map. It would be wintry. And this is the winter that never ends..

The Pope of surprises.. now he’s making speeches off the cuff, scaring people by showing up in different places around the Vatican, and kissing babies..
As NBC news reported this morning:
Earlier, he began his first Sunday as pontiff by making an impromptu appearance to the public from a side gate of the Vatican, startling passersby and prompting cheers, then kept up his simple, spontaneous style by delivering a brief, off-the-cuff homily at the Vatican’s tiny parish church.
What’s next Francis?! Hand gliding into St. Peter’s Square? Opening the Vatican vault? GETTING RID OF PEDOPHILE priests? This Pope is so zany he may just do it..
Five men have confessed to gang-raping a Swiss tourist in central India, authorities said Sunday.
Police said they will give out more information at a news conference later in the day.
A CNN news alert ..meanwhile in America, all eyes will be on Steubenville today as that rape trial verdict will be handed down..

I haven’t been to church in 15 years. But the new pope makes me wonder if I should go back
A friend of mine.. and a Catholic, who like all Catholics, leaves the faith at some point.
I can say it is interesting that the shear humility that Bergoglio displays may be enough to re-kindle that magic that once was that Catholic church experience.
After all.. what Catholics or former ones don’t get that tingly feeling of joy thinking about the ruler and yardstick beatings at the hands of nuns.. or the hours of mind-numbing Catechism class? Doing it old-school, by the book. big rosaries.. no time for smiles. Just pray. PRAYER DAMMIT, PRAY!
Ok… I had a flashback.
Nonetheless.. anyone who is Catholic or was born such can be happy that finally there’s a Pope who isn’t just dressing fancy and looking like Palpatine from Star Wars.. That’s right.. now we have a Pope with ratty old shoes, a big midsection, and no fancy-dancy outfits with gold-plated underwear.
I just wonder.. will he drive a Popemobile? In keeping with his style.. I figure he’ll be riding high in a Geo Metro. Pope style.
Men who like bigger breasts are more sexist, so they the experts and studies.
The men who reblog or like this post simply because of the woman pictured with giant breasts probably fit into that category.. but do I for posting it? I hope not.
Next time my wife tells me I need new shoes, I’m just going to tell her I’m now being ‘pope-like.’
Here we see an image of Pope Francis’ crusty old pair of black plain (most likely wide-width) tires.. No red Prada like the last pontiff.. no pearls, jewels, pink laces, or sashes.. Just plain old shoes.
I like his style..
New data is revealing just how many abortions took place in China in the last 40 years
Since 1971, doctors have performed 336m abortions and 196m sterilisations, the data reveal. They have also inserted 403m intrauterine devices, a normal birth control procedure in the west but one that local officials often force on women in China
The numbers do not directly equate to “missing” births because some couples who violate the one-child rule have also had abortions or been sterilised, while intrauterine devices can be removed

Expect to see this photo popping up all over your internet sites of choice.. it’s the Pope, with a photo reportedly not photoshopped, featuring a shadow of.. SATAN?
It was uploaded by Clyde Lewis, the radio host I have recently gotten to love..
And while it’s simply a second in time image of a Cardinal’s hat coupled with a longer shadow due to lights ,it certainly makes for interesting conspiracy ..

The Facebook generation can detect falseness and hypocrisy a mile away. They are the core of the ‘leave me alone’ coalition. They doubt that Social Security will be there for them. They worry about jobs and money, rent and student loans. They want leaders that won’t feed them a line of crap or sell them short. They aren’t afraid of individual liberty. Ask them whether we should put a kid in jail for the nonviolent crime of drug use and you’ll hear a resounding no. Ask them if they want to bail out Too-Big-To-Fail banks with their tax dollars. And you’ll hear a hell no. There is nothing conservative about bailing out Wall Street.

I have two websites, as some of you may know. The other one is the HORRORREPORT.COM, where I espouse crazy conspiracy theories, UFOs, ghosts, and all that jazz. Fun stuff.. paranormal and para-political. But tonight, something freaked me out. The photo you see here is a screen cap of what occurred at 6:06 pm this evening.. my hit counter read 666666, and the headline on the top of the site was somewhat mocking the new Pope calling him “A Pope named Francis,” sort of an allusion to a BOY NAMED SUE by Johnny Cash.
So … as a boy born and raised Catholic would do, I rarely go to Church. I am considering it now though.. the trail of 6’s alarmed me.
I know, I know.. it’s all fake. Not real. No worries. Just numbers. And I know at least four of my followers on a somewhat personal basis to know enough that they are atheists.. So they will tell me it’s all hogwash to begin with. Why fear numbers if there’s no God or Satan..
But something chilled me… A little.
Of course, it is the HORROR REPORT. That’s where scary things are supposed to happen.

Birds of a feather Assisi together.
While the world was waiting for the new Pope to be revealed, before the white smoke was even rising, birds were resting on the chimney at St. Peter’s Square..
Perhaps only odd because of the Pope’s name. St. Francis of Assisi had a love for animals…his is often painted with birds circling him. And then Cardinal Bergoglio chosen St. Francis as his name, after Francesco di Pietro di Bernardone….
Interesting stuff. I’m sure purely coincidental. right?
THE PROPHECY OF THE POPES? Grasping at straws or seeing things others don't
Here have been tons of rumors about the Malachy Prophecy of the Popes. You can always check my other site, HorrorReport.com, if you want to see more about that.. In the meantime, on this site I’ll keep things a little more subdued. But i thought I’d reprint an email I shared with friends early this morning:
Subject:
Food for thought
So with ‘Francis’ being named Pope, it’s a common thought that the ‘prophecy of the popes’ has been undone. Or that it was never real to begin with.. But a few elements that people are neglecting to think about on the veracity of the prophecy:
1) Bergoglio is a Jesuit. In the prophecy, the final pope would try to re-establish supremacy of the Catholic Church—something that Jesuits are known for since their main mission is to stop Protestantism from spreading.
2) He took his name from St. Francis of Assisi. The interesting part of that is St. Francis’ full name was Francesco Di Pietro di Bernardone. One priest commentator on CNN last night actually mentioned how, in the Vatican, Bergoglio may be known both as “Francis and Peter”
3) Cardinal Bergoglio obviously was from South America—but both of his parents were Italian.
And finally, whoever saw Pee Wee Herman’s Big Adventure will surely understand this.. In the film, Pee Wee’s bike was stolen by his neighbor causing him to travel to psychics, giant dinosaurs, and the Alamo’s supposed basement in Texas. And neighbor who stole it was named Francis. How ironic now that Bergoglio picked Francis. Coincidence? You decide. I say we check his Church for stolen bikes.
Ok .. now EVERYONE BACK TO WORK!

I was 13 years young.. not a care in the world—certainly not worried about anyone else. After all, I had three feet of snow in my front yard to play in, and a story of memories. As I said before, even as a kid, I recall that I realized I was living through history. I enjoyed weather and news—I was a TIME and NEWSWEEK magazine subscriber my whole life since 10 after all..
We haven’t had a storm like this in ages.
It was the ‘true’ superstorm.. One that will take quite a bit to be matched.
Andre Linoge was walking around somewhere along the East Coast that week in 1993.. I guarantee it.

DON’T CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA
It’s also being reported that Francis I did not want to be Pope..
Along with his age, he also only has One long, as it was removed when he was younger..
Despite many people believing that the Catholic Church would pick a progressive pope, this Argentinian certainly will not be applauded by those who are more progressive and liberal within the religion.. Look no further handstands on the controversial abortion issue, he is much more hard-line than many popes have been..

Keep your beer goggles on. Just don't wear Google glasses. A dive bar in Seattle has become the first place to ban the Google Glasses..
This is what will greet patrons:
And even though the article sort of makes a mockery of the owner and the bar, the points he makes are valid and …quite frankly, I agree wholeheartedly.
I understand a public place is not one where you go to find privacy.. but there’s something different about a dark and smoky bar. Well I guess not smoky, since cigs are banned in places, too.. but you catch my drift.
With Google Glass, all is known.. all is live.. all is streamed. No secrets.
Let’s keep some places sorta private? Please? Let’s keep the dive bar on AnyCorner, USA, a little under the radar? Without that, there’d be no place left to go!

This is a rather creepy photo of Justin Bieber.
The DAILY MAIL reports,
Teen pop idol Justin Bieber turned to Hollywood megastar Will Smith for support and advice amid the chaos surrounding his UK tour last week, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
The Men in Black actor - himself a former child star - became a mentor and ‘father figure’ to the singer as what should have been a triumphant tour was rocked by a string of public relations disasters.
Smith was in London chaperoning his own 14-year-old son Jaden – one of three support acts on Bieber’s sell-out ‘Believe’ tour.
This is all just getting weird, isn’t it?
Justin Bieber is weird already.. but the latest strangeness surrounding his collapse, his gas mask, and his attempt at an erotic tweet of himself in the hospital…. is all just creepy.
He is crashing and burning.. the kid that grew up on YouTube and became a name across the world… isn’t handling fame well, lately.
But who would, really?
Maybe the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is exactly what he needs..

A Saturday night scare, courtesy of space
There is a comet in the Western sky tonight. That’s not the scary part.
The scary part is this: An asteroid, only discovered six days ago, is passing relatively close to earth. And it’s as big as a city block—something that would have done a bit of hardcore damage on this planet should it have been heading this way. Luckily for us it’s not, as the Saturday night beer is still cold at your local watering hole.
But this Reuters story is worth reading, and thinking about.. and worrying about..
The money quote:
An asteroid as big as a city block shot relatively close by the Earth on Saturday, the latest in a series of visiting celestial objects including an asteroid the size of a bus that exploded over Russia last month, injuring 1,500.
Discovered just six days ago, the 140-metre long Asteroid 2013 ET passed about 950,000 km from Earth at 3:30 p.m. ET. That’s about 21/2 times as far as the moon, fairly close on a cosmic yardstick.
“The scary part of this one is that it’s something we didn’t even know about,” Patrick Paolucci, president of Slooh Space Camera, said during a webcast featuring live images of the asteroid from a telescope in the Canary Islands.
Moving at a speed of about 41,843 km/h, the asteroid could have wiped out a large city if it had impacted the Earth, added Slooh telescope engineer Paul Cox.
It could have wiped out a city.
And even more alarming, it’s something no one knew about until only a few days ago.. hours, really.
This seems to be the year of the asteroid, the comet, and the ‘disaster.’ So the Mayan were wrong. December 21 ended nothing. But.. what if it began everything?
Professionals are getting ready.. The white smoke will announce a pope. But before that happens, firefighters are getting pieces in order:
The AP reports:
Firefighters on Saturday installed the top of the Sistine Chapel chimney that will signal to the world that a new pope has been elected, as the Vatican took measures to definitively end Benedict XVI’s pontificate.
While construction workers prepared the interior of the frescoed Sistine Chapel for Tuesday’s start of the conclave, officials elsewhere in the Apostolic Palace destroyed Benedict’s fisherman’s ring and the personal seals and stamps for official papers.
The act, coupled with Benedict’s public resignation and pledge of obedience to the future pope, is designed to signal a definitive end of his papacy so there is nodoubt in the church that a new pope is in charge.
It all begins Tuesday.
And call me misinformed, but I never knew they took the chimney away.. I thought it was just always there.. ready to billow out black and white smoke whenever the good Lord called on it to do so..
They all float down there, too, right? Next you’ll tell me that’s not true either..
